How to style flared jeans
Want that good jean feeling? Make it a flared affair. Bell bottom jeans have entered a new era and we couldn’t be happier about this comeback. The idea that we’d choose flares over our trusty skinny jeans was once upon a time laughable but look at us all now! Personally we haven’t touched our skinny styles since pre-pandemic, opting for wider strides instead for that non-negotiable comfort a year in loungewear makes a priority. But, how to style this coveted retro fit? Steal the seventies show from top to (bell) bottom or have fun mixing eras with modern pieces too.
Double or nothing
What should you do when you find a good thing? Double it. Ever since that iconic Britney and Justin red carpet moment we’ve believed in the power of double denim. Be your own power couple (bye Justin) and wear denim on flared denim for a 00s meets 70s mashup. Strut into any bar wearing this monogram kick flare with matching denim top and we guarantee the drinks will keep on coming. Love it or hate it, you can’t deny that head to toe denim is a show stopping move that puts all eyes on you.
Blue jean baby
Hands up who’s reaching for jeans over shorts this summer? The forecast isn’t playing ball but when our high waisted flare jeans look this good we can’t complain. The classic blue hue styled with bright white and tan boots is an easy way to style a pair of flares. Stick to a simple colour palette and your tried and tested basics for an effortless on-the-go ensemble. The bigger the flare the bigger the fashion statement so play with proportions to add as much drama as you like.
Miss denim
Whether you choose blue, white or black flare jeans, the added extras are what make the outfit yours. If comfort is your no.1 priority go oversized top and bottom with polished accessories that bring everything together. This slouchy V neck cardigan looks anything but basic thanks to it’s baby blue collegiate houndstooth print and gold buttons elevating it to luxe loungewear status. Pairing light wash denim with black accessories is one of our favourite ways to add contrast and the fact the bag & shoes match the cardigan’s gold buttons is just an added bonus.
The dark side
Meet indigo denim, true blue’s older and much more sophisticated older sister. Come to the dark denim side for a more grown up take on flared jeans. Dark blue denim brings a smartness to the casual fabric making it a great option for the office if your dress code isn’t super formal. Style your indigo flares with sleek black mules and a baggy striped tee for the ultimate model-off-duty vibe ready to go from day to night with ease.
