How to Style Flared Jeans

Have we reached the point where skinny jeans are no longer in style?  While I firmly stand behind the versatility of my Topshop Joni jeans I have recently been going back to my roots and pulling out the flared jeans for a change.  I think this can create a really fun style and as you all may be well are of right now I am all about the very vintage 70s boho vibes.  I’ll chalk it up to my Girl Boss obsession but I’m obsessed with styling flared jeans.

flare24Nasty Gal: I went through a phase where I wore nothing on my clothes, I hated advertising for brands or wearing silly sayings.  I have to say recently I’ve been digging out my old band tees to pair with my flares to create a more rocker hippy look.  I think this paired with a pair of sneakers or if your daring platform heels could be a really fun concert look.

70’s much?: Next, I think a trend that is also breaking into the fashion world this summer is the halter top.  We saw her a little bit last year and I think it’s going to definitely be more of a dominant trend this year.  Paired with a pair of wedged sandals and flares is the quintessential 70’s look. All you’re missing is a flower crown and round sunnies.

Platforms: Finally, my footwear choice of the season is going to be the chunky platform sandals.  Just wait, you will be seeing so much of these babies this summer.  I think they are the perfect partner to a pair of flared jeans.  Platform sandals will give you that little height to make a longer pair of flares just the right length.  These are honestly the perfect summer sandal.

Have you tried the flares trend yet?
