Barrel jeans have taken the fashion world by storm, offering a unique silhouette that tapers at the top and bottom, while being widest near the knees. This design creates a distinctive look that has sparked debate across the internet. While some love the bold, fashion-forward statement, others are hesitant due to their bow-legged appearance. However, when stylerrd correctly, barrel jeans can be a high-fashion choice that elevates any winter wardrobe.

We had the pleasure of catching up with Tykeia “Keia” Chesson, the owner of the well-loved TC Unlimited Boutique located in the Chestnut Hill area of Philadelphia, PA to get her expert take on styling barrel jeans. “While barrel jeans might not be everyone’s cup of tea, that’s perfectly okay,” Keia shares with a knowing smile. She emphasizes that fashion is all about personal style and confidence, encouraging fashion enthusiasts to embrace what makes them feel fabulous.
Keia’s Top Tips for Styling Barrel Jeans
- Highlight the Top Taper
- To truly appreciate the unique silhouette of barrel jeans, it’s essential to expose the top taper. Whether you opt for a slightly cropped sweater or tuck in your top, these jeans shine when their shape is visible. While oversized clothing remains trendy, showing off the jeans’ silhouette adds a touch of sophistication to the look.
- Choose Shapes that Flatter
- Fashion is all about personal preference, so choose shapes that flatter your body and style. If you’re inclined towards more form-fitting tops to balance the voluminous jeans, go for it. However, Keia loves an approach that plays with texture and shapes. A top that adds contrast and complements the jeans can truly make the outfit stand out.
- Embrace the Relaxed Look
- Barrel jeans offer a relaxed vibe that can be dressed up or down. The key is not to overthink it. Wear them in a way that feels authentic to you. Fashion is about expressing individuality, so find a style that suits your personality and wear it with confidence.

Dominate 2025, a youth empowerment program, organized by Gift Africa, with Mrs Slyvia Akwaboah as the Covernor, had great speakers and panelists who spoke on various issues that are relevant to shape and improve the youths of today.
Moses Bliss, the Guest Minister for the event, made a keynote address to all and sundry on the topic, “Dare for More”. His insightful presentation covered aspects that include, “how to dare for more, things to put in place if you want to do more and things to do differently this year in order to receive more.”
He shared stories of how he began as an upcoming Gospel artiste, but with persistency, consistency, availability, and his eagerness to learn and yearn for more, he is now recognized globally. In view of this, Moses bliss admonished all Gospel singers to always minister their own songs at events, regardless.
In order to dare for more, Moses gave out some pertinent points and facts to note. Firstly, one needs to know exactly who he or she wants to be and who he or she doesn’t want to be. There is no one more important than who you are becoming, therefore be focused on who you are becoming and what you are becoming. Focus brings resilience.

Moses further moved on to talk about the things to put in place if one wants to do more. He elaborates, “have an unquenchable desire for success, be really good or exceptional in the field you want to become, have a change in your daily routine, increase in wisdom, and then give yourself to training.
Finally, he made emphasis on some things to do differently this year in order to receive more. He states, “align with God, speak word into your future (align your steps), stay under the cloud of God, make a mark in all areas and lastly, spend time to read and invest in the word of God”.
A prayer was shared by Moses Bliss to climax his informative presentation.
