Tapered Bleached Denim - Mom Jeans | Bikinis & Passports

denim must-have: tapered & bleached.

I am currently going through a serious denim phase that mostly revolves around mom jeans of some sort. While Winter was all about darker hues of blue, gray and black jeans, I am currently obsessing over bleached denim pieces. The lighter bleached color is perfect for warmer days and looks great with a simple white shirt or striped, slightly oversize shirt and my new Gucci slippers. Add a leather jacket to the mix and you’ll kind of feel like James Dean circa 1950. Simple but always in style!

Amidst my denim craze, I just noticed that I most likely have a problem, considering I own almost 2 of the exact same pairs of tapered bleached denim mom jeans. Luckily for you guys however, I can now give you pointers on which ones to get. I have spent a good amount of time (and money) on the hunt for the perfect pair of mom jeans and ended up finding not only one pair but actually 3. Thank me later!

So, the question is, do you want the steal or do you want to splurge on bleached denim? I have a pair of Topshop tapered jeans for 54€ (I wear a size 28/30) and a pair of the super popular Liya mom jeans by Citizens of Humanity (mine are size 27) that come in at over 300€ for the premium denim. Both fit like a gem and are super similar. The only difference is that the Topshop moto jeans have a rip by the knee and the COH are not destroyed, which is a very welcome change for my usual choice of jeans.

The denim of the Liya mom jeans is a better quality, you can tell by the way it feels, but I have to admit I love them both and have been taking turns wearing them. So no matter which budget you are on, you’ll love these two. Tried and tested!

  • Gift Guide: holiday sparkles | #momenteschenken

    For the next 3 Sundays, I want to exchange my usual cravings (meaning: things I want) for gift guides (meaning: things I want to give). As much as I love receiving presents, I am also a big sucker for giving. It is so much fun trying to find the perfect gift and seeing the other person’s appreciation and smile when you absolutely nailed it. Of course that doesn’t always happen, but to up your chances a bit, I have created 3 different themes for the 3 gift guides with plenty of ideas.

  1. I never splurge on denim because I’ve still haven’t found a expensive version that really suits me better than a high street one. I guess that should I find the perfect jean, I would splurge without hesitation because I wear jeans almost everyday, so the cost per wear would be worth it!

  2. Ich bin gerade auch super verliebt in meine neue Mom Jeans von Levis. Die 501 skinny ist mega und ich kann sie nur empfehlen. Seitdem ich sie habe, trage ich fast nichts anderes mehr 😉 Vielen Dank für eine schönen Inspirationen, dann kann ich sie ja weiter jeden Tag anziehen 🙂

    Liebe Grüße aus dem sonnigen Freiburg

  3. Ich glaube in diesem Fall würde die Liya mom jeans bei mir gewinnen. Aber die Wahl ist schwierig. Sie gefallen mir beide wirklich gut. Liebe Grüße Jen

  4. Sehen beide super aus! Ich tendiere allerdings dazu bei Jeans etwas mehr Geld auszugeben, weil ich oft finde dass die teureren einfach besser aussehen. Muss aber auch dazu sagen dass ich so gut wie jeden Tag Jeans trage und somit kommen die Jeans auch oft genug zum Einsatz. Oder die Klassiker von Levi’s (wie Neue schon sagt, die 501 Skinny ist suuuuuper!)Liebe Grüße, xx andie

    1. Liebe Andie,

      ich war auch schon immer ein kleiner Denim Junkie und habe bereits mit 15 mein gesamtes Erspartes für 7FAM Jeans ausgegeben 🙂 Man merkt auch bei der Citizens Of Humanity einfach den Unterschied in der Qualität vom Jeansstoff, aber die von Topshop sitzt wirklich auch super und ist mit 54€ halt echt unschlagbar!
