Never underestimate the power of mom jeans

09:47


For as long as I can remember I have always had a very fussy and basic sense of style and there were always constant arguments when it came to mum dressing me in the morning as I hated anything slightly passed the fine line of my confort zone.
A couple of years ago I remember pestering my mum to buy me a pair of mom jeans as I loved how they looked on Cher Lloyd and I desperately needed some of my own until I got them them and I hated them seen as I didn't quite know how to style them and they just hung off me and looked completely unflattering.
To this day, I still have said pair of mom jeans in my wardrobe and I actually am quite fond of them, they are slightly more oversized than my current favourite pair but I love them never the less and I keep promising myself I am going to find a way of wearing them to my advantage.
I can't quite think how or why but suddenly at the beginning of 2019 I decided that mom jeans were the bee's knees and I have gained a slight obsession and quite the collection of them. I currently own five different pairs which I have already worn to death and a pair of mom-style dungarees which only cost me 5,99€ in Stradivarious, I know, I couldn't quite believe it myself!!
I don't want to make myself sound too smug, but I feel as though I have hit mom jeans (how many times have i said mom jeans) right on the nail, I have conquered dressing them up for work or making them just super casual and they are the comfiest style of jeans to wear so its quite easily a triple bonus wherever you may look at it.
When I first tried them I thought they made me look like a shapeless weirdo but now, adding a belt, a tucked in tee or sweater and a long cardigan or even a short bomber jacket I think they really suit my figure (check me out with all the self-love all of a sudden) but I also love how they look on almost all body size and type, I am in serious awe of these jeans!
Do you like mom jeans and what style of jeans is your favourite at the moment?

Inexpensive summer outfit.

ITS FINALLY SUMMER! YAY! I am so so happy it is finally summer, but at the same time I wasn't at all prepared for the 45 degree heat wave we just experienced here in Spain yesterday.
As I just said, it is very very very warm here and everyone loves a inexpensive cool outfit (or at least I think I'm not the only one) and I thought about sharing with you this one I put together the other day. The outfit itself (without shoes or sandals) tots up to a fabulous 9 euros which I think is a total bargain and it looks so summery and cool with a quirky and edgy side to it.




When I wore this outfit I styled it with a gold chain just to give it a bit more of a "dressy up" look, and I wore it with my white Stradivarious pumps (obviously!) but I think it would look really cute with some white chunky sandals (that you can find really cheap at Primark).
What do you think of this outfit? Would you like me to post more?
Love, Ellie x
