Ever struggle with the idea that the perfect fitting pair of jeans even exists? Up until now that has been my daily grind too! I seriously contemplated if denim existed that didn't give you a wedgie or squish your tummy to an uncomfortable level of "I'm never eating again"; that perhaps jeans that lasted longer than 5 minutes without fading and stretching were in fact just a made up evil of pure genius by the denim manufacturers to keep us searching. Well my mind has been changed!

AYR (which stands for All Year Round) makes seriously great fitting jeans! They do in fact exist! "Best-fitting jeans ever" according to Refinery 29 and I couldn't agree more.

When I first slipped on my AYR Hi-Rise Skinny Jean c/o AYR, they fit like butter and they still do (I might in fact be resisting to wear them everyday, or not in fact resisting lol . . .)! The perfect high waist, sitting high enough and stretching just enough to not pinch or jab; these jeans look great and feel comfortable for hours.

AYR denim is available in 3 lengths, so the option of jeans hitting just at the ankle, above the ankle, or with some length for rolling is in fact a reality; making AYR jeans ideal for flats in spring, boots in fall/winter, dressing up with heels for a night out, or dressing down with sandals for summer. Available in a variety of washes and sizes (0-22!), these jeans really are perfect for all year round!

I'm particularly a fan of the Hi-Rise Skinny Jean from AYR in Jet black, but the Mid-Rise Skinny in Casanova is also the perfect shade of blue and another denim favorite. AYR jeans fit true to size and won't stretch out or get baggy with wear. They will also last a really long time, making the price point totally worth it and the perfect closet and capsule wardrobe addition.

In addition to jeans, AYR also produces other closet essentials including tops, pants, shorts, jackets and dresses to pair with your denim and round out your year round wardrobe. These luxe, yet minimal pieces are definitely worthy of a lean closet and are pieces you will find yourself continuing to reach for.

As a bonus to creating perfect fitting jeans and other closet essentials, AYR (pronounced 'Air'), is also a brand with a mission and values I can absolutely get behind. Launched in 2014 in downtown New York City, AYR makes a line of essentials, using only the best textiles, designed to make you feel your best. They are committed to "making a long term investment in badass women of the future." Hell yeah!

Good Design 24/7, All Year Round

AYR Invests in luxury textiles that are meant to last season after season. Jeans, jackets and other closet essentials are designed in their studio in NYC and delivered direct to you. AYR believes good design belongs to everyone for everyday life.

High Quality, Low Maintenance

AYR works with only the best mills in the world to create pieces that you can wear day after day,  season after season, year after year, refusing to compromise on quality. Think the best Turkish cottons, Italian wools, Japanese Jerseys and denim made in L.A.!

A Label for Women Who Don't Like to Be Labelled

"We admire women who lead limitless lifestyles. We are not defined by labels or logos. We embody that effortless everyday hustle. We belong to a generation of women who can do anything. We'll take care of creating quality clothing so you can take care of business (and everything else)."

It seriously is the best feeling to have finally found perfect fitting jeans for all year round. I can completely understand why W Magazine has called AYR a cult favorite, as I seek to fill my closet with not only their best-fitting denim, but all of AYR's luxe, yet minimal essential pieces. Hello new closet additions and all year round favorites!
