Styling full-length jeans always feels trickier than I think it’s going to be. Especially when they are straight (no curves). I find myself craving them, but then scratching my head when it comes time to wear them.

With some trial and error, I have realized that some shape in the rest of my outfit helps the full-length, straight leg jeans feel balanced. Boots fitted at the ankle are one example, and blouses or fitted tops are another. Here, I opted for a delicate blouse, shiny lace up boots, and I think the curved hem of the jacket comes in to play too!
