I get asked all the time what my favorite jeans are. Trust me, I have tried on many, many jeans while searching for the perfect pair. I know what I like and I know exactly how I want my jeans to fit.
A few musts for me: I prefer a darker wash. It is always more slimming, in my opinion. I also prefer higher-waisted jeans. After having a baby, the higher waist really just helps suck things in, so you have no overhang, if you know what I mean. I am also a huge fan of skinny jeans. They are all I wear. I think they are the most versatile because they work with boots over them, with ballet flats, or with heels. I also like my jeans to have a touch of stretch, not too much and not too little—it has to be the perfect amount. Not too much to ask for in a pair of jeans, right?
The four jeans below are my tried-and-true favorites. I own them all and I promise they are flattering, and wash and wear well. I know jeans are not cheap and I take jean buying very seriously—I wear mine for years before I buy new ones.
{7 For All Mankind "The Skinny" in Rinsed Indigo}
I am not going to lie, I own two pairs of these because I am terrified one pair will be dirty and I will have nothing to wear. That is how much these rock. I bought one pair before I had Sterling and then after I picked up another pair to have a backup. I get compliments everytime I wear these.
I also have "The Skinny" jeans in black, as well. As you can see, they sit higher up on the waist and look super slimming. I highly recommend both the black and blue in this style

{Rag and Bone Midnight | Legging Jeans}
I used to be very loyal to my 7 jeans until my friend Katie introduced me to these. They are seriously the best fitting jeans; I swear they suck you in and make you look five pound thinner easily. They are a dark navy color but could almost pass for black. These are an everyday staple of mine.
{7 For All Mankind "The Slim Illusion" | Colored Jeans}
I blogged about these a few weeks ago and trust me they are the best colored jeans you will find. They suck you in and slim you like no others! I swear these feel like they have Spanx built in them. Plus all the colors are pretty fabulous.
{J Brand 811 Mid Rise Twill Skinnies}
I own these in nude and love them. They sit high up and never really stretch out too much! The pockets on the front are sewn shut, which creates a sleeker and slimmer look.
{J Brand Jeans in NightFall and Sage}
They just came out in these two new colors for fall and I really want the light green pair.
So there you have it, all my favorites jeans! So, tell me, am I missing out on any fabulous jeans? What are your favorites? Any must haves I need to add to my fall wardrobe?
