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?

Yes I’ve been to Paris!
My fave are the corduroy, but in FL I’d wear them twice a year. so I have jeans.
Your little friend is so pretty. Tapper?
That’s a good name. Someone emailed me that I should name him a Peeping Tom. Lol!
I hope you and Joe get to Paris someday.
I love the tweed collarless jacket.

Happy Halloween 🎃
Pat, which sweater? The Paris sweater or the cream cable knit one in my email?
cream cable knit
I thought I would like the corduroy better, but in the end, I like the jeans better with the sweater. That sweater is very cute.
How about Tweety for your bird?
Jeans! I love the sweater. So cute with jeans.
Always – Jeans!!
Love the corduroy but the jeans look is my personal style. The blazer is gorgeous!
Is that an owl? We live in Florida and every year at this time we have a barn owl that shows up in the trees behind our house and hoots. He’s been coming for years and we always look forward to hearing him again. I like to think he has chosen us as he knows we are avid lovers of all things in nature. Yours looks small..love the way he’s sitting way back in the tree almost like a Christmas ornament. I’d name him “Woody” short for a woodland owl. I love corduroy but don’t wear it much as we live in FL. As for France, you need to go! My daughter and I went to Paris (magnifique) last December and enjoyed the culture and the people so much. I had been to Paris in 1993 and always said I’d go back.
Love the outfits
I always look forward to taking a break & reading your emai! Much needed Bible verse for me today thank you! I like the jeans best with the sweater. Bird name-Percy since he is persistant! 🎃
