My friends and I are at your service today. No seriously, we scoured, sweat, grunted, shimmied, starved, and huffed and puffed our way through what was probably 100 pairs of white jeans for you (well, it was actually for us, but we hope to save you from the shark infested waters of white jean shopping!). I was determined to find my girls the perfect white jeans for summer after we had a conversation one night about the battlefield that is white jeans shopping! I was ready to put my styling cap on and get them some great jeans! We all came to the shopping experience with our own set of issues (we’ve all got them). The issues ranged anywhere from crotch issues, to muffin tops, to muscular thighs, to short waists, to short legs, to dimples, to no butt, to a butt… you name it, we had and felt it. But we all decided to ignore our issues for the hours we shopped, so that we could find an amazing pair of jeans by golly! And we really can’t do anything about those things anyway. (Well, and the mimosas may have helped -ha!).
So, if you have any of the “issues” listed above (which are not really issues but are just a part of our imperfect life… I digress), then these jeans are for you!
These were the winning jeans on all three of us! Yes, all three of us! No wonder the sales associate said they were the current favorite white jeans for the entire department! They are on the thicker side, and we all love the coverage. Frankly, it’s no surprise to me that the Paige Verdugo was the winner. They have hit the jackpot with the Verdugo cut. One of my friends wanted a dresser white denim option in addition to these, and after trying on another 30 pairs, she decided to order the regular skinny Verdugo in white without the raw edge! They’re that much of a winner!
That pocket of skin underneath my butt does not bother me. I understand it bothers a lot of people, but in my experience, there is NO way around it with a white jean. Plus, it’s skin!!! The only potential solution I’ve found is to buy a bigger size, which adds bulk to the area that you don’t want to add. Not my kind of solution. This is my stylist side coming out. I don’t mean to sound harsh here, I’m just sharing my experience. Another stylist note, do not go up a size with white jeans if you are in between sizes. They will stretch within a few hours!
Get the winning white denim for yourself here (the only place I could find them).
But we couldn’t all stop there. We all wanted a lighter color denim that we could wear instead of our white pair. Sometimes you just don’t want to wear white jeans! Well, we found another winning pair! This light blue pair looked fabulous on all three of us!
Get these jeans for yourself here, here and here.
Now, if you do decide to go out into the shark infested waters of bad lighting, three way mirrors and your brain, be sure to check back Wednesday for our post on what we want you to know before you do…

Bummer that the regular skinny Verdugo only goes to size 10 but the one with the frayed cuff comes in a wider range of sizes. I need a nice pair of white jeans to wear to work!
Carly Lee says
I’ll keep my eye out for you!
L Shultice says
Your new haircut is so stylish. I hope you share the cut, and tips on how to style it soon.
Carly Lee says
Thank you! Great idea!
Stephanie says

Carly Lee says
Let me think. I’ll post it if I can think of one!
Alane Honigblum says
The white jeans looks amazing! How do you think they will fit lengthwise if I’m only 5’4”? Thanks C!!
Carly Lee says
One of the friends I went shopping with is exactly 5’ 4”! The length was perfect on her! For reference, I’m 5’ 8”. I hope this helps!
Alane says
That’s all I needed to hear. Ordering now! You’re the best!! Thank you!!
Carly Lee says
Perfect!
Lacey Carver says
Would you say both whites and the lighter denim are all true to size? Or would you size up or down on either pair? Thanks!
Carly Lee says
I’d say they are both TTS. I bought my regular size in both.
