Worth the investment: good jeans—and fall’s the time to refresh them. Here are the six styles to try this season, plus our take on how to style each.

Your weekend warrior. A casual jean for errands, sports drop-off, or even relaxing at home when you want to feel put-together but comfy. Style with sneakers and a boxy cashmere crewneck for an easy, off-duty uniform.

Transition lighter shades into fall with cream and ecru denim. They go with all of your favorite colors and textures—like chocolate, cashmere, and suede.

A dressy jean for dinner or date night, the dark wash elevates any outfit. Add a jewel-tone blouse and cream heels for fresh, on-trend styling.
