Wearing black jeans on repeat has always been my go-to look. The only downfall is constantly having to purchase new ones because they always end up fading. Earlier this year, Everlane launched [1] its affordable denim line, and it didn't take long for me to purchase the Modern Boyfriend Jean in black [2] ($68).

The brand touts that the jeans are made with a "Stay Black dye" that helps them remain darker for longer. They come in three different fits: high- and mid-rise skinny and the modern boyfriend. I decided on the boyfriend style because I have a ton of skinny jeans and wanted to try something else. In my usual size, they ended up looking a bit baggy, so I sized down — they fit me more like the perfect straight leg as opposed to a loose-fit pair, which I liked even more.
Months later, these are my favorite everyday pants. Not only are they comfortable, but the material is soft. The have a lot of give, but they don't stretch out throughout the day. I wear them with everything from heels on nights out with my friends or sneakers to work. I've washed them a handful of times (even in the dryer!) and the color looks the same as the when I first bought them. I'll probably end up treating myself to a skinny pair [3] ($68) too.

They also come in white [4] ($68) and classic denim shades [5] ($68) if you'd like to give a few different pairs a try.
