Went a bit wild on the editing here, but this is my everyday styling of my Mom Jeans. And here I am... sat on my roof, everyday things. You cant really go wrong with a plain black cami, if i had a plain black leotard I would probably wear that instead but either work. I've found with these sorts of jeans, that the most flattering way to wear them is to wear a plain tight top tucked in, anything loose makes you look bigger and although crop tops sort of work, they would possibly look much better on a much taller, skinnier girl. 

These socks are so pretty, and probably the most feminine bit of the outfit, only £1 from La Moda! But I am almost certain you can get them from ebay for the same price. I actually added the lace hem myself, but that's also personal preference. The combination of baggy jeans and fishnets is one I am a big fan of, especially if the jeans are ripped, and I am currently on the look out for a pair like that. I know Topshop do this a pair of boyfriend style jeans (here) but they aren't high waisted enough for me, so if you are aware of any pairs like that Topshop pair comment on this post with a link and I shall love you forever.

Hair-wise, I wear french plaits basically everyday as it's a skill I can do on myself and as a curly haired girl its an amazing way to tame the beast on top of my head. My hair was actually just washed which is why it looks wet, don't judge, that isn't grease! The bandanna was more a fun way to spice up my plaits, not sure if I can actually pull it off, so might just leave that for the blog post. I feel like Lizzie's cousins, (if you know you know)

Oh, and If I am able to set it up, I will post a tutorial on how to 'French Plait' your own hair as its something I have been asked for, I just haven't worked out how to do it yet. (so stay peeled for that.)

Hope you enjoyed this, ta ra!
