These are six of my favorite jeans

I really, really love jeans. If you see me on any given day, I’m probably wearing jeans. And it’s definitely going to be one of these favorite jeans below.

Don’t get me wrong — I love my everyday leggings too, but if I’m wanting to feel pulled together, jeans are my go-to.

I’m sharing 6 of my favorite pairs of jeans today that are on constant repeat!

1. Good American Good Legs Jeans

  • wearing size 0 (I recommend sizing down)

I purchased these last summer and they have been on constant repeat. The Good American brand is particularly great for curvy women who have a smaller waist than hips, so if that’s your body type you must check these out!

If you sign up for their email list, you’ll get a 15% off code!

2. Everlane Original Cheeky Jean (color: sky blue)

  • wearing size 26 (fit is true to size for me, but I cut off the hem)

When I’m not in the mood for skinny jeans, these Everlane jeans are a great option. They’re a high rise fit, and a soft, lightweight denim. The length was a little funky on me, so I cut off the hem to give them a raw hem and a tiny bit shorter length and I love them 100x more now.

Use code MERRICK15 for 15% off (for new users only, but if you have an Everlane account already, just sign up with a new email address and the code will work).

3. Levi’s 501 Skinny Jeans

  • Wearing size 26 (fit is true to size for me)

Another pair of great light wash jeans. These are super flattering, but they are much more of a classic Levi’s denim where it’s thick and there’s very little stretch. I still stuck to my regular size and they fit great, but just a heads up that they won’t stretch and they are a little more restrictive.

4. Madewell Luner TENCEL skinny jeans

  • wearing size 26 (fit is true to size for me)

I’ve had these black Madewell jeans for 2 years and they are fantastic. They’re so soft, almost like leggings, and they haven’t faded AT ALL even after tons of washes. If you’re looking for a good pair of black skinny jeans, these are your jeans.

5. American Eagle Ne(x)t Level Jegging

  • wearing size 4R (fit is true to size for me)

I’ve had these jeans for 3 years and they’re still some of my all time favorites. The washes that they sell have changed over time, so the exact wash I’m wearing below is no longer available. But the style and fit is the same, and they come in a bunch of color options. American Eagle jeggings are so soft and so comfortable, and the ne(x)t level high rise style is my FAVORITE.

They also come in size 000 through size 24, and they’re available in multiple lengths.

6. Levi’s 721 High Rise Skinny Jeans

  • wearing size 26 (fit is true to size for me)

I own these Levi’s 721 jeans in multiple colors and they’re all so good. The white pair is particularly good because they’re not see through! But I also have them in blue and in black washes.

If you’re looking for a jean that’s not QUITE so fitted through the calves, but are still skinny, these are your jeans. They’re not the kind of jeans to tuck into socks or boots (because they’re not suctioned to your calves), but they’re great for wearing with lower cut boots, sneakers, heels, flats, and sandals.

My Current 6 Favorite Pairs of Jeans

Jeans are a staple in my closet – I wear them almost every day! These are six of my favorite jeans that I’ve been wearing over and over lately and highly recommend.

 

These are six of my favorite jeans right now

I really, really love jeans. If you see me on any given day, I’m probably wearing jeans. And it’s definitely going to be one of these favorite jeans below.

Don’t get me wrong — I love my everyday leggings too, but if I’m wanting to feel pulled together, jeans are my go-to.

I’m sharing 6 of my favorite pairs of jeans today that are on constant repeat!

1. Madewell Mid Rise Perfect Straight Leg Jean 

wearing size 25 regular (size down one size – I normally wear a 26 in jeans, but always size down in Madewell jeans)

  • These Madewell jeans are thicker, sturdier material, and a great skinny/straight fit if you’re branching out of skinny jeans a little bit. They’re a great mid-blue color that works year round, and they have just enough stretch to be comfy.
  • If you don’t want distressing, they come in a non-distressed version RIGHT HERE.

 

 

2. Madewell Perfect Vintage Jean in Lunar Wash

Wearing size 25 regular (I always size down in Madewell jeans – I typically wear a 26 in jeans, but always a 25 in Madewell jeans)

  • I was on the hunt for a good pair of gray or black straight leg jeans for fall and winter, and these are perfect. The waist does run a tiny bit big in these — even the 25 has a little bit of a waist gap, so size down if you’re in between sizes. I’m 5’6″ and the length at my ankle is just right.
  • You can see me wearing them in THIS VIDEO. They come in TALL, PETITE, REGULAR, and PLUS.

 

3. Maurices KanCan High Rise Straight Leg Jeans

wearing size 26

  • Every time I wear these jeans I get a ton of questions about them. They’re a great straight fit and they’re super soft and comfy. At first I wasn’t sure about the whiskering on the pockets and waist, but I actually love that it adds a little personality to a basic pair of jeans.
  • I got the regular length, but it was a little long on me and I prefer an ankle length pair of jeans cause it’s more versatile with different shoes. So I chopped the hems off to create a raw hem jean. If you want to do this too, check out THIS BLOG POST.

 

 

4. Good American Raw Hem Skinny Jean

5. Abercrombie  Ultra High Rise Ripped Jeans

wearing size 27 (size up one size!) — wearing color “Medium Ripped Wash”

  • I actually only recently bought these jeans and instantly fell in love with them. They are buttery soft and comfy, and the distressing is just enough. They’re a great pair that works during the warmer months and into fall. And the wider leg makes them great for wearing with ankle boots in the fall.
  • I sized up one full size for just a slightly loose fit (the waist fits great, but the legs are a little more of a boyfriend fit), and the length is great on my 5’6″ frame, but they also come in extra short, short, regular, and long.
  • If you want a non distressed option, they have a few in other washes!

 

 

6. Express Black Coated Jeans

wearing size 2 regular (normally a size 26 in jeans, and I’m 5’6″)

  • I’ve been looking for a good pair of black leather pants for ages, and finally ran across these and instantly ordered. They are a coated jean rather than actually faux leather, which makes them less shiny and uncomfortable. They are comfy and as thick as a regular pair of jeans, they have a fly and belt loops like and easy to dress up or down.
  • You’ll be seeing me wear these all fall and winter long.
