Last month I was visiting family in Idaho and my mom and I stopped in at our local thrift store. I was perusing the rack of jeans pulling out old levi “mom jeans” and my mother couldn’t believe it when I told her that “mom jeans” are in! Are we really that surprised? We’ve seen the comeback of Birkenstocks and crop tops. It was only a matter of time until “mom jeans” made their appearance.

Here are five images to ease you back into mom jeans and maybe even get you on the team!

I love that her jeans are a little more tapered at the end. The perfect ease into mom jeans.

I agree with Catherine, they are not so cute over my c section pudge. I also think I might be too old for them (and I don’t say that often). But they seem very trendy and I am, well, 40-something. I fear on me it looks like I just have on old ugly jeans. On the young and/or thin, cute. On my, middle age mistake.

I like them on thin models, but if you have a bit of a belly… It doesn’t look as good I’m afraid! (talking from personal experience)
ps: where are the black shoes from in the first picture?

It doesn’t look like they linked to it in the original post…. which is a bummer because they are beautiful!
