CASUAL HOLIDAY: Winter Jeans Outfit for Moms

Have you ever noticed that there are family photo opportunities left and right starting from Thanksgiving week to the first week of January every single year? Of course, we all want to hire a photographer and put on our Sunday best to capture memories for the mantel, but I find there are such sweet moments to capture even with your phone camera. Whether you’re planning for the professional family photo session or just want to get a quick snapshot of the whole family before Christmas dinner, I’ve curated three casual winter jeans outfits for you this holiday season!

1. Black & Denim Family Photo Outfits

I’d be lying if I said the millennial in me hasn’t googled, “Can I still wear skinny jeans in 2024?” a time or two lately. Well, momma, let’s collectively agree that we can still make the black skinny jeans outfit work for us, and here’s how I would do it this season!

Black skinny jeans with denim button up shirt and black boots, paired with classic silver hoops and a silver watch and bracelet stack - classic casual outfit for winter 2025

Family Photo Outfit Tip: If you’re planning an indoor winter photoshoot, perhaps with a white backdrop or minimalist vibes, this could be the perfect simple outfit to plan your family photo outfits around!

2. Sneakers & Jeans Outfits for Family Photos

Ok, hear me out, I know this is a little bit of a non-traditional family photo outfit, but I can clearly imagine a boy mom watching her sons run around a park or on a sidewalk by a lake as a photographer snaps real-life images for the family! There’s something special about real photography, which is why I chose this outfit. I wanted to give a mom family photo outfit idea that is easily attainable for the casual, everyday mom!

Family Photo Outfit Tip: As you plan your photography session, think about events or outfit needs you might also have coming up. We’re about to fly to Wyoming in January and I also thought this would be the perfect airport travel outfit too!

3. Sheer Top & Flare Jeans Outfit for Casual Family Photos

Speaking of planning for outfits you can wear to multiple events, this sheer top would be adorable for a holiday party outfit or NYE dinner outfit! As a mom of little ones, we aren’t planning a big evening party this year, but I love to look festive and fun even if we just go out for pizza and have the kids in bed by 8pm.

Family Photo Outfit Tip: If you want to add a pop of color to your color scheme, but maybe you don’t want to be the one to wear it, start with a neutral outfit like this and bring in the pop of color with one of the kids first!

And there you have it – three easy winter jeans outfits that make mom the star of any family photo session (without upstaging the kiddos, of course). Whether you choose the cool edge of skinnies with cowboy boots, the comfy-casual vibe of straight jeans and sneakers, or the retro elegance of flares paired with heeled boots, these looks are as versatile as they are picture-perfect.

As always, my family photo outfits are curated to make you feel cozy, confident, and oh-so-coordinated – not just for the camera but for all the holiday festivities piling up on the calendar. Winter jeans outfits? Nailed it. Family photo outfits? Handled. Memories? Guaranteed. Now go steal the show, mama!
