These designer-inspired Zara jeans have taken the place of all my other jeans—and they’re still available.
The best way to characterize my style is as casual as possible. Whenever there's a chance to wear jeans, I seize it, which has led to a significant denim collection over the years. From £300 designer jeans to thrift store Levi's, I've experimented with countless styles—but the ones I reach for most often? A simple high-street find: Zara's Crossover Jeans.
Zara has a reputation for creating excellent jeans. You might recall the Marine jeans that quickly became staples in the wardrobes of fashion editors everywhere, demonstrating the brand's ability to offer fashionable cuts without the hefty price. So, when I noticed that all my friends owned the Crossover Jeans, I knew I had to check them out myself.
As implied by the name, these jeans have an asymmetric crossover waistband that adds just the right touch of flair. The fit is a relaxed wide-leg—comfortable yet not bulky—and they are available in three washes: classic mid-blue, white, and a lighter, vintage-inspired shade. The fit is ideal, hugging my waist and tapering down the leg for an elongated look. One thing to keep in mind is that they run a bit longer, so if you’re shorter, you may need to have them altered. For those seeking a more traditional style, the crossover design also comes in a ‘90s-inspired straight-leg option for a effortlessly stylish choice.
So far, I've worn mine to dinner paired with mesh ballet flats and a stylish top, to the office with a button-up shirt and clogs, and while running errands with a white tee and sneakers. They’re versatile enough to wear three times a week, at the very least.
I'm not alone in my admiration. Shopping editor Florrie Alexander has praised them as well, styling hers with a classic white tee and black leather flats—a timeless combination that highlights their versatility.
