To be honest, I wasn’t completely sold on the idea of “mom jeans” or even high waisted denim in general when I ordered this pair. I mean…mom jeans? Really? But I’ve been on the hunt for a pair of high waisted distressed skinnies, and these ASOS ones fit the requirements (and were under $70) so I decided to give them a try!
Conclusion = Obsessed.
Though this pair is super affordable, the actual denim material is surprisingly luxe – making it feel like I’m wearing a pair that could be a $100+! CHECK for quality. What I love is that this pair is flattering around the waist, not skin tight and has just enough of a modern meets vintage feel to it. Nothing worse than looking like you lost your invite to attend an 80’s themed party. Unless you’re trying to channel Becky from Full House because we ALL know she was a total BABE.
Throw it on with a tank and sandals for a more laid back look, or strappy stilettos and a crop top for a more formal look! I opted for a more casual meets comfy look for a dinner with friends, and threw on this Wildfox slouchy cardi and easy wedges. How fun is the pastel shell on the back?! So cute for a beach trip, where you want to throw something cozy on!
