Not gonna lie, I’m not particularly jazzed at the idea of
reconfiguring
my entire (extensive) denim collection, but, unfortunately, I
don’t get to choose what’s
cool in fashion and what’s not. I’m just the messenger, and
the message is that exposed ankles are on the way out, and
longer jeans are on their way in. But before you bust out
your floor-skimming bell-bottoms, let me get into the
specifics.

This shift in trendy denim is actually quite
subtle—nonetheless, it’s still very important. Think a one- to
two-inch increase in the optimal jean length, so whereas right
above the ankle used to be the sweet spot, now it’s just before
the top of your foot. A perfect example being the above snap of
street style star
Nausheen Shah at New York Fashion Week taken just a few days
ago. If, like me, you’re on the shorter side, this could mean
simply skipping the tailor next time you buy jeans, but for others,
it might involve actively seeking slightly longer pairs. Either
way, I’ve got you covered with the coolest non-cropped jeans
for
the season ahead, all in one place. Just keep scrolling to
start shopping.

Kendall
Jenner would create the perfect vintage-inspired pair.

These
gray jeans are the perfect change-up for your usual all-black
look.

black stitching makes these summer-ready ecru jeans a cool fall and
winter option, too.

The
perfect faded blue wash.

You
can’t go wrong with Re/Dones.

I
have these, so I can vouch for how good they are.

You
already know these will look good with ankle boots, so it’s an easy
decision.

love that you can always count on Levi’s for an on-par, under $100
option.

slightly wider fit at the bottom.

sweaters.

on a pair of square-toe boots and you’re good to go.

Great
jeans and an even better casual Friday outfit idea.

For
a baggy fit that’s still flattering.

Did
you know Topshop sells (most of) its jeans with inseam
options so you can choose the length that’s right for you?

Khaite’s
denim is garnering cult status among the fashion set, and it’s
clear why.

Long
enough for even the tallest girls.
