I'm Obsessed With Jeans—These Perfect Under-$150 Pairs Have My Attention
I am what you might call denim obsessed. Rarely is there a week (maybe a day even!) I don’t wear jeans—after all, what is more versatile than a good pair? It's arguably the most important piece in a well-balanced wardrobe, and I am always on the hunt for my next favorite pair. Although I love designer denim, my budget does not allow me to pay top dollar whenever I get that shopping itch. Luckily, I’ve found plenty of affordable options in the denim space that are just as fashionable and high-quality as the higher-priced pairs, all $150 and under.
From the cult-favorite Levi's Ribcage to awesome '90s fits from Madewell (Can we talk about those Magic Pockets?), I simply can't get enough of these affordable jeans options. They solve any of my outfits problems on the daily, as they can be styled with all the closet classics, whether that's a favorite going-out top for dinner with friends; a cozy, chunky knit on the weekend; or a structured blazer for work meetings. Go ahead—wear them on repeat. I can guarantee these affordable jeans will become your weekly go-tos.
A straight leg with volume. There is a reason fashion experts deem this style a must-try.
A '90s-inspired straight-leg can be styled with everything from knitwear to billowy blouses.
This super-high-waisted silhouette will be your new favorite, everyday go-to.
Contrast topstitching and unique seam detailing make this ecru pair stand out from the rest.
The one that started it all. There is a reason the 501 style has been around for 150 years.
Dress up these kick-flares with heels for date night or down with sneakers for running errands.
Lean into utility with dark-wash jeans that were made for brunch and beyond.
A slim leg transcends the seasons. We would wear these in the summer with slides and in winter with ankle boots.
Jeans can be worn to the office. Add a blazer and heeled boots, and you're good to go.
The best basics make up the building blocks of a great wardrobe.
Paging petite people. These come in 00 to 16P.
We love an eco-friendly option. These are made from 98% organic cotton.
We'd expect nothing less than booty-lifting and core-shaping from Spanx's denim.
Sleek and chic. Wear these with a T-shirt, blazer, and strappy sandals for a night out.
