While the days of the $200-plus jeans may be gone, your yen for a new pair every two months just won’t fade—which is where J.Crew denim comes in. They’ve mastered the art of the perfect skinny, dark-denim stretch, and keep reinventing it each season with a new look. Their latest is a pale-gray surplus matchstick jean. Beloved because the color, military details, and hint of stretch hit all the right notes, and also because it uses a word we haven’t heard in quite some time: surplus.
$135 at JCrew.com.
