One of the easiest ways to beat the end-of-summer blues? By filling out your cold-weather wardrobe. While it may not make sense to break out the winter coats and snow boots just yet, you can still get a jump on fall fashion by updating your denim. If you want to know which pieces will be trending this season, just head over to Amazon: The mega-retailer has curated a list of its most popular pairs of jeans.

Each bestseller has thousands of five-star ratings and glowing reviews from real women. From classic bootleg styles to sleek skinny jeans and trendy wide-leg silhouettes, there's a pair for everyone. Best of all, prices start at just $16, and every single pair on the list can be yours for less than $40!

These No. 1 bestsellers have a tapered silhouette that looks good on most shapes. Over 44,000 Amazon shoppers are fans of the classic denim bottoms, with one saying they are "the best fitting, most flattering" jeans they have ever worn.

Sizes range from 2 to 20 and come in short, regular and tall. At this price, you can buy more than one wash without breaking the bank. This comes in handy since there are a whopping 146 colors to choose from.

We love these Lee jeans because the flare falls somewhere between a classic bootcut and a full-on bell bottom — in other words, trendy without going all in. The midrise jeans are made from stretchy denim that hugs your curves.

"So comfortable with forgiving stretch, yet flattering cut and coverage," raved one.

Looking for great plus-size denim? More than 8,500 customers recommend this pair, also from Lee. Choose from sizes 14 to 30 — they come in long and short too. The hardest part will be deciding between the 12 stylish washes.

One customer said, "The fit is perfect. Right length, perfect ease as not to squeeze the hip, thigh and most importantly, my knees. Don't need a belt to hold them up but loose enough to be comfortable even when seated."

We can't get over how stylish this pair of jeans looks in an unexpected but perfect-for-fall olive green. (Not a fan? There are 10 other hues.) The cotton denim is blended with polyester and spandex to add a bit of stretch, and the skinny silhouette will show off your figure without feeling tight or restricting.

One shopper raved, "These pants are great! So comfy and also stylish. I can create many cute outfits and receive a compliment every time I wear them!"

If you love the look of jeans but prefer the comfort of leggings, check out these jeggings from Amazon Essentials. Made from a blend of cotton, polyester, and spandex, the bottoms are so soft and stretchy that shoppers say they feel like they're wearing yoga pants. Along with a figure-flattering high-waisted silhouette, the bottoms feature five spacious pockets and a pull-on waistband.

"Love these pants. They are stretchy enough that they feel [as] comfortable as leggings but look enough like real pants that you can wear a shorter shirt. They are true to size," wrote one reviewer.

If you love the retro look of high-waisted, wide-leg jeans, this pair from Sidefeel is for you! The silhouette and snap button closures give them a 1970s vibe, but shoppers say they're easy to style in a modern way. Plus, they come in a variety of colors, sizes and lengths, so it won't be hard to find a pair you love.

"These jeans are so cute and flattering. Fit true to size. The quality and material are perfect. They have just a little stretch to them but hold their shape, they do not get baggy or stretched out. I love them and highly recommend them. I have had many compliments when wearing them," raved one shopper.

Another popular pair of jeggings: This option from Signature by Levi Strauss & Co. Made from a super-soft, stretchy material, the flattering bottoms have a built-in smoothing panel and a faux fly. Unlike many other pull-on pants disguised as jeans, these feature real pockets.

Over 58,000 shoppers give these their seal of approval. "I never write reviews but I am seriously obsessed with these," wrote one. "I got these because I work all day in a lab and leggings seem too underdressed, but I'm uncomfortable in jeans all day and these are perfect! They're basically just thicker, durable leggings that look like jeans to everyone. Have bought two pairs so far and buying more."

You can't go wrong with classic bootcut jeans, as they're flattering on most shapes and sizes. These Lees have five roomy pockets and a midrise silhouette. They come in 11 washes that are easy dress up or down. Shoppers say they can mix and match these jeans with a variety of tops, sweaters and shoes.

"They're versatile for a business casual look, pairing well with wedges, work boots and cowboy boots. The jeans look great with or without a belt and pair effortlessly with cute tops and button-ups," wrote one five-star reviewer.

Another great bootcut option: this affordable pair from WallFlower. Over 37,000 shoppers have given the timeless denim bottoms their seal of approval, and it's easy to see why: They're stretchy, comfortable and versatile. They come in 24 washes, but we love how sleek and stylish the black version is.

One happy customer wrote, "These jeans were just what I was looking for. Appear form-fitting but actually stretchy, so they are comfortable. The detail and quality are excellent."

This high-waisted pair has a versatile wash that pairs with everything else in your closet, but there are 30 other hues if you want to switch things up a bit. These wide-leg beauties come in three inseams and range in size from XS to XXL.

While they look structured, reviewers say the jeans are actually super-stretchy, which makes them unbelievably comfortable. "This more modern stretch denim is so much more comfortable to wear, and the lighter weight fabric is more bearable in hot climates like Mexico," said one.
