What’s not to love about cuffed jeans? The elegant silhouette is an easy way to polish up denim, show off winter boots, and shorten your hem without a trip to the tailor. Plus, we’ve spotted them on Gaines, Clarkson, and Bette Midler. They work for everything from errands and coffee runs to work and date nights, and you can wear them year-round.

Taylor Swift’s Wide-Leg Jeans

Wide-leg jeans have been trending among A-listers in recent years, and a stylist recently confirmed to PEOPLE that the trend is far from over. With a roomy silhouette, wide-leg jeans are an ideal blend of comfort and style. The breezy wide leg never feels restrictive. If you already have a blue pair, give Swift’s gray version a try — they look so sleek with a blouse, a dark sweater, and black boots or flats.

Kelly Clarkson’s Flare Jeans

Clarkson, Holmes, and Jennifer Lopez have all embraced the one denim trend that petite shoppers should especially reach for: flare jeans. Flare jeans are fitted around the thighs and pan out at the hem to create a leg-elongating effect. Because of the extra space around the ankle, they’re a great style to pair with booties this winter.

Katie Holmes’ Pleated Jeans

You can make denim a little more tailored with Holmes’ go-to pleated jeans. Not only do pleats hide pesky wrinkles, but they also add spaciousness, especially when paired with a baggy or wide-leg silhouette like Holmes’. Pleats also add effortless polish to otherwise casual denim, so feel free to wear these to brunch and dinner dates.

Jennifer Aniston’s Patchwork Jeans

Patchwork jeans like the ones Aniston wore while out in Los Angeles are the opposite of basic — the distressed stitching, mismatched color palette, and asymmetry add a retro-meets-modern vibe to your outfit. They’re instantly eye-catching and endlessly wearable, so you don’t have to think too hard about what to style them with.

Margot Robbie’s Drawstring Jeans

As much as we’d love to live in sweatpants, you may not always want to wear them outside of the house. Robbie’s drawstring jeans are like a combination of loungewear and denim — the roomy fit and adjustable drawstring waistband help maximize comfortwhile the style maintains a put-together look.

Meghan Markle’s Skinny-Flare Jeans

One of the most divisive trends of the year was the return of the skinny jean. Markle’s take on the trend was a pair of skinny-flare jeans worn to a basketball game with Prince Harry. This denim trend is ideal for those who want to strike a balance between baggy and skin-tight styles. Although they’re fitted around the thigh and shin, they pan out at the bottom to cover your boots or sneakers.

Michelle Williams’ Barrel Jeans

Williams broke out barrel jeans this fall, one of the trendiest denim silhouettes of the year, according to a personal stylist. The style is similar to baggy jeans in that they offer plenty of room and a comfortable fit, plus the curved leg creates shape.

Joanna Gaines’ Trouser Jeans

For those looking for the comfort of jeans but the polish of trousers, grab a pair of trouser jeans, which Gaines has worn. They have tailored seams for a sophisticated look that you can wear to work, events, and dinners. If you snag them in a dark wash like Gaines’ pair, then no one will ever know they’re secretly denim. 

Courteney Cox Straight-Leg Jeans

You can always rely on straight-leg jeans, a timeless pair that will never go out of style and has endless outfit potential. With just the right fit, they’re not too tight and not too baggy, serving to balance your shape and keep you comfortable. Cox embraced the classic style this year, and it makes our list because you can wear them through all seasons and for years to come.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s Baggy Jeans

Paltrow showed us it’s possible to travel in comfort and style. Her baggy jeans are like sweatpants or pajamas, but with durable denim fabric. The actress polished her outfit with a button-down shirt and sweater, proving exactly how you can dress up baggy jeans, making them a staple for both casual and semi-formal wear. 

Reese Witherspoon’s Bootcut Jeans

Bootcut jeans, a style Witherspoon pulled out this year, have a subtle flare that balances the hips, elongates the legs, and pairs perfectly with everything from ankle boots to heels and sneakers. Sophisticated enough for work yet relaxed enough for everyday wear, bootcut jeans offer structure without feeling restrictive. The spaciousness around the shin and ankles makes slipping them over boots a breeze, hence the name.
