How To Go About Wearing Them Wide-Legged and Flared Bottoms
7 for all mankind Dojo Caribbean Extreme Jeans
What’s so difficult about wearing a pair of Wide-legged jeans or pants? But there are women out there who find it a tad bit challenging to wear this sort of bottoms. It somewhat throws off the normal way of how jeans, pants, or trousers should look on them, hence, a bit of confusion. Some may even wonder if they can actually look good wearing one.

But instead of me just simply focusing on Wide-Legged bottoms, I’m offering an alternative — wear them Flared.

I actually love flared denims. I have a few of them in my wardrobe but rather that show them old ones, I’m featuring a few pairs I stumbled upon earlier. You like-y? Hehe.

A styling trick is to wear a top that’s relatively “un-wide”, if you know what I mean. I’m not talking about wearing extra tight tees or tubes. Your tops can actually be a little loose but you have to frame your shoulders, ending up with an overall shape that looks like the top is narrower than the bottom part. Get what I mean?

Just simply check out the photos and they give a good example of what I’m talking about. My favourite is the first photo. I wonder where I can buy a top like that one. Hmmm.

Great guide Sasha - I just don’t think I can do it though. Boot cut is about as flared out as I want to go. Of course I am getting old. Rapidly. ;)

I’m hearing a lot of that from people, not liking the wide-legged pants and all. Heck, I even got the same reaction from my mom when I bought a pair of wide-legged jeans, and she said “dress your age!” I was only 21 then. Gah. LOL.

Ha ha ha ha - sounds like my mom. Oy. You could be wearing minidresses and going commando. Much worse than jeans. ;)

Love, love, love wide legged and flared pants! I’m more comfortable wearing this than skinny jeans. :)

I love these jeans that are flared and wide leg. This is extremely feminine and slender flattering. And you can wear a high heeled shoe to emphasize the flareness.
Great going, good article, Sasha!
