I have loved Grlfrnd denim for years now. It’s a denim brand sold exclusively on Revolve and they have a great mix of classic and trendy styles. They relaunched the brand a few years ago and I thought I would share reviews on all the pairs I have because there are a ton of great high quality options to choose from. Definitely a splurge, but their jeans fit so well and I’ve always been able to find styles that are classic and trendy. For reference, I am 5’4″ and wear a size 25 in my jeans (so when I say they run TTS, I mean I am wearing a size 25). Another note, most of them are button fly with only a few zip up styles here and there.
Grlfrnd Denim Review and Guide
The perfect pair of skinny jeans in a classic wash with no distressing. The length is perfect for my short legs (I am 5’4″ and have a short inseam) and the fit is super high waisted which I love. A good amount of stretch but not too much that they run the risk of looking like jeggings. LOL I also love these because they are perfect for tucking into boots in the winter. These fit true to size for me. 
Cargo jeans are trending and I loved the slim fit of this pair. I had to cut a ton of length off the bottom but still love the fit. They are SUPER high rise jean which I prefer and fit nicely true to size. Because of the slimmer fit, I feel like these jeans can be dressed up a bit more than regular cargos.
I call these my trouser jeans because they have a perfectly straight leg fit that gives the effect of a trouser. Once again they run long so I cut off a ton at the bottom and really prefer the frayed edge. These are a great classic style jean and one that will look timeless in your closet. These run true to size.
If there is one style of Grlfrnd jeans that I have in multiple washes, it is the Karolina High Rise Straight Crop. The length is perfect for my short inseam and hits me right at the ankle. This style does run true to size but the black wash is a tad more fitted than the other washes so you may want to size up if you are in between sizes. The rise fits me in the perfect spot and I find myself reaching for these over any other black jeans in my closet because they are such a classic fit and rinse.
Another wash in my favorite fitting style. I like the darker rinse without any distressing and find that they can look a bit more polished and dressy with certain looks.
While this style doesn’t look like a wide leg fit online, that is exactly how they fit me. They run VERY long so I had to cut off almost 8 inches on these which is probably why the legs are more wide but I absolutely LOVE the style. These run big so I sized down, but I will say the waist is quite small so if I buy this style again, I will go with my regular size so the waist fits me better.
This is the pair of jeans I get the most questions about every time I post them. The wash, the slight distressing, the fit, the color – everything is perfection. They run perfectly true to size and are definitely my most worn pair in my entire closet.
Though this is the exact same style that I love and have in many different washes, the fit on these is very different in my opinion. They are more fitted through the thighs and so the fit isn’t as straight leg as the other colors I have in this style. They are a consistent top seller but just know they will fit more snug than the other Karolina crop styles. I am wearing my true size.
The rise is not as high in this pair as in the first one in this list (the Piper Super Slim) but the fit is quite similar. Very slim and the fabric is super stretchy. The length is a tad bit long for me so I probably will cut them just about the hem. These are the perfect pair of jeans to wear with boots this fall/winter because they are super skinny and will easily tuck into the ankle or knee high boot. These run true to size for me.
This was my first pair of Grlfrnd jeans I tried from the relaunching of the brand and I instantly fell in love. They have a comfortable high rise, the wash is classic and the crop is just enough for sandals but could work with boots too. There is no stretch in these so definitely take that into account but I still absolutely love them. These run true to size for me.
This pair is the same as the first pair I shared but in black. The rise is very high which I adore because I feel like it sucks everything in. LOL The black is super dark but the length is a tad bit longer so I chopped them at the end. I’ve been cutting the hem of my jeans for so many years now so I wish I had some tips, but normally I just wing it. I cut them right about the hem to start and then a bit more if it wasn’t enough. These run true to size.
I truly wasn’t sure about this pair when I first tried them on but after styling them a few ways, I have come to LOVE them. While they are the same style are a few of the ones above, the fit is much looser and the color is very unique. It’s actually a very light wash blue instead of white. The length works well on my short inseam and there is a high rise as well. It should be noted that Grlfrnd makes mid rise and low rise styles but my body type looks best in high rise so that is what I typically buy. These run true to size but the fit is a tad roomier than other washes in this style.

Good fitting white jeans can be so hard to find so I was thrilled when I tried these on. The fit is a bit more classic and not super tight which I really enjoy. They are a cropped style but for me that means they come to my ankle. Ha! Not see through and a style that I will wear for many years to come. These run true to size for me.
I love the white of these jeans – it’s so crisp and perfect. The style is supposed to be high waisted but for me it is not as high as I would prefer. The waist runs a bit big and the fit around the waist/hips is somewhat straight and doesn’t nip in at the waist. I find jeans that dart in at the waist to be more flattering for me, but I still think this style could be very flattering on those that have a more athletic build. I did have to cut about 6 inches off the bottom but love the slight boot cut flare. I took my regular size in these.
