Jeans – you just won’t find another wardrobe staple that’s as timeless, comfortable, and versatile. And one of the best things about jeans is that they come in so many different styles. It’s easy to find them in cuts that fit your sense of style and personality. While denim trends change regularly, we’ve put together a look at the top five trends in jeans you’ll definitely want to add to your wardrobe.
Trend #1 – Wide Leg Jeans
We all know that skinny jeans are a timeless classic that will never go out of style. But while you probably have multiple pairs of skinnies in your closet, you might not have one of the latest trends in denim – wide leg jeans. They’ve been seen on stars like Priyanka Chopra Jones, and the ‘70s-style denim look is back in a big way right now. The great thing about wide leg jeans is that they go with anything – just like skinnies.
Go for a formal dark wash and dressy cardigan for a classy look, or choose a light wash with a t-shirt for a casual outfit.
Trend #2 – The Sexy Bootcut
The sexy bootcut is another trendy cut in jeans right now, and it’s especially sexy the way Bella Hadid is wearing it with all black. The slightly frayed and undone hem adds edge to the look. Pairing them with black booties, a black shirt, black jacket, black bag, and sunglasses gives these jeans instant sophistication. However, bootcut jeans will look great styled with many other pieces you already have in your closet.
Trend #3 – Straight Leg Jeans
Straight leg jeans are another style that Today.com says you need in your closet, and they’re a bit like skinny jeans, but they offer a little more breathing room. If skinnies feel a bit too figure hugging for you, straight cut gives the same sleek look with a bit more room for you. The hem width is the same from the hip to the ankle, which provides you with a great fit that looks just as good with sneakers as it does flats or heels.
Trend #4 – High-Rise Jeans
Looking for jeans that flatter nearly every figure? High-rise jeans are one of the most flattering trends in jeans you’ll find.
Just look for high-rise options that hug you at the smallest part of the waist, so you get the best fit. WellandGood suggests that you show off your high-waisted denim by tying a button front blouse, knotting a t-shirt at the hem, or going with a French tuck.
Trend #5 – Colored Jeans
Classic looks like dark denim, stonewash, and light washes are all great, and dark washes are especially great if you want a more formal look from your jeans. However, colored jeans have become popular, so you don’t have to limit yourself to blue denim. Have some fun mixing it up with denim in all different colors, from pink skinnies to a pair of red wide-legged jeans.
