Which Is Your Favorite: Corduroy Pants Or Jeans
Ever since I watched the first couple of seasons of Emily In Paris, I’ve been fascinated by the city. Maybe one day Joe and I will go there, but until then, I’ll just wear my Paris sweater and dream. Today, I decided to style it two ways, and I’m not sure which way I like the best. So, let me know in the comments which is your favorite: corduroy pants or jeans.
The Paris Sweater
Before we get to the different outfits, let’s talk about the Paris sweater. I could have worn this in my post yesterday, which was on Tips for Wearing Neutrals When You’re Over 50.
This Paris Sweater is warm, cozy, soft, and adorable. I love how the lettering is in the shape of the Eiffel Tower. The sweater is a great neutral that can be worn with anything. It is slightly oversized, which is precisely what I wanted. I’m wearing my usual medium size, which is loose but not baggy.
Corduroy Pants and Blazer
The Flare Trousers in Corduroy are a gorgeous sandy color. They give you the classic swish-swish sound as you walk, so you’ll not be sneaking up behind anyone. Lol! Flare jeans and trousers are universally flattering for most women since they balance their hips and shoulders. I feel these run a tiny bit on the large side, so size down if you’re between sizes.
The Rebecca Minkoff Suede & Leather Satchel has already sold out. I wanted to mention it since I’m carrying it in both outfits. I love her handbags since they are stylish and unique, plus of great quality. Here is a similar one if you’re interested.
I like having the option to elevate an outfit, so I ordered the matching Corduroy Fitted Blazer. The blazer looks great with the trousers but can be worn in many ways. I love elevating a casual, simple outfit with a blazer, and this one also looks great with jeans.
I’m wearing a size 10, which is the perfect size for me. I can wear a lightweight sweater with it without it being too tight.
Jeans and A Tweed Coat
I’m wearing the same Paris Sweater, but I think it looks completely different in this outfit.
If wide-leg jeans seem too overpowering for you, then you’ll like these High Rise Slim Jeans in Dark Wash. They are a classic style that will always be appropriate because they aren’t a trend. Skinny jeans may come and go, but slim leg jeans will be around for years to come. I’m wearing my usual size 29, and they fit perfectly.
Besides the Paris sweater, the Tweed Long Collarless Jacket might be my favorite item in this post. I love the length that covers your behind. It is a classic tweed fabric with gold buttons and a collarless neck. The jacket can be dressed up and down, and you’ll look like a million bucks every time you wear it.
I’m wearing a medium that buttons easily without pulling or tugging.
So…now’s the moment of truth. Which is your favorite: corduroy pants or jeans?

34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
The little guy needs a feeder. I’ve never been to Paris but I could wear this sweater to remind husband of my bucket list city 😉
Jeans for me! Love that sweater!!
Love the corduroy pants! Cute outfit!
I like the corduroy flare n sweater with that gorgeous purse. At first I couldn’t think why I liked it and wondered if it was because I saw it first. So I went back up and looked again. I like flare pants. Most of my pants are flare or boot cut. I also like the two light colors together. Thanks for modeling two outfits, this was a great learning lesson for me.
Love that sweater! I like it with the jeans. Black slim jeans would be a good look too. You always bring the cutest finds.
Jeans and tweed coat for the win!!! That outfit is adorable!!! Happy Halloween 🎃🧡🎃
Love the corduroy pants without the jacket.
Give your bird friend a good southern name like Little Peckerwood!
I’m definitely a jeans girl. If I wear corduroy, my inner thighs rub together and make that annoying “fvip, ffvip, ffvip” noise. Lol.
I think it was Rosie O’Donall who said she was in danger of starting a fire! 😝
The Paris sweater is adorable!
😆 😆 😆
I love how corduroy adds that texture you were talking about recently, great to un-blah a neutral outfit. Wearing a PARIS sweater seems to add so much style! Just because of the name Paris? It all looks great on you! I went to Paris with my French class after high school graduation. We visited the castles on the Loire River, stayed with a French family, and saw the sights. I would appreciate the history and beauty so much more now, but it was the only time I’ve been there. GO if you can! Travel investments are so worth it.
Hi Tania, I like the tweed coat, Paris sweater and the jeans with the pumps. That is a chic sleek look. The tan suit it nice, but it looks bulky with the sweater and no contrast. I think styled with brown sweater and shoes and bag would look nice.
