Shopping: J Brand Agnes Jeans now at Net-a-Porter

J Brand Agnes Low-Rise Cropped Twill Pants in Shark, £245 at Net-a-Porter

I can clearly remember the first pair of skinny jeans I ever bought. It was 2004 and my first year of university. At the time no student worth her fashion salt was wearing anything but boot-cut Diesel blue jeans, then Kate Moss shook things up with those dark grey skinnies and I never looked back. Skinny jeans suit my skinny legs better than any other style of denim, and I feel frumpy in anything looser than tight. Since these Agnes Jeans from J Brand landed at Net-a-Porter I have been obsessed. At £245 they are a little pricier than my usual Topshop Baxters, but that fierce zip detailing and perfect shade of dark shark grey meant love-at-first-sight for me. Santa, are you reading this....?!
