Finding good denim is harder than it should be.

Not only can it be tricky to find a fit that feels comfortable, but the sheer number of options out there can make the search feel overwhelming. Straight-leg, barrel-leg, tapered, relaxed, rigid, stretch — sometimes it feels like you need a degree in denim just to know where to start.

Jeans are also such a personal preference, with body shape, proportions and styling preferences all playing a role in what works best for each person. For that reason, I think they're one of the trickiest wardrobe staples to get right, and it's always worth trying them on in person where possible.

I wanted to pull together all of my favourites in one place: the pairs I wear on repeat, the ones I always feel great in, and the brands I'd recommend time and time again.

So consider this your denim black book — a curated edit of the styles that have earned a lasting place in my wardrobe. Everything is linked below and, as always, happy to answer any questions in the comments :)