Though these say they are mid rise, I find them to be more of a high rise on me which I prefer. It’s a loose straight leg fit which looks so flattering. The white is slightly duller than a crisp bright white but still looks beautiful. The fabric is nice and thick and not see through at all. The hem is already frayed but I still had to cut a few more inches off because for my short inseam, they were still a bit long.
I call these my trouser jeans because they have a perfectly straight leg fit that gives the effect of a trouser. Once again they run long so I cut off a ton at the bottom and really prefer the frayed edge. These are a great classic style jean and one that will look timeless in your closet. Compared to the previous pair in Market Street, this pair fits much slimmer throughout the hips. I still took my regular size but it definitely is tighter. But because of this, they don’t stretch out as much and hold their shape really well. Out of the two, I love this pair the most!
Cargo jeans are trending and I loved the slim fit of this pair. I had to cut a ton of length off the bottom but still love the fit. They are SUPER high rise which I prefer. Because of the slimmer fit, I feel like these jeans can be dressed up a bit more than regular cargos. Compared to the blue version of these jeans, the gray fits a lot smaller so I would recommend sizing up one or even two sizes. However, I find that the gray doesn’t stretch out as much and really holds its shape well.
Though this is the exact same style that I love and have in many different washes, the fit on these is very different in my opinion. They are more fitted through the hips and waist. It’s not as straight of a waist compared to the other Karolina crop styles I love. The waist darts in a bit more, fits more snugly and it’s not as high rise as the other colors. They are a consistent top seller but just know they will fit more snug than the other Karolina crop styles. I am wearing my true size.
A super fitted skinny jean style with distressed knees. Though this style is not trending right now, I still love to wear it tucked into boots for the fall and winter. My only issue with this particular wash is that it stretches out very easily so I am constantly having to wash and shrink them back to the original size. If I was going to go for a skinny jean from Grlfrnd, I would opt for the Piper Super High Rise Slim Straight instead.
This style is a bit out of my comfort zone with the side slit but I was happy to see they had a petite version so I wouldn’t have to cut any off the bottom and ruin the slit. They still run a tad long but I can wear them with a slight heel and it’s perfect. I wasn’t sure I would like styling them outside of summer when I could wear them with sandals, but I have styled them with boots recently and love the look! They also make my legs look a mile long because of the slit detail. The fit is true to size for me.
I call these my trouser jeans because they have a perfectly straight leg fit that gives the effect of a trouser. Once again they run long so I cut off a ton at the bottom and really prefer the frayed edge. These are a great classic style jean and one that will look timeless in your closet. This pair fits much slimmer throughout the hips so I still took my regular size but it definitely is tighter than some of the other washes. But because of this, they don’t stretch out as much and hold their shape really well.
This is the most perfect style of wide leg jeans that I own and love how they manage to be wide leg but not too baggy. They run VERY long so I had to cut off almost 4-5 inches on these so if you are tall, these will be perfect. The white runs a tad smaller than the other colors but I still took my regular size.
The color of this pair is so fresh and I love it styled with white. As with the other colors, they run VERY long so I had to cut off almost 4-5 inches on these which is why there is a frayed hem. This wash is a bit looser and stretches out slightly but I still took my regular size in them. They do show crease marks when you sit down, move around, etc so just know that. The white pair doesn’t show it as much and isn’t as noticeable.
Though these are supposed to be cropped, they are the perfect length for me. The fit is the widest leg of all the styles I have and are SO comfortable. Very high rise and fits true to size for me.
Though this is the same style as my other Brooklyn High Rise pairs, the fit is a tad bit slimmer in the hips and legs. They still run very long so I had to cut off 4-5 inches. These fit more like a straight leg style than a wide leg but either way I love them. I took my regular size in them though the waist is a tad tight. If you are in between sizes, I would recommend sizing up.

Have you tried any Grlfrnd denim? What style is your favorite?
There is so many great things about traveling but one of the downsides is the actual logistics of the entire operation. LOL Packing can be a bit exciting, heading to the airport can be a bit anticipatory but once you arrive at the airport all the way until you reach your destination can really be a headache. That is why it is important to dress as comfortably as possible. But dressing comfortably does not have to mean you have to sacrifice being stylish or put together. My parents used to fully dress up to travel but that isn’t always an option if you have a long haul flight and have to sit in an outfit that is constricting or uncomfortable.
Obviously the first thing to consider when deciding what to wear to the airport is the weather. The weather where you are leaving from and the weather where you are headed to. Since you are inside most of the time it’s best to dress in layers that you can easily put on and take off as well as comfortable footwear. You need shoes that you can slip on and off without issue so that is one less thing you have to worry about going through security.
