3 Ways To Wear The Perfect Pair

by Nicky Deam

Madewell’s denim line, headquartered here in LA, has launched 47 new styles in 8 different fits for fall. Our favorite is the Alley Straight jean for its slouchy fit—a great alternative to the ubiquitous skinny—and super wearable washes. Here, we’ve styled it for work, weekend and a night out on Team Zoe staffers.

For The Office

The straight leg Alley style puddles loosely at the ankle, which looks more professional than super tight skinny jeans. Top with a button down, a tailored blazer and a roomy satchel.

For An Evening Out

The distressed vintage color of the Harrison wash provides the perfect canvas for a black silk tank, sleek clutch and colorful embellished heels. Keep them evening appropriate with a stiff cuff and finish with a swipe of pink lipstick.

For Weekend Errands

The slouchy fit is incredibly comfortable and works well as a weekend pair when worn with lace-up gladiator heels, a battered vintage tee and a simple crossbody bag.
