This controversial denim style is trendy again, whether you like it or not

Instead of the distressed finishes or overly stretchy fabrics that we wore in the 2010s, this year's crop of skinnies is going for a much more polished and refined look. We love the dark wash of these Levi's because the versatile shade will go with practically everything. But if indigo isn't your thing, there are 34 other washes to choose from. Bonus: these crowd-pleasers come with a tummy-slimming panel and just the right amount of stretch to move around in them easily.

One happy shopper called them a "must-have for curves," before adding, "I have been looking for a great pair of skinny jeans with stretch for my muscular bottom half that won't break the bank... These are them! They hug you as if they were made for you — you feel snatched."

Nearly 30,000 Old Navy customers have given these high-waisted beauties their seal of approval, so, well, nuff said. Oh, and not only do they range in size from 00 to 30, they also come in regular, tall and petite and three inseam lengths. Available in five classic colors.

"These jeans are so comfortable for skinny jeans. I've bought other brands of skinny jeans and they were always too tight and uncomfortable. These still look fitted, keep their shape but feel as comfy as leggings," said one customer.

It doesn’t get much more classic than these minimalist mid-risers. They're made from a cotton/polyester/spandex blend that's super soft and stretchy, and we love that they hit just above the ankle so your spring shoe collection can take center stage.

Reviewers love them so much, they're grabbing them in multiple colors. "Love these jeans! I bought one lighter pair and one dark pair…They fit perfectly and do not dig in anywhere. Fabric is a nice quality not cheap looking or feeling," noted one.

This slim-fitting pair has five roomy pockets and comes in sizes 00 to 35. There are three washes to choose from, but we're partial to this timeless black pair — they exude a chic Audrey Hepburn vibe.

"These are my absolute favorite jeans! The petite sizing is perfect, they wear beautifully and are the most comfortable pair of jeans I own," said a fan.

Oprah's favorite denim line, NYDJ, is getting in on the skinny trend too with this white option. They feature the brand's signature high, figure-flattering waist and lift-tuck technology that slims from within. We also love the gently frayed hems that give them a relaxed, vintage-y feel.

"These white jeans are bright white as described. They have the right amount os stretch to provide comfort and the right amount of room in the leg to look like white jeans and not leggings," wrote one five-star reviewer.

If you prefer that your jeans sit at or above the belly button, check out this high-rise pair from Lucky Brand. They’re made from a super comfy blend of cotton, polyester, and lycra, so they’re breathable and easy to wear all day long. Plus, there are plenty of sizes and inseam lengths on offer, so you can easily find your perfect fit.

"Love these pants! True to size, perfect amount of thickness and stretch. Make the booty look amazing. Most comfortable jeans I have ever worn," said one shopper.
