Barrel Leg Jeans Work for Everyone! Buying and Styling Guide

[@hair399]

Bought some extra wide barrell leg jeans back in 2020 and love them - YESNO Women Casual Loose Cropped Pants Denim Bloomers Elastic Waist with Pockets

I'm currently enjoying my first pair of barrel leg jeans, which I refer to as my Giddy-Up pants. They're not necessarily the most figure flattering, but they are fun, very similar to overalls. I love the high rise with the balloon starting at the lower thigh, with a true ankle length inseam.

Love the term “giddy-up” pants 😄

I love the shape as they remind me of the Japanese tobi trousers with an American (80s) twist. I have a vintage cropped jean jacket with a similar detail in the sleeves. I for one enjoy mixing things up. Great job.

[@shortnotsweet]

Ohh I’ll have to check out those tobi trousers! They sound really cool 😊

[@KendraMcGregory]

I think they are cute, but I haven't seen them on a thick person. I ordered some. It was oversized and it was sold out in a better size.

[@shortnotsweet]

Oh no, I hope they bring your size back in stock!

Thank you for replying so quickly. It's so funny that just today I saw a lady in my grocery store with BLJ. She looked so chic. I shared with her that I just watched your vid and how you inspired me . She has a vlog and I will share it later, I met her at the supermarket. We talked about BLJ and fashion in the spice isle for 20 minutes about how we style our BLJ's. By the way she rocked, which unusual for our little " Mayberry-ish community and northern Maryland suburb. Most women are suburban Mom-ish " Sports Moms. No Negative intended: I was one of those mom's of a scholar athlete, I just always expressed my individual style. Again TFS and replying.

[@shortnotsweet]

Aww, I love that! Fashion bringing people together ❤️ Please do share her blog. Thanks so much for watching the video!

[@shortnotsweet]

Right?! I just got the white ones on sale and I love them!

[@hair399]

The Amazon ones are EXTREME barrel. Very cool!

[@shortnotsweet]

Those sound like fun, might have to try them out!

[@karenwhite9989]

@@shortnotsweet : The Amazon brand is very chic. They were my first pair of BLJ. After that I was hooked. My second two pair was from Zara . I get compliments every time I wear them especially with my various Jimi Hendrix tee shirts and kitten heel slingbacks or sandals. I'm so happy that these came out because I was never a fan of the skinny jean. I love a "classy-edgy-modest-chic" look in my style of dressing . BTW you looked great in every outfit , you gave the total look. TFS

[@shortnotsweet]

Thanks! Ooohh, I will have to try out a kitten heel with mine. That sounds very chic!

I need some grey raw hem jeans ❤❤

[@shortnotsweet]

It’s a surprisingly versatile color! 🩶

[@yellownoiseclub]

the thinner barrel is like the only jeans style that suits me

[@shortnotsweet]

Yeah it’s cool that there is variety in this shape. I like them all but I can definitely see the more straight leg ones being a favorite.

[@federicamanfroi]

"I will not choose between my children" 😂😂😂 oh my, girl, i already love you ❤❤❤

[@shortnotsweet]

😂 I probably took it a little far but I do love those jeans so much🤣

[@federicamanfroi]

@@shortnotsweet you are totally justified, in my eyes 😁😁😁

[@shortnotsweet]

@federicamanfroi thank you! 😂❤️

[@kahlospirit24]

Love your tall chunky combat boots.. Where did you get them from?

[@shortnotsweet]

Thanks! Those are the Prada monolith boots from a few years ago.

[@AsGlamAsIAm]

I love your style and that you have a black cat 🐈‍⬛😊

[@shortnotsweet]

Thanks! Yes, he thinks this is his channel 😅

The wide leg barrel jeans are not very flattering on everyone. I am not a fan. However I do love basic wide leg jeans.

[@dianedoonan8903]

You seem like a really nice person. The jeans however, from my perspective make women look extra chunky, dumpy and frumpy. In two or three years from now, everyone will wonder what the designer was thinking and stylists will be telling everyone they're not in style and don't wear them anymore. The chunky boots make them look even worse. Sorry, just being honest.

[@a.mariedixon-jenkins]

I agree, they are not very flattering at all.

[@KelliJohnson-cw6is]

you’re literally my comfort person i love you #LVGUCI
