Bella Hadid Just Ditched Baggy Jeans for This Skinny-Adjacent Style
Bella Hadid is back in NYC after many months away. And since her style is always evolving, it's expected that there'll be some new observations to make about her wardrobe. Hadid kept with the trends for several seasons, embracing baggier silhouettes before taking some time away from the public eye. Her jeans of choice were often loose and low-rise. But things have shifted, at least for a day.
While out in the city during the day this week, Hadid wore a pair of jeans that were basically the opposite of her previous loose and low pairs. The high-waisted jeans she chose weren't quite skinny as they weren't super tight around the ankles, but they could be described as slim-leg jeans. Slim-leg jeans fall somewhere between straight-leg and skinny jeans on the slimness meter, and they're a great choice if you prefer something polished, timeless, and versatile.
