Once September hits, it’s time to shop for jeans. When you invest in a classic quality pair you can wear them season after season. But every girl’s got to branch out from the dark denim skinnies once in a while. This fall, denim trends call back to the 70s and 80s, with bright colours, exotic patterns, and wide-legged silhouettes. Here are our high/low picks for the jeans of the moment.
