There’s nothing worse than jeans that feel like a compromise — either they’re super comfy but totally shapeless, or they look great but feel oppressive an hour into wearing them. Few and far between are the comfortable jeans that lift and flatter without the need for shapewear underneath. Fortunately, Nordstrom is bursting with booty-lifting styles you’ll reach for over and over again. . . if you know where to look.
Though silhouettes may change, denim never goes out of fashion. Whether you prefer wide, barrel, flare, skinny, or straight leg styles, there’s a perfect pair at Nordstrom just waiting to enhance your natural curves to make you feel cool, confident and chic. Thanks to these booty-lifting jeans, getting dressed in the morning is about to get a whole lot more fun.
13 Nordstrom Jeans That Instantly Lift and Sculpt Your Booty
1. Our Favorite: Nobody does lifting and sculpting jeans quite like Spanx, and this high-waisted, wide-leg pair is one you’ll be wearing on repeat. The dark wash can be dressed up or down, and the cut looks effortlessly and endlessly flattering on every body.
2. Runner-up: Flare jeans are trending, and this slimming pair from Spanx deserves a place in your rotation. They have just enough compression to boost your confidence, but they’re still comfortable enough that you’ll want to wear them all day-long.
3. Celeb-Approved: Khloe Kardashian’s Good American is all about hugging the body in all the right places, and the brand’s rippled ankle straight leg pair is no exception. Style them with everything from a basic white tee and sneakers to a blazer and loafers to look elevated, yet understated.
4. Basic Black: No closet is complete without a pair of jet black jeans, and this ‘90s-inspired straight-leg pair hugs the hips and loosens down the leg. It has a hint of stretch for added comfort, but is structured enough to keep you feeling your best.
Finding jeans at 5’3” is harder than it should be. If the rise is off or the back pockets sit too low, my proportions instantly look unbalanced and my frame feels overwhelmed. Over time, I’ve learned that the right pocket placement and sculpting stretch can completely change how a pair fits (and looks) from behind. […]
5. Everyday Essential: The beauty of a dark wash jean is that it can be casual and laid-back or super dressy, depending on how you style them. These oh-so-flattering flared jeans work for just about every occasion, from running errands to date night.
6. Best Barrel: Barrel jeans are the ‘it’ style of the moment, and this pair delivers a barrel silhouette with a subtle booty-lifting boost. The high-rise and structured fit feel runway-ready, plus they’re made from 100% recycled cotton, giving the sustainable shopper peace of mind.
7. Wardrobe Staple: When you think of denim, Levi’s is likely the first brand that comes to mind. That’s because this classic style is universally flattering. Not too light and not too dark, the iconic straight-leg jeans are the ones you’ll want to wear day after day for years to come.
8. Super Skinny: Y2K style is back, which means so are skinny jeans, like this booty-lifting style in a chic medium blue wash. Style them with tall boots or your favorite loafers for a modern yet trendy look that doesn’t feel dated.
9. Closet MVP: These sculpting dark wash flares are a total wardrobe workhorse. They smooth, sculpt and lift, while pair well with pretty much everything else in your closet. It won’t be long until everyone is asking you where you got them.
10. Lightly Tailored: Sometimes, a little bit of tailoring can make jeans feel a little dressier than they are. Cast in point, these wide-leg ankle jeans. They still skew more jean than trouser, but they’d look just as amazing with your favorite loafers or oxfords as they do with low-top white sneakers.
11. Classic Y2K: Relive the early aughts with some wide-leg trouser-style jeans made from sculpting stretch denim. They have a slightly shorter inseam, so they’re less likely to need tailoring before becoming your new favorite pair of pants.
12. Sophisticated Straight-Leg: A great pair of straight-leg denim worthy of a spot in your regular wardrobe rotation, these medium-wash jeans sculpt to your body to get rid of gapping once and for all. The best part? They look like stiff denim but feel as soft as silk.
13. Cute and Curvy: When all you want to do is show off your curves, reach for this pair of contouring skinny jeans. The slim, legging-style fit will help you flaunt your figure while giving your booty a subtle, flattering lift.
