It’s time for People StyleWatch’s 4th Annual Denim Awards! Each year, their expert staff tests hundreds of pieces of denim to find the best fits for each style, shape, and budget. But you don’t have to go far outside of your neighborhood to find these pieces because jb and me features three different styles awarded in this year’s issue! 

Best Slimming if you’re Curvy: Paige Denim - Verdugo Ultra Skinny

“They slim my thighs and lift my booty! And they’re crazy-comfortable!” -Heather Viggiani, Assistant Editor at People StyleWatch

Why we love them: They’re a mid rise jean that hugs the leg and flaunts your curves with structure without making you look frumpy. Plus the supersoft material hardly feels like you’re wearing denim at all! 

Best Slimming if you’re Tall: Citizens of Humanity - Rocket High Rise Skinny 

“I’m 5’9” and they hit me right at the ankle-plus, the high waist holds me in where I need it.” -Kristen Maxwell Cooper, Deputy Editor 

Why we love them: The high rise is very flattering no matter what top you’re wearing and will show off your legs making them look longer and leaner! Plus, they’re still super cute if you’re not 5’9”! 

Best for Date Night: AG - Farrah High-Rise Skinny in a classic black “Hideout” wash

“Timeless black skinnies channel a polished-yet-unfussy vibe-and the slightly higher rise is flattering.” 

Why we love them: These black skinnies are ultra-flattering on every shape! They’re slimming at the waist and thighs and come to a perfect width at the ankle for any shoe - boots, flats, you name it!
