Your underwear drawer probably seems like a safe and familiar place—that is until it comes time to figure out which pair is the right pair to wear underneath your outfit. While we could go on and on about the different underwear styles to wear with every article of clothing, we decided to start with the basics and walk you through the best underwear to wear with all of your jeans. After a recent private fitting I had at the Journelle store here in New York, I knew that if anyone were to steer me in the right direction on this topic, it would be them. Trust me when I say their knowledge on all things lingerie is next level.

Ahead, read up on everything the marketing team at Journelle had to say about the best underwear to wear with every denim style. From high-rise to skinny, wide-leg to baggy, after you read the expert advice ahead, the heavy hitters in your denim drawer will have the perfect underwear counterpart for years to come. Go on to read about and shop the best underwear styles to wear with every denim style, according to an expert at Journelle. 

Skinny Jeans: Thong

"For this style, we definitely recommend a thong to prevent any unwanted panty lines and to create a completely seamless look, especially on tight skinny jeans. A beautifully comfortable option is the Natori Bliss Perfection Thong that is seamless and soft making your sometimes skintight jeans a little bit comfier!" — the Journelle marketing team

Boyfriend Jeans: Bikini Briefs

"Since boyfriend jeans have a more relaxed fit, we like the idea of a bikini or a mid-rise panty that will pair nicely. We recommend trying a fun and flirty piece like the Journelle Victoire Bikini. Instead, you might like a more basic option such as the Eberjey Pima Goddess Bikini or the Skin Organic Pima Cotton Bikini. These bikini styles are fresh and easy to wear under boyfriend jeans while you run your Sunday errands or grab brunch at your favorite spot." — the Journelle marketing team

Straight-Leg High-Rise Jeans: High-Waisted Briefs

"We have some lovely high-waisted pieces that are currently rocking trends in lingerie and that will complement this style of denim. A twist on your favorite everyday go-to is the Hanky Panky Retro High Waist Thong, which is smooth and seamless and available in a variety of colors. Another piece we like is the Great Eros Canova High Waist Bikini for comfort without compromising style. If you want a more feminine take on High Waist, try the Else Petunia High Waist Sporty Brief, which features floral mesh lace and a peekaboo waist. It's so pretty that we wouldn't even mind if it showed." — the Journelle marketing team

Wide-Leg Denim: Statement Pieces

"For this bohemian-style denim, we recommend pieces that stray from the norm and allow you to show off your free-spirited personality. We recommend trying the Else Arya Cheeky Brief or the Eberjey Filippa Frilly Bikini, both available in rich earth tones. Another style that would work nicely is this Else Petunia Thong, which prevents any possible VPL." — the Journelle marketing team

Low-Rise Denim: Low-Rise Thong

"The Hanky Panky Low Rise Thong is a staple for minimal coverage options! Mix it up with a fun pattern such as the Copacabana, Janis, or Florentina. Another style is the Cosabella Trenta Low-Rise Thong or Hot Pant, both seamless, stretchy, and great for everyday use." — the Journelle marketing team
