The Cool Wide-Leg Denim For Fall


We try on a lot of jeans around here. Like, a lot, a lot. So whenever I find a pair I especially love, I feel like shouting about them from the rooftops. Case in point: these Banana Republic Mid-Rise Barrel Patchwork Ankle Jeans.

They have everything I love in a pair of jeans and more — a baggy (yet flattering) barrel fit, they’re high-quality (with an under $200 price tag), and unique, interesting details. And as we move closer to the fall season, it is always a win for me to find a pair of jeans that will go with just about everything and that I don’t have to think twice about throwing on.

Yup, these check all my boxes.

The Best Patchwork Barrel Jeans for Fall Outfits

When fall hits, I am always looking for denim that feels fresh (and interesting) yet timeless, and these 100% cotton Banana Republic Patch Jeans hit every mark. The patchwork instantly gives off that cool, vintage-inspired vibe while still being modern and totally wearable.

They are the kind of jeans that instantly make every outfit — even the simplest — feel styled, thanks to their unexpected twist. And to be honest, wide-leg jeans with a slightly relaxed cut are basically my dream silhouette right now. They’re comfortable, versatile, and endlessly flattering.

FIT NOTES: These jeans fit true to size, if a little bit baggy, but that’s how I am loving my jeans right now.

How I Styled Banana Republic’s Patchwork Jeans for Fall

For this look, I leaned into the soft, feminine-meets-structured styling. I paired these patched jeans with an affordable white ruffle blouse by Open Edit (it’s under $50 and also comes in black and a gorgeous pink ‘abstract watercolor’ print option). I think the feminine ruffles help balance the ruggedness of the patched denim.

I finished the outfit with chocolate brown accessories (the color I can’t get enough of for fall) including this adorable structured Top-Zip Trail Leather Crossbody Bag by Coach and these sleek, lace-up flats by Alohas I’ve been oggling for ages.

Finally, to add a bit of femininity and interest to this outfit, I added in this gorgeous gold leaf statement necklace that I always ask my mom to let me borrow.

The deep brown tones help to ground the look perfectly, making it feel warm and fall ready, while the blouse keeps the look elevated and polished. These jeans act as the true hero piece, but the accessories bring that luxe, intentional edge to the look.


A Versatile Denim Update for Your Closet

What I really love about these jeans is how easily they transition. You can wear them now with sandals or flats, then swap in boots and cozy knits once the temps drop. I already know exactly which boots I will be wearing with these come fall and winter: my beloved Leona Dr Martens (that just so happen to be over 55% off right now and fully stocked at Nordstrom Rack).

Basically, these jeans are the ultimate fall update: comfortable, cool, and the easiest way to make denim feel new again.
