If I were to name the key denim silhouette over the last season, puddle jeans come to mind first. This baggy silhouette that's longer and pools around the ankles has been a go-to among the fashion crowd given its cool and forward nature. I actually took a break from the cropped jeans I used to wear on repeat in favour of the longer silhouette.
Cropped jeans have always been around because they're really a classic cut at this point, but puddle jeans have been one of the trendier choices. Thus, they've been a front-runner. Well, in addition to puddle jeans, I've been seeing my favourite fashion follows post even more outfits featuring those tried-and-true cropped jeans again to complete classic looks, especially now during the summer. Yes, I'll be continuing on with my puddle jeans, but I've been inspired to introduce cropped jeans back into my rotation.
Below, you'll uncover some of the cool outfit ideas I saved featuring cropped jeans. I also shopped out inspired pieces if you're looking to add something fresh to your wardrobe.
