Denim Style Guide

At TheMogan, we carry affordable women’s jeans of every style and cut. Learn more about the varieties we have available and discover our favorite styling recommendations for every silhouette!

Straight Leg Jeans

These are pants that are the same circumference all the way down from thigh to ankle. Depending on your preference, they can still be baggy or slim fit. 

With wider straight leg jeans, we recommend you keep your look casual with a tee and a leather or denim jacket. Throw on some sneakers to complete the look. For slimmer straight leg ladies’ denim pants, you can dress it up a little with a nice blouse and heels.

Flare Jeans

Also known as bell bottoms, affordable women's jeans in flared styles offer a perfect blend of comfort and vintage charm. These jeans are tight all the way down to your knee before they widen the rest of the way down. A retro look that evokes the 70s, they look great with other vintage pieces, like graphic tees with blocky prints or knit crop tops. 

Throw on some platform sandals with your flare jeans for a complete look.

Bootcut Jeans

A cross between straight leg and flare jeans, these jeans are fitted around your thighs and taper slightly at the knee, just enough to fit over a boot. Make these your go-to uptown look when you wear booties with a slight heel and a bold sweater.

Skinny Jeans

Exactly as their name implies, skinnies are slim-fitting and tight all the way down. They’re very snug and typically come with mid- or low-rise waistlines. These are among the most versatile, affordable women’s jeans in our collection because you can dress them up with heels and a blouse or down with a tee + vest combo and high-tops.

Boyfriend Jeans

Shaped like skinny jeans, this silhouette is the loose-fitting version of the cut. They’re meant to be baggy with the hem rolled up to the middle of your shin. 

Style this ladies’ denim pant for a relaxed look with a basic tee. You can also elevate your boyfriend jeans a little with heels or keep them relaxed with flat sandals.

Cropped Jeans

Affordable women's jeans are a staple in any wardrobe, and when summer comes around, cropped styles rise in popularity. Cropped jeans come in many fits, including baggy and slim. Their defining characteristic is that they are cropped above the ankle but below the knee. 

Since these ladies’ denim pants give you the opportunity to show off your shoes, we recommend making your shoe choice the star of the show with bold booties, vivid heels, or sky-high pumps. Tone down the rest of your ensemble with a neutral top and outerwear.

High-Waisted Jeans

Another style from the past that’s coming back into fashion is the high-waisted silhouette. We love it because it helps sculpt your stomach, butt, and thighs into a smooth, sleek shape. Wear a blouse you can tuck into your pants to highlight your waist or throw on a crop top to show a little skin.

Denim Care

Denim care is a little different from all the other essentials in your closet. Because cotton is prone to shrinking and warping, you want to be careful with how frequently you wash your denim. 

You should only wash your jeans every 10-12 wears, unless they get extremely soiled. You should also turn the jeans inside out and wash them in cold water. Use mild detergent to prevent additional shrinking and fading.

Some denim manufacturers strive to improve the durability of their affordable women’s jeans by blending cotton with stretchy materials, like spandex or elastin. These materials add a tiny bit of stretch to your denim, so they fit you even better and protect them from wear and tear.
