How To Wear Your High-Waisted Skinny Jeans

We’re bringing back the fashion in the old days – skater skirts, retro vintage, mom jeans and everything high-waisted. In fact, it’s more economical to search for your mom’s old clothes. You might get lucky and find something like your mom’s high waisted shorts, flared trousers or vintage dresses.

High-waisted skinny jeans are usually paired with crop tops. The main purpose is to specifically display and show off its perfect fit on your waist – after all, high waisted jeans are designed to be higher than your navel. Finding the right tops for my jeans is a difficult task for me. ZALORA has a wide selection of women’s fashion. I love their tops.

Topshop Joni Jeans

I’m wearing my Topshop Joni Jeans paired with my laced top and Forever21 black platform sandals. The color of my top blends well with my pink super high waisted jeans. This pair is stretchy and comfortable and stretchy jeans are the best jeans for curvy women.

Ribbed crop tops would look chunky too. If you want to wear something basic yet still look cute at the same time, you’ll surely adore Topshop’s skinny rib crop tops in blue, biege, pink and all the lovely pastel colors in the world.

Levi’s High Rise

I paired my Levi’s High Rise with a long sleeved tie front crop top and my Dr. Martens Mary Jane shoes. Though high rise and high-waisted jeans are different, their differences often go unnoticed.

Levi’s Mom Jeans

Some girls might find mom jeans tacky. I think it’s an interesting fashion revival though . I adore the idea of wearing something that would remind me of the 90s, back when my aunt still wore mom jeans and it was in the late 90s when I first saw Axl Rose on TV basically because I was born in the late 80s.

Mom jeans aren’t for your mom anymore.  You can actually wear it with your Dr. Martens or platforms. Pair it with a plaid crop top or knitted sweater. I must remind you, don’t forget your vintage tees. Another thing: don’t be a fashion terrorist.

While Taylor Swift prefers high-waisted shorts, Miley Cyrus is into high rise jeans and mom jeans. In the photo, Miley is wearing her acid washed mom jeans with her semi corset top and black flats. I think this outfit works not because she’s Miley Cyrus and she can wear anything, but because the whole outfit reminds me of the 90s. Well, 90s fashion is awesomeastic.

The revival of high-waisted jeans is a response to the revival of low waist skinny jeans. And the evolution of fashion also becomes an evolution for most trusted denim companies that target young men and women who are into jeans and fashion. At the end of the day, we are all the same – hungry consumers.

I know my LOG shirt is awesome.  So what I did was I cut the sleeves of the shirt because most band shirts are too big or too small for me. It’s actually more comfortable especially when it gets hotter everyday.  And the whole outfit looks simple yet badass.

Band shirts sizes are usually large or extra large. They still look big even if it’s medium sized though. This is a big problem for most girls who want to wear band shirts and still look hot. What I did was I just cut off the neck and arms of the shirt to fit. There are a lot of DIY T-shirt cutting designs online. You can check Pinterest for more DIY shirt design ideas.

I’m wearing my acid washed jeans that I bought from a thrift store and my pair of docs that I bought online.

Dr. Martens Leyton 7-Eye Boot

When I was young, I wanted to have Arnold Schwarzenegger's awesome leather jacket in the first terminator movie. Dad thought leather was expensive. So he didn't let me borrow his Doc Martens boots. Well, if you live in a third world country, everything is expensive. After I got my own money, I bought my own Docs, not some terminator jacket.

Doc Martens Shoreditch 7 eye boot is an additional pair for the Ecletic collection. It is available in black and cherry red with the classic Dr. Martens yellow stitch. The boot is made of soft lightweight leather material so you can wear them for longer hours without having to worry of experiencing any foot pain. I know a lot of people who complain about their heavy DMs boots, especially those who are used to wearing flats. My other pairs of Docs sometimes give me foot pain, but this pair is different because its soft cushioned and it can assure you a healthy and satisfying relationship with your feet.  The style is awesome, simple yet full of attitude.

Get a new pair of awesome Docs and enjoy the convenience of buying it online.
