"For skinny jeans, I always look for a flattering high rise and a tapered ankle. This pair from Khaite is the perfect cut.”
Available in sizes 24 to 31.
“Let’s just say the name of this jean, the Slim Illusion, is quite accurate. I put them on when I need to feel instantly confident. The fact that they have a short inseam is also perfect for letting my 5’4” frame skip the tailor for once!”Available in sizes 24 to 32.
“The sateen fabric is super soft and gives these classic black skinny jeans a luxe update. I may never go back to basic cotton again.”Available in sizes 22 to 32.
“Madewell doesn’t get enough attention for its high-quality, affordable denim (or maybe it does, and I’m unaware). Either way, these have quickly become the only skinny jeans I’ll wear. I cut off a few inches from this pair to give it a frayed edge and cut one slit in each knee, making them my go-to jeans to wear with sneakers and a graphic tee on the weekend.”Available in sizes 23 to 32.
