The Best Denim Under $100

One of my least favorite things ever is when a girl that I follow on Instagram post a photo of herself looking fabulous with a handy dandy link to where I can buy the exact items, I click through and start mentally picturing myself rocking those amazing perfectly distressed skinny jeans only to find that they cost way more than I can ever justify spending on denim. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for her that she can afford them but it is a total bummer. And while I too post those little links I like to make sure that people don't have that reaction when they click through.

I recently did an poll on my Instagram stories asking how much you guys typically spend on jeans and an overwhelming percentage of you voted for under $100! I'm not surprised at all because that's where I fall too and although there are some brands that are worth every single penny, I'm looking at you Madewell, I thought I'd share with you some of my favorite places to find affordable pairs!

H&M

These guys have been killing it with their jean selection lately! Good quality, and crazy prices! They even have 50% off a TON of their inventory right now! Make sure to size up when it comes to their jeans though. I'm typically a 4 or 26 and I order a size 8.

Free People

Levi's are my go-to for classic styles that last forever. One of my favorite spots to grab them is Free People because they curate the coolest styles and best colors and they don't jack up the price. They've also got great classic and funky pieces that are typically under $80!

Abercrombie - currently BOGO 50% Off!

I love Abercrombie because they always have great dupes for high end jeans at a fraction of the cost. The downside is they don't last as long because they lose their shape and stretch over time but that's a price I'm sometimes willing to pay in the moment. Especially for trendier pieces that I know aren't in it for the long haul!

American Eagle

When I need jeans that are durable, and CHEAP I always love American Eagle! They have big sales often (like right now) and their stuff is good quality! I typically order a size down here.

Nordstrom Rack

If you're still itching for that high end denim but don't want to break the bank, Nordstrom Rack is an awesome place where you can snag some amazing designer jeans for a fraction of the cost! I love high end jeans because I know that they're going to last me and they are almost always true to size so if I can snag them at a discount you know I'm gonna! You can always hit up local high end consignment shops and get a used pair that still have a lot of life in them! I do this often!

So there you have it! Great jeans don't have to cost an arm and a leg. Affordable options are becoming more readily available you just have to know where to look! I'd love to answer any questions that you have - I personally own several of the pairs that I linked up today so if you have a question about the fit / style / or how to wear something, leave it in the comments below!

If you loved this post or any other post, I'd be so grateful if you shared it! Thank you for all your support!
