I’m short, so it’s always a struggle to find a pair of full-length jeans that don’t drag on the floor. Even petite lengths can be tricky to get the right size. This pair of wide-leg pants from Target are supposed to be a cropped-leg jean. I think they look adorable as a cropped length on the other girls I’ve seen style these who are taller, but for me, they fit me perfectly as full-length wide-leg pants.

Typically I would just go ahead and cut them for the proper cropped length, but for this pair, I decided not to alter them. I do have some other cropped wide-leg pants that I wear often, so this time around I wanted to try a longer length of pants. Since this is such a hard style for me to find in a petite length, I felt this was the perfect hack for buying petite full-length wide-leg jeans.

If you are looking for some fall outfit inspiration with full-length wide-leg jeans, here are 6 outfit ideas for fall!

How to wear black wide-leg jeans

1.) With a Blazer

I love a classic blazer look in the fall! It always makes a good professional work look, so I went with my tan Amazon blazer. To add a pop of pattern I went with my leopard flats.

2.) With a Chambray Shirt

Black jeans and a chambray shirt are always a good combination. I love this short-sleeved button-down shirt from LOFT. For shoes, I am obsessed with these black-toe pumps from Dream Pairs. They are so comfortable.

3.) With a Statement Blouse

A statement blouse is always a great option when you want to dress up your black jeans. This floral print blouse from Amazon is a favorite of mine. I think the colors are so pretty for this time of the year.

Don’t be afraid of an all-black look. I love this short-sleeved cardigan from Walmart. I thought it would be perfect paired with these black wide-leg jeans.

5.) With a striped top

Stripes are always in style and I love this puff sleeve striped top from Amazon. It is light-knit, which makes it perfect for fall. I paired it with sandals because this is one of my favorite ways to transition my outfits from summer to fall.

6.) With a Denim Jacket

I went with my old reliable… denim jacket for the last look. You can’t go wrong! My ABLE jacket has been the most worn denim jacket in my closet. I love the fit and the quality. For shoes, I went with some classic black Converse. I think the shape of this sneaker pairs well with a wide-leg pant.

    Love these pants! I bought three pairs.

    For your readers who are taller: I’m almost 5’8 and the length is slightly cropped above my ankle. I would definitely size up! I usually wear a 4 at Target and the 6 fits perfectly!
