Yay! I’m finally getting around to sharing my new favorite (pull on!!) jeans. I’ve always preferred a skinnier leg on my denim, but when I tried these babies on I knew they had to be mine! I paired them with my beloved platforms for this look, but how perfect would these sky high platforms be underneath?? With a flare like this you gotta go big with your footwear.
With a wider leg there’s something about the extra material flapping around that kind of bugs me. But these flares/bell bottoms are the exception because they are insanely comfy AND look great!
You just cannot beat the comfort of an elastic waistband! So far everyone I’ve seen in them have looked good too – they are so flattering. As I write this there are 12 colors available! I also love the look of the patterned versions and if you want to be super bold try the vegan leather ones (1, 2).
Isn’t the detail at the back so cute? You can’t see the top of the waistband, but it’s nice and high so no accidental crack lol.
When I bought this hat I had no clue how much I would come to love it. I would not mind if I had it in a different color since I reach for it more often than any of my other hats. The leather string keeps it on your head in windy weather and it’s helped me stay in the shade countless times – all while looking good!
I have actually not worn these flares a ton yet due to all the rain we’ve been getting, but I’ve noticed that they pair best with tops that are a bit cropped or tie/tuck at the waist. I really love this sweater (limited availability) as a topper (another super cute option). In Socal we don’t need crazy thick knits most the time so it keeps me just warm enough.
I cannot stop wearing this tie front tank – it goes with everything AND you can wear a non-strapless bra! 1.STATE has become another go-to brand for me. This is a nice, similar option and I also spotted this winner today and Katie want! I’ve found that Nordstromrack.com has a ton of discounted items from this brand and you can do any returns in-store to avoid the return shipping cost.
What are your thoughts on flares coming back in style? Yea or nay?
XOXO, Kate
