@Missk1187 can you explain what is so special about the new 'photo-ready' denim? 
The #PhotoReady stretch technology enhances your shape giving slimmest smoothest appearance. And it keeps its shape for the life of the garment, it will never stretch or bag out.
@Englishian Can a girl have too many pairs of jeans!? I find it hard to let mine go...
It's always good to have an assortment of basics, and then add on fashion styles seasonally.
Shop J Brand.
