." At 5' 2", I was actually worried that barrel jeans will swamp my petite frame (as wide-leg trousers commonly do). Yet it appears that this style is best I do not need to hem all of them (as I often have to do with jeans that don't have a much shorter inseam), and the subtle rounded shape of these pants makes me appear means taller than I am actually (magic!). This pair especially is actually thus comfy, though I would advise sizing down if, like me, you're in between measurements, as they sit lower-waisted than anticipated.In regards to styling, I wanted to resist the slouchy, large energy of the pants with some fun, touches (and participate in off the amazing star-patch style). Thus, instead of coupling them along with a chunkier footwear shape, I chose my beloved ballet flats (which all of a sudden matched my cardigan), as well as a form-fitting child tee that does not challenge the bulge of the slacks. As it acquires cold, I'll be actually exchanging these out for mown knits, vivid cattle herder boots, and also my beloved Money Lane coats to include in the excitable, vintage vibe."-- Esther Newman, Associate Article Writer.
