Mom jeans for 2014 anyone …?!

So fashion month will finally come to a close today … Let’s continue a little with the makeover of the pants department of our wardrobe! For all those contrarians, who want to move just a little away from their beloved low waisted skinnies this fall, I already introduced you to the 70ies flared pants trend here on the blog. And to make them a little more easy to wear we already talked cropped flared, which is surely going to turn into something big after Nicolas Ghesquière brought them onto the runway at his incredible spring 2015 show (#lvspring) staged at the new LV Foundation today! Besides that there is another pants trend around – Its the classic high waist straight – sometimes called “mom jeans” or “dad pants” by the fashion press!

Just to be honest I never put that style really aside. Levi’s 501 are a fashion icon and I personally feel that no matter whats trending at a given time or place – a Levi’s 501 that fits well is always appropriate in a casual context!!! So where to buy classic straight jeans? Levis 501 classic men’s jeans or in case they don’t fit the woman’s version! If you really want to splurge on the style – The Row Norland is incredible!

So whats your opinion? “Mom jeans” hot or not? How do you wear them?
