LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- I admit, I'm one of those girls who lives in my jeans!

My job at Access Hollywood is pretty casual when it comes to clothes, so it's actually my work wear. While I have favorite stand-bys that are both high-end (Hudson) and more budget-friendly (Express), I decided to investigate other staples and new names for the current crop of must-have denim!

FOREVER 21 - Glam Slam guru Ryan Patterson is the one who turned me on to the wonders of Forever 21 cheap chic jeans. Right now, they are carrying very on-trend styles including marble washed ($27.80) and even acid washed ($22.80)! Yes, the 80's are back! The skinny jeans remain popular but for Spring and Summer Forever 21 has them in bright colors! Their version adds another detail--a zipper at the bottom--and are only $15.50! Taylor Swift and Hayden Panettiere are fans of Forever 21, which you can check out at www.forever21.com.

H&M - One of my favorite stores, H&M (also adored by Freida Pinto and Beyonc!) currently has hot styles ranging from just $34.90--$59.90. The "Sqin" skinny jean (also with a zipper at the bottom) is popular right now and comes in washes from dark vintage to light acid wash. Katie Holmes made "boyfriend jeans" a huge trend and H&M answers the demand with a "worn in" distressed straight leg that can be rolled up for Katie's cropped look!

DYLAN GEORGE - This is a higher-end line (prices ranging from $145--$200) that I was unfamiliar with but with fans like Jennifer Aniston , Drew Barrymore and Eva Mendes it deserved my attention! (The men like them too: Zac Efron , Jake Gyllenhaal and Robert Pattinson are fans). The hottest styles right now are the distressed (there's that word again!) "Lucy Czar" skinny jeans ( Christina Aguilera 's got 'em) and the ripped "Joey Boyfriend." Jessica Alba 's a fan of this sexy take on the cut. Dylan George is available at Bloomingdale's or online at www.fredsegalfun.com.

MiH - Coming to you from Britain! The line that originated in England in the 1960's as "Made in Heaven" has now been revived as high-end label MiH (prices start at $175). Their most popular style is the "Marrakesh" (worn by Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Connelly ), which has a slim leg and a subtle flair. Another popular style is the cropped slim fitting "Paris" (spotted on Natalie Portman , Jessica Biel and Katie Holmes ), which is huge in white for the Summer. Check them out at www.mih-jeans.com.
