White jeans we love — and how to style them

A solid pair of white jeans can elevate many a summer outfit. Take it from style expert Hannah Frye: “Crisp white jeans, a white tank, and black accessories is one of the easiest and chicest summer outfit formulas.”

To that end, we’ve compiled a roundup of our favorite white jeans — each from brands that we swear by for their fit, feel, and durability.

As for styling your denim, Hannah has some advice: If you’re opting for a super-bright white, go for a white top and a black bag, belt, and shoes for contrast. On the other hand, if you’re sporting an off-white or bone, consider pairing your pants with rich browns, blues, and greens instead. Cute!
