I Tried on 20+ Pairs of Jeans at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale These Are My Top 7 (+ 1 I’d Skip) 1. Madewell Darted Barrel The perfect barrel jean—high-waisted, incredibly flattering, and the tan color is a fresh alternative to blue denim. 2. Pistola Slim Bootcut These dark-wash bootcuts are ultra-slimming and make your legs look miles long. 3. Veronica Beard Slim Barrel Soft, comfortable, and perfectly high-waisted with just the right amount of barrel shape. 4. Frame Le Sleek Straight The modern skinny jean—sleek, polished, and guaranteed to become a wardrobe staple. 5. Pistola Faded Black Straight Leg The washed black denim gives these a cool, elevated look that pairs with everything. 6. Mother Mid-Rise Flare Love a mid-rise? These vintage-inspired flares are incredibly flattering and so comfortable. 7. Paige Wide Leg A rich dark wash and flattering wide-leg silhouette make these perfect for fall. 8. The Pair I’d Skip: Levi’s Ripped Jeans I’d skip these because they’re too low-waisted for my taste, and I don’t love the distressed rips. Sizing: All of the denim runs true to size. I’m wearing a size 24 in every pair. LTKootd LTKOver40 LTKSaleAlert
