jeans I love, the series: cropped demi boot cut!

Back in February I did a fun series called "jeans I love, the series" where I laid out all my favorite jeans... the archives are worth a look if you are looking for a new pair of tried and true jeans. I truly highlighted the jeans I REALLY LOVE and that I would without a doubt recommend.  And then you guys... life got CRAZY and I totally forgot to close out the series. I mean is anyone else's mind just mush lately? Hopefully it's not just me! There is ONE last pair I am really excited to share with you and boy do I feel bad it took me this long to get it to you!

Today we are chatting up the cropped demi boot cut jeans! I have these in both blue and white but I am a little partial to the white. As you can see here they are a great spring and summer jean. These photos were all from last spring and summer so you can see I wore them quite a few times. Also it's making me crave sunshine, warm weather and well... leaving the house for photos to be honest! Let's chat the details on these jeans...

(note: I have the same cut from Madewell in blue and from what I can tell they are exactly the same, check out their version here)

What I Love: The cropped ankle on the demi boot crop is PERFECT for spring and summer. I love that these jeans show a little ankle for warm weather. The cut is super flattering with a fitted waist and thigh and a little flare at the ankle. It's a whimsical and fun cut.

Sizing Tip: I am between a 26 and 27 in most jeans. Both the J.Crew version and the Madewell version are both size 26. So they run a little on the big side. Both pairs are perfectly stretchy and comfortable. I'm 5'4 and the length is perfect on me, but since they have a raw hem you could always trim them if you are shorter.

Stretch? Yes! The perfect amount to make them both comfortable and flattering. Perfection!

How I like to style them: With sandals and sneakers are my favorite ways to style them. It's a great way to wear jeans in the warmer months and still have them feel light and summery.  The flare at the ankle is a great way to show off a good shoe! You can also do flats and loafers too.
