These Are the Only High-Waisted Skinny Jeans You Really Need to Know About
Much like white shirts, grey blazers, and black roll necks, skinny jeans have become a wardrobe staple. While other denim styles might take your fancy depending on the trend at the time, you'll always go back to your trusty skinnies—and particularly the suck-it-all-in, high-waisted ones. Why? Well, much like a decent pair of black leggings, they tend to flatter all body types and they work with pretty much everything you own alreadt. However, as with all jeans, it can be hard to find the best-fitting pair for you. Happily, there are a few brands that we've tried and tested over and over, which we know you'll love. And if you're worried we're just going to opt for designer labels and crazy price tags, fear not. We've also sourced a couple of great high street versions to suit leaner budgets. Keep scrolling for our guide to the best high-waisted skinny jeans...

You don't have to go for blue or black. Opt for a white pair in the summer.
This twist on the skinny makes them appear more structured. Re/Done have perfect the look of a vintage fit with the high-tech pattern cutting and tweaking required to make them a) more comfortable, and b) fit better.
After something a bit different for your skinny jeans? Rag & Bone has a cropped frayed hem pair you'll love.
Ah, Topshop. These never fail us. Make sure you check out our guide to the best jeans on the high street too—this high street stalwarts always comes top of the list.
M.i.h do some of the softest and best form-fitting jeans we've ever owned—which means you can afford to opt for washes that could be considered less flattering than a dark indigo, for example.
