According to Our Editors, These Are the Best Jeans for Going Back to Work
While many of you are heading back to the office, you may be dreading the thought of getting dressed early in the a.m. before your meeting instead of just putting on a clean shirt and making sure your camera is above the waist. (We've all been there.) There have been massive changes to the office uniform. Business casual has a different meaning, and people are prioritizing comfort in their day-to-day style more than ever. You may even be starting to wear jeans again, but what jeans are worth sitting at your desk for hours in? We turned to our editors to find out.
Below, our editors share their favorite pairs of polished denim that are a perfect fit for those casual days at the office when you want to look laid-back but still put-together at the same time, which can be a challenging feat. Keep scrolling for more.
"If you work in a more casual or creative industry, why not forego the traditional denim option and swap it for a denim skirt? It's basically the pencil skirt's cooler cousin. Plus, the hemline on this skirt will pass the finger test but keep you cool during a heat wave."
"These continue to be one of my all-time favorite pair of jeans for work. They pair perfectly with a blouse or tee and blazer (my go-to uniform!). The high-waisted silhouette adds polish, and they're easy to wear with heels and flats alike. Bonus: They're made of stretch denim and are really comfortable for sitting in all day or running around to meetings and press events."
