I went to the Goodwill the other day for a little ‘market research’.
I decided that I’d try on a few pairs of ‘mom jeans’ to demonstrate how the cut and style of jeans can make a HUGE difference.
Don’t believe me? See the pictures at the bottom of the page.
What surprised me was that there were so many pairs of designer jeans there. OMG! Who knew?
If you know the cut and style that best flatters your figure, I’d suggest try looking at the Goodwill. I saw Nordstrom (Calson), Michael Kors, Citizens of Humanity, GAP and so on… I was truly amazed.
If you don’t know the best style for your figure, I wouldn’t suggest the Goodwill just yet. Go to department store and ask for help. An experienced salesperson should be able to help find the perfect pair.
Now, on to today’s look.
I’ve paired my jeans with a orange cardigan (for any OSU fans out there.)
On the right I am showing my ‘before look’ with a baggy pair of faded jeans, Uggs and the sweater buttoned up.
On the left I have replaced the faded jeans with my skinny dark jeans, unbuttoned my sweater and added this gorgeous floral scarf. I’ve also replaced the Uggs with my leopard flats. All in all, it’s a simple easy style for everyday moms!

Below are my dressing room pics from Goodwill- I apologize for the lighting and quality (I was using my phone).
Just remember, no matter what your figure is, there are jeans that look great on you, and those that don’t! Take the time (and spend the money) to find amazing jeans that fit.
