Reese Charlotte Wash Low-Rise Boot-Cut Jean, $19.99 from Delia’s
Jeans are the staple of my wardrobe. Not only are they comfortable, but they go with everything. Since fall is right around the corner, I need to pick up a few more pairs that won’t break the bank.
Delia’s is one of my favorite places to buy jeans because they often have buy one, get one half off sales. Their jeans come in a ton of styles and washes, and they’re long enough for my 6’1″ body.
Reese Charlotte Wash Low-Rise Boot-Cut Jean (above), $19.99 from Delia’s. I love bootcut jeans. Not only do they flatter my figure very well, I like that they tend to be longer than other styles.
Bailey Logan Wash Low-Rise Flare Jean, $19.99 from Delia’s. I like to a have a couple pairs of light-washed flare jeans for my casual days.
Hadley Loyola Wash High-Rise Skinny Jean, $19.99 from Delia’s. I want to eventually try high-waisted jeans (if they’re still in style), so trying out a high-rise pair is a good stepping stone.
Olivia Indigo Low-Rise Jegging, $19.99 from Delia’s. I’ve wanted a pair of jeggings for a while. Unfortunately, when they first came out, none of the stores that carried them made pairs that were long enough for me. Now, they’re available in multiple lengths.
I love to get jeans from Alloy because not only do they have a ton of different brands, they have extended inseams. Do you know how hard it is to find a 37″ inseam? Pretty hard.
Standards & Practices Studded Stretch Bootcut Jean, $19.99 from Alloy. I really love the wash on these jeans, and the studs are a nice touch.
Seamed Stretch Skinny Jean, $19.99 from Alloy. I’m trying to work more skinny jeans into my wardrobe. The more I look at this pair, the more I like the seam that goes down the leg. It’s very slimming.
Seven7 Rocker Slim Stretch Barely There Bootcut Jean, $19.99 from Alloy. This pair is a great “everyday” jean because of the cut and the rinse.
Rip & Repair Skinny Jean, $14.99 from Alloy. I really don’t have any distressed jeans in my closet. I like the look of these, especially with a flowy white blouse.
What jeans are you going to buy for fall, Lovelies?

the whiskering, the holes, the faux-fading, No thanks on all of them. I could possibly tolerate the first pair in a pinch.

Standards & Practices Studded Stretch Boot Cut from Alloy? I’ll take six!
So glad this isn’t a post filled with only skinnies. I miss boot cuts, even little flares. BRING IT BACK, FASHION WORLD

Jeans are so difficult for me to find. They all gap in the back, the inseam is always too long, and sometimes they mysteriously flatten my ass (which I have one of).
Then you get into details like the cuts, rises, and washes I like and I’m about to say, “F—this. Time to go back to skirts.”

really? we’re STILL doing the skinny jean thing? That model in the jeggings is probably 5’9 and 105 pounds, and they still don’t look good. Ugh.

Ugh I haaaate skinny jeans! It is so hard to find flare or bootleg jeans (yes I know there are some in this) in stores. Whenever I do find em there’s only one or two options and the rest are all skinny. Skinny jeans don’t look good on everyone. I’ve never even tried a pair on because they’re so ugly.
I don’t like low-rise jeans anymore either. Having your butt crack show when you sit down or bend over isn’t attractive.

I hate Delia’s. Weird sizing.

I love Delia’s for their jeans! I am 4’11″ and I can’t find my inseam anywhere. Delia’s has this awesome “petite” length, I think it is a 26″ or 28″ inseam, so if you’re short like me, that’s a great store.
@fire_drill_09@xanga - Speak for yourself.
They look great on me. I’m very short and on the thin side, so bootleg cuts and flares just make me look stumpy. I avoid them like the plague. Different styles work on different people. Even if I were tall, though, I’d prefer the skinny jeans probably. I like how they look with flats and heels, and are awesome for wearing boots.
