The 6 Denim Styles I'm Wearing in 2020 (and the Ones I Got Rid Of)

I pretty much live in jeans year-round, so it's safe to say that denim trends are quite important to me. I typically stick to classic styles, but I'm certainly open to new trends and variations on the classics. And now that 2020 is in full swing, I've been attuned to both the upcoming trends and the trends that are sticking around for the remainder of this year (because I'm not exactly going to get rid of all of my existing jeans).

I recently moved and took inventory of my wardrobe, denim collection included, and got rid of quite a few outdated pairs in order to make room for new styles. Keep scrolling to see (and shop, of course) what my 2020 denim wardrobe contains (based on the latest and enduring trends), as well as which styles I put in the donation pile.

The colorful-denim trend certainly bubbles up now and then, but I've yet to be able to make it work in my wardrobe. Off-white jeans, on the other hand, are having a big moment, and I think they're wearable enough to stick around.

This is a style that I believe transcends trends, and therefore, it's one I'll wear forever. And while I'm not done with frayed hems completely, I've been gravitating toward a finished hem, which is often featured on straight-leg styles. 

Stretchy, light-wash jeans had their time, but I'm giving them the boot. Darker washes are significantly more versatile and leg-elongating.

I never really thought cropped jeans would fall from the top-trend spot, but I guess you should always expect the unexpected when it comes to trends. Runway trends have gravitated toward longer styles recently, and the fashion crowd has followed suit.

This style was practically extinct a few years ago, but everything comes back around, and now is the time to invest in some new bootcut jeans. I prefer styles with a high waist and a subtle flare. I'm also donating distressed jeans in favor of more polished styles.

Both pleated and printed jeans are somewhat controversial, and while I find the latter to be tricky to pull off, the new age of pleated jeans is much more wearable than you'd expect. (I know—I was surprised too.)

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
