These are my holy grail jeans. They feel like sweatpants but look effortlessly stylish. I can dress them up with a cute crop or throw on a hoodie and still feel put together. If you want that Pinterest girl look without sacrificing comfort—these are ...
AE Dreamy Drape Stretch Super High-Waisted Baggy Wide-Leg Jean
The perfect everyday jean. They have just enough stretch to hug in all the right places, but still hold their shape. These are my go-to when I want to look like I tried… even if I didn’t.
AE Stretch Super High-Waisted Straight Jean
These give me all the vintage feels. I love the structured look, but the fit is still forgiving in all the right ways. I always get compliments when I wear these—even from my teen!
AE Strigid Ripped Mom Jean
Finally—jeans that don’t gap at the waist but still give room through the hips and thighs. These feel made for me. Total confidence boost without sacrificing comfort.
AE Strigid Curvy Super High-Waisted Baggy Straight Jean
I didn’t think I’d love low-rise again… but here we are. These have a slouchy, cool-girl vibe that’s perfect with a baby tee or tank. They’re surprisingly flattering and very forgiving after a big lunch!
AE Low-Rise Ex-Boyfriend Jean
If leggings and jeans had a baby—this would be it. They’re my ride-or-die for field trips, errand days, and when I just need to be comfy but still look pulled together.
AE Next Level High-Waisted Jegging
You know those tees you wear 3 days in a row without shame? This is that one. It’s soft, oversized (in a cool way), and perfect with biker shorts or tucked into jeans.
Aerie Crew Oversized Boyfriend T-Shirt
This backpack is SO cute and surprisingly roomy. It holds everything—my planner, snacks, water bottle, and even my laptop. Plus, the quilted look makes it feel a little elevated compared to a typical school bag.
Aerie
This is the zip-up I keep in my car, my bag, and sometimes… on the kitchen chair. It's lightweight but super warm, and I love the lived-in feel. Plus, it goes with literally everything.
AE Fleece Zip-Up Hoodie
Softest hoodie ever. I’m obsessed. It’s the one I reach for every single morning—especially on those rushed school drop-off days. It layers well and feels like a cozy hug.
