It’s time to break up with your skinny jeans and fall in love with this season’s hottest trend: boyfriend jeans. No boyfriend? No problem! You can find these trend-setting trousers in virtually any shopping mall or online shopping site. Not only will you look effortlessly chic, but you will be more comfortable than you ever thought you could be in a pair of jeans.


A great staple piece is something that can be versatile and adaptable to any occasion. That is why we are so obsessed with the boyfriend jean. It suits any look from a casual Sunday brunch to a late night on the town. Though some may be hesitant to try a looser-fitting jean, the switch is definitely worth making. Celebrities and fashion icons, such as Miranda Kerr, Christine Teigen and Jessica Alba can all be seen sporting this trend out on the streets. The best way to truly rock this look can be achieved by following the provided checklist:


Do the jeans sit at your hip bones? When wearing boyfriend jeans, the fit should be a bit slouchy and relaxed.


Is the wash and texture right? A lighter wash with a few tears and distress marks along the way is our personal favorite look, but pick the one that best suits your personal style preferences.


Are the bottoms rolled up slightly above your ankles? The cuff roll is a crucial element to pulling off this look, so make sure you got it down right.


Add your own flair! Every look should be your own in some way. Add a chunky belt or bright strappy heels to customize the look to your liking.
