White Jeans REVIEW WINNERS
Wasn’t yesterday’s Style-A-Friend post with Ali-Shaun so fun?! She is such a great sport to participate and I know your kind comments and compliments really made her feel good! Maybe if I bribe her, she’ll come back and make another appearance?! It was actually easy finding things she looked great in and I want to take her to more stores!
Is it too early to start talking about white jeans?! I hope not because I’ve dedicated this entire post to them! I tried on about 15 pairs to help take the guesswork out of shopping for white jeans and I really hope this post is helpful!
If you want the Cliff Notes version (this is for YOU, Marianna!) here are the White Jean Winners!
BEST Overall = PAIGE Verdugo Ankle Skinny Jeans
BEST Budget Friendly = LOFT Modern Skinny
BEST Distressed = J Brand Low Rise Crop Skinny
BEST High Rise = Madewell 9″ High Rise Skinny (if that visible side seam doesn’t bother you!)
Style Tip:Â Â To avoid panty lines, wear these barely there undies or these skin thongs!Â
The review below is listed from least to most expensive and I also styled up a few of the white jeans to give you outfit ideas!
Vince Camuto Skinny Jeans
Madewell Striped V-Neck Tee (TTS)
Vince Camuto Skinny Jeans
PRICE:Â $69
PROS: Inexpensive, comfortable, nice weight
CONS:Â Back pockets sit low, pockets show
FIT REVIEW:Â TTS (25)Â Comfortable mid rise that felt better the longer they were on. They’re supposed to be ankle, but on me they’re pretty long, but it looks cute to cuff the ankle.
THUMBS UP! If you remove the pockets- I hate when they show.
Oui or Non Tee •  Toms Wedges
KUT from the Kloth Mia Skinny Jeans
KUT from the Kloth Mia Skinny Jeans
PRICE: $79
PROS: Inexpensive, opaque, super soft
CONS:Â Tight jegging that buckle around at the tush and knee
FIT REVIEW: TTS (00) These jeans are super long and skinny, so short girls will definitely need alterations. In this picture, I rolled the left leg under about 4″ so you can envision how they’d look with alterations.
THUMBS DOWN:Â Too cheap looking/feeling
LOFT MODERN SKINNY
V-Neck Tee (TTS, XS)
LOFT MODERN SKINNY
PRICE: $79
PROS: Budget friendly, opaque, jean material with a little bit of stretch, real pockets that aren’t too long AND don’t show through!
CONS:Â Slight gaping in the back waist
FIT REVIEW: TTS (25)
THUMBS UP!
Joe’s Charlie Raw Hem High Rise Skinny Jeans
Joe’s Charlie Raw Hem High Rise Skinny Jeans
PRICE:Â 40% off of $189 = $113
PROS:Â Â High rise, super comfortable and soft, faux front pockets, raw edge hem (easy to cut if too long)
CONS:Â Side seam is visible
FIT REVIEW:Â Â TTS (25)Â the high rise makes you look extra long and lean. About 5 inches too long on me.
THUMBS DOWN: Because I just can’t get past that thick side seam showing.
Madewell 9″ High Rise Skinny
Madewell 9″ High Rise Skinny
PRICE: $128
PROS: Very comfortable, opaque, slimming, highrise – gives the illusion of longer legs, short pockets, fit like a glove at the waist, feel like a real jean – not a jegging, one of the best fitting jeans in this post!
CONS:Â Side seam is slightly visible
FIT REVIEW: TTS (00)Â A little bit long on me.
THUMBS UP OVERALL: I LOVE these jeans, just wish that side seam was less visible!
Jen7 Release Hem Stretch Skinny Ankle Jeans
Jen7 Release Hem Stretch Skinny Ankle Jeans
PRICE: $149
PROS: High rise, raw edge hem, super cute from behind, pocket placement is perfect
CONS:Â Ill fitting (too baggy) in the front by the zipper.
FIT REVIEW:Â Â TTS (0)
THUMBS DOWN
J BRAND Low Rise Crop Skinny
J BRAND Low Rise Crop Skinny
PRICE: $178
PROS: Perfectly placed distressing, frayed hem, stretchy and super comfy, fit like a glove
CONS: Expensive
FIT REVIEW:Â Â TTS (25)Â They’re supposed to be ankle, but on me they’re full length. I think it’s quite cute to cuff the ankle.
THUMBS UP! Best distressed jean that even older women can rock!
AG ‘The Legging’ Cutoff Ankle Skinny Jeans
AG ‘The Legging’ Cutoff Ankle Skinny Jeans
PRICE: $188

PRICE: $189
PROS: Like a cross between a jean and jegging, very comfortable, faux front pockets, opaque, stretchy, cute white button
CONS:Â Expensive
FIT REVIEW:Â Â TTS (25), mid-rise, a little long on me, but look cute cuffed. One reviewer said:Â “I’m 5’4″, 140 lbs, and have a booty. Size 27 was made for me!”
THUMBS UP! Worth the splurge!

PRICE: $198
PROS: Totally opque. Silky and smooth and feel amazing on. SUPER WHITE. Faux front pockets, cute back pockets.
CONS:Â Expensive
FIT REVIEW:  TTS (25) These aren’t even a jegging, they are more like a white legging. A little long on me so I cuffed them.
THUMBS UP! Especially if you like a super smooth jegging white jean.

AG Prima Cigarette
AG Prima Cigarette
PRICE: $198
PROS: Feel like real jean, not a jegging, sturdy weight fabric with a bit of stretch, but not too much. Totally opaque. Pockets are perfectly placed with artfully placed stitching to make your booty look good!!
CONS:Â Expensive
FIT REVIEW:Â Â TTS (25) and I had the waist taken in a tad. They’re a mid-rise and the “cigarette” cut means they aren’t super skinny.
THUMBS UP!

Yes to white jeans season!! This got me excited!
I love these kinds of posts, and it’s definitely not too early to discuss white jeans. I’m currently looking now! Did you happen to try on the Articles of Society “Sarah” white jeans? I’ve worn them in the past and they tend to run large but pretty decent quality for $64! Also, can you comment on the rise length of these jeans? I’m 44 and after two kids, not keen on low rise. Any rise 9″ or more gets my vote! AG jeans tend to be a on the low-rise side. Were the Loft jeans a little higher? I may buy those. Thanks for a great post!
Thanks for the post, I may try the loft pair!
I just tried the high rise from J crew and the pockets are too visible. Have you tried Everlane? They are a creamy white- but pretty amazing and only $69
Hi! No, I’ve never heard of that- is it a brand?
I love this post! It’s really informative! Keep them coming ?
I love these posts and thought style a friend was a good one. My question is about the bedding. Where is the gray/white bedding from? Thanks.
Hi! My bedding is from Restoration Hardware.
My absolute favorite white jeans are American Eagle. Not sheer, no baggy knees, tts and affordable! Thanks for this post! Great info!
I always forget about AE! Need to check them out!
Have you tried the denim from Athleta? I haven’t, but my sister says they are completely amazing. Fit like a yoga pant but looks like jeans. They don’t have white yet, but I hope they will.
Really?! No, I need to check them out! Thanks for letting me know!!
