They’re selling out fast.
Unless you’ve been under a rock for the last 24 hours (not me, because I’ve been awake since the news dropped last night!!), you’re probably well aware that Selena Gomez is officially engaged—so yes, cue the collective aww-ing. Tears of joy streamed down my face when I saw her sweet Instagram post announcing the news; I’ve followed her for years (through the heartbreak and all!). Then, this morning, tears of joy streamed down my face again when I learned that the jeans—yes, jeans—she wore for her engagement are just $72 and from a mall brand I’ve loved for years: Banana Republic. My two loves coming together to celebrate love!
Banana Republic the Icon Classic Wide-Leg Jeans
$120 $72 at Gap.com
In the Instagram carousel that was seen ‘round the world and has racked up nearly 16.5 million likes and counting (rightfully so!), the actress kicks off the photo series with her glitzy diamond front and center—as it should be. The second in line is the cutest photo of her lounging on a picnic blanket in a fuzzy coat that I now want, wearing sneakers and blue jeans—and yes, said blue jeans are Banana Republic’s Icon Classic Wide-Legs that are—wait for it—on sale for $72 right now. As you’d expect, they’re selling out fast, so if you want a slice of Gomez’s engagement look, snag this denim situation ASAP.

Gomez’s exact jeans are available in very few sizes, but the good news is that her silhouette of choice—wide leg, fitted at the waist and hip—is still available in a few other washes. Among them: a winter-friendly white and mid-tier medium wash I’m considering making mine, too. As if you need any more reason to buy these jeans (Gomez’s stamp of approval is certainly enough!), the brand notes that they’re a top-rated item.
If you’re unable to snag Gomez’s exact engagement jeans, don’t worry, Banana Republic still has plenty of other in-stock styles that are priced right and just as trendy and cool. So, check out more options below—just know that if they're good enough for Gomez’s engagement, they’re good enough for you.
The Icon Classic Wide-Leg Medium-Wash Jeans
$120 $72 at Gap.com
I love this pair’s medium wash that feels appropriate for wintertime. I’d style them with an oversized black sweater and chunky white sneakers.
The Relaxed Flare Jeans
$120 $72 at Gap.com
Here’s another $72 denim find that’s going to fly off the shelves—trust me. It has a similarly slouchy, wide-leg fit that oozes cool-girl, but with a slightly higher rise than Gomez’s pair.
The Icon Classic Wide-Leg Jeans in Ecru
$120 $72 at Gap.com
A classic white pair will never do you wrong. Style it with a bright-red sweater to add some Christmas cheer.
As a once-engaged, now-married person, I still remember what I wore for the ultra-special moment, and though it was dressier than jeans, I honestly love the low-key, approachable ease of Gomez’s denim-leaning engagement look. Shop more top jean styles from Banana Republic, below.
