Mom jean is a high-waist, solid mid-blue (no distressing or rips), full hip and thigh with a tapered leg and cuff silhouette, and [they] button above the belly button with a roomy hip and thigh.  Mom jeans have been lumped into ‘90s style denim, which also includes baggy, straight, boot cut and wide-leg denim.

Check out shoes to pair with Mom jeans

Flats

These shoes are a no-brainer choice: Ballet flats, loafers are perfect for mom jeans silhouettes. No rolling necessary. Easy and clean.

Fancy Heels

This season, mom jeans are looking—dare we say it—sexy, since they’re showing up on fashion show attendees paired with satin pointy-toe pumps, the kind of shoes we usually associate with micro-mini skirts. We recommend pairing a super cool sweatshirt with mom jeans and fancy heels, or a sharp blazer, tee and mom jean with a fancy heel.

Classic Sneakers

Sneakers easily pair with mom jeans. Showing the ankle bone, which is the smallest part of the leg, is most times the most flattering. It’s one of the stylist’s tricks.
