Flare Jeans: My Current Denim Obsession

Flare jeans have been one of my favorite trends to watch this summer. This particular denim style circulates back into the fashion limelight every couple of years. Although some women are playing it safe and sticking to the straight leg flare, many women are opting for more drama and choosing extra flare options like these jeans from Free People.

If you are someone who mainly wears denim, there are so many reasons why you should have at least one pair of flare jeans in your arsenal.

Variety is the Spice of Life

I know we all love a good skinny jean but seriously sis! You have to switch up your silhouette every now and then. Put the skinnies down and pick up a flare.

Add On A Few Inches

Looking for a way to instantly elongate your legs? Flare jeans can help. The high waist and long hems on these jeans help to lengthen the look of your legs. The perfect pair for your body should just slightly graze the floor while you are wearing your heels. Unless you are really tall never, I repeat, NEVER wear flats with flare jeans. It will only work against you and make your frame appear shorter.

Accentuate Your Curves

I love these jeans because they are great for flaunting the curves you like and disguising the ones you don’t. This jean style makes your butt appear more lifted and your waist more cinched. When styling your jeans, keep your proportions balanced by tucking in your top or opting for a cropped shirt that’s a bit on the longer side. Too short of a t-shirt on top will also shorten the appearance of your torso.
