These High Street Jeans Are So Good, I Own Them In Almost Every Single Colour

Finding the perfect pair of jeans as a petite woman can sometimes feel like an endless quest, with absolutely zero light at the end of the tunnel. From waistbands that gape awkwardly to hems that - more often than not - drag on the floor, it's easy to feel like the denim industry simply forgot about us. But, every so often, a brand delivers a game-changing pair of jeans that feel as though they were designed for under 5'4 women. After years of searching, Abercrombie & Fitch's jeans have become my go-to style for comfort, and - crucially - a perfect fit, so much so that I couldn't gate-keep them any longer.

Of all the styles Abercrombie & Fitch have to offer, it's the Mid Rise Barrel Jean, £75 I have in almost every colour. The loose yet flattering silhouette offers a refreshing break from the skin-tight skinny jeans we all used to swear by. Also, they're available in three different lengths that flatter everyone: short, regular and long, meaning there's no DIY or seamstress required.

If you've been eyeing up the AGOLDE Luna jeans, you'll notice the A&F jeans are similar in style. Both have that same wide, voluminous leg that creates a slightly sculptural silhouette. However, while AGOLDE's iteration lean into a more exaggerated shape and higher price point, A&F offers a subtler take that still delivers on the drama, but with a more accessible fit - and price tag.

The A&F Mid Rise Barrel Jeans strike that coveted balance between structured and relaxed, skimming the hips and thighs in a way that feels effortlessly cool while giving enough room for movement. Plus, they're available in a 'Curve Love' style which have a little extra room through said hip and thigh.

For more casual days, wear the jeans with an oversized knit and trainers, or for something a little more formal, add a tailored blazer. The trending 'barrel', or 'horseshoe' shape has a modern, slightly androgynous feel that makes them versatile enough to wear with most items you already have in your wardrobe. For petite girls A&F jeans are not just a trend piece - they're a wardrobe staple. I'm calling it now: you'll be reaching for these over and over again.
