Tonal Wide Leg Jeans and Tee
You can never go wrong with a tonal outfit with neutral accessories. It’s easy and looks elevated, no matter where you’re headed.

Finish off your outfit with Mary Jane flats, a simple bag, and a sweater over your shoulders for the perfect third piece.

To make wide leg jeans feel a little more girly, pair them with ladylike pieces like a cardigan and ballet flats. The juxtaposition between the more casual jeans and feminine pieces gives this look unique balance.
