—Nicky Deam, Editorial Director

Levi’s 501 Skinny Jeans in Supercharger, $98

Grlfrnd Helena Straight-Leg Jeans in Close To You, $228

—Leah Benzie, Social Media Editor

Frame Le High Straight in Kirkside, $225

"I've always had a really hard time finding a good pair of jeans for my body type. Denim skirts work as a great alternative, and this mini from Mother can be worn literally anywhere."

—Andrea Navarro, Associate Beauty Editor

Mother The Four Points Mini Skirt in Gypsy, $208

"When I say I wear these almost every day I'm not kidding at all. The stretch denim is super comfy without being stretchy to the point of unflattering. The flare raw hem is versatile—it works with everything from sneakers to slides to heels."

—Laura Lajiness, Fashion Editor

Amo Kick Crop Jeans in Sea Salt, $240

"I saw these on blogger Geri Hirsch and haven't stopped thinking about them since! They're the perfect lazy summer Saturday jean."

—Erin Nicole, Lifestyle Editor

Citizens of Humanity Melanie Wide Leg Crop in Heat Wave, $268

"Flared jeans in a dark wash that sit high on my hips are my secret for looking longer and leaner in seconds. I have a curvy lower body, and I'm only five feet tall, so if it works for me it'll work for anybody!"

—Stephanie Montes, Beauty Director

Paige Transcend Bell Canyon High-Rise Flare Jeans in Nottingham, $179

"I love how the ankle-grazing hem adds a bit of a modern silhouette to this otherwise vintage-looking jean."

—Aidan Macaluso, Associate Social Media Manager

Agolde Riley Hi-Rise Straight Crop in Air Blue, $158

“I wear jeans on a near-daily basis, so I like to get the best of both worlds. Not only does style factor in with the trendy dip-dye hem on these, but this pair is also comfortable enough to go from casual Fridays to hours-long flights."

—Samantha McDonald, News Editor

Unpublished Kora Mid-Rise Skinny Jeans, $64

"These crop flares from Rag & Bone are my denim soul mate. They're insanely soft (you might as well be wearing sweatpants), have an amazing stretch (so they fit like a glove) and the raw hem is super on-trend. I actually own them in three colors, if that's any sign of my devotion."

—Rebecca Iloulian, Marketing Manager

Rag & Bone/JEAN Crop Flare Jeans in Bright White, $185

"It's a rare day that I'm not wearing jeans, and this pair has been in heavy rotation lately. They've got just the right amount of stretch to be comfortable without losing their shape, and the cropped hem is perfect for my short frame."

—Allie Flinn, Associate Lifestyle Editor

Madewell Cali Demi-Boot Jeans in Kane, $128

"These days, comfort and versatility are the common denominators for literally everything in my closet, these jeans included. Since they have a super-high, flattering waist and a relaxed fit, I wear them wherever and whenever I can (even when heels are required)."

—Angela Melero, Managing Editor
