1. Flares: Flares are back in style in a big way! In fact, the bigger the better when it comes to the size of the “bell.” Rock this exaggerated look with a jacket and some heels which will elongate your legs and look really on-trend!
Jeans: Gap (photos 1 & 3), $15
Jeans: True Religion/Jasmine Sola (photo 2), $145
Just like J:
1. Gap New Wide Leg Trouser Jeans, $55.60
2. American Eagle Vintage Flare Jean, $34.95

2. Skinny: Just because flares ruled the runways doesn’t mean you should throw out your skinny jeans just yet! They are the best type of jeans to wear under boots, and you can always transition them to spring by pairing ‘em with a colorful cardigan and cute pumps.

Loving the wide legs (of course I am keeping my skinnies as you suggest) for spring. I just found a really cute pair online at Old Navy for even less than the Gap ones ....they were 34.50 on sale for 29.50!

stunning outfits, just stunning. the outfit with the red pants in number 5 is to die for, so beautiful!
Great post! I so want a pair of white or red jeans... Hmmmm! Perhaps both. :-)
Whoa girl you've got a lot of jeans! I agree these are all must haves and my favorite right now are flares i'm loving the 70s vibe!
What an awesome post! Thank you! I LOVE jeans like nobody's business! Sometimes I wonder why I even buy any other pants/skirts because I could wear jeans EVERYDAY! Love this post and all the ways to wear them, thanks!
This is a great post! Props to you!
I really want to get a pair of flares, I have notice so many bloggers and runway shows showcasing the wider cut leg and it looks great! It took me a while to hop on board for skinny jeans, and now I live in them... I dont want to make the same mistake and wait out the flare trend until its too late.

wow, i love the different jean looks on you. i have yet to find myself a pair of flares, but am loving that they're in style this year!
cute and little
come join the Color Brigade!
J, I always love your color combos! Nice work! I'm loving the fact that flares are back for spring. They play up curvy hips and thighs, and they are a perfect mix of tailored and casual when paired with a blouse and blazer. Nice post!
I'm really loving all the new colored jeans this year. I've never really did a color other than black but think I'll venture into red or something fun this upcoming year. For some reason white jeans have never appealed to me. They do look adorable on you though. Thanks for the tips. I really LOVE your blog :)
I love big flare jeans! They are so Rachael Zoe inspired! LOVE your blog
Where did you get the creamed crop jacket from? You paired it w/ the Gap Flare Jeans. I love that look!
The one with ruffles and buttons? I bought that at H&M about 5 years ago! :-)
I totally agree Teresa! I waited too long to get on board with skinny jeans.
I seriously need you to come be my stylist! I love straight leg jeans, and I really want to get a pair of white ones, black, and grey
I love your blog!! I love all the looks you show here!!! So, you give me some ideas!
I have had a pair of flares for a few years now, does this mean I was out of style before? ;) haha. I used to wear them with heels and cute t's and vests. Thanks for the inspiration outfits, J. I love them.
I love skinnies :)
The ones you've from GAP are great!!! The ones who wear with the dots blouse and white bag ;)
Kisses.
love these looks! i can' decide which is my favorite, though...i really like several of the skinny jeans looks!
My closet is full of skinny jeans, one pair of flares and a few bootcuts. The one thing I have yet to try is jeans of color (grey doesnt count) So I am looking forward to spicing up my wardrobe with a pair of red, pink or yellow jeans!!
Haha, no! I had a pair of flares I've been wearing this whole time too. :-) I think the difference is that stores weren't selling them for awhile. The runway brought them back and now a few (like Gap) are selling them again!
In the top row with the flares, where are the sequin shirt and green jacket from? I love em!
Tory, the sequin shirt is by Chan Luu and I bought it at TJ Maxx. The green jacket is by Gap last fall. The good news is that everyone is selling jackets like this right now!
I really need a pair of flares now!
I love the slim jeans that have the silhouette of a skinny jean but aren't as tight. I have a pair from Levi's and Vera Bradley (Khols) and love them both!!
Thank you for this post you are helping us so much we need inspiration for the next season :)

J, where'd you get the polka dot top? Have a link, by any chance? =)
Which one? The navy one I wore with red shoes is from J.Crew last fall. The white with blue polka dots I wore with an aqua cardigan is from LOFT also last fall. :-)
I love flare jeans

great outfits! love your blog :)
Great outfits! Love the first sets the most. I haven't found a pair of flares that flatter my hips yet, any suggestions?
What is it about flares that you don't like on your hips? It is the rise of the jeans maybe - have you tried both a high and low rise?
Good thing I kept all my flared jeans lol.
From #5, the middle picture with the red jeans, that looks is sooo gorgeous. I LOVE that top and belt. Have you posted it here before? I don't remember seeing it!
I just discovered this blog -- where have I been? Love the concept and your style. And I'm so happy the flared jeans are back in style (even though I just accepted the whole skinny jean thing and realize how great they are)!
I'm loving that flares are back in style! :) Goodie!
I love the brand MEK. They're super comfy and fit so well!
You have a good memory! I haven't posted that outfit before, because I actually wound up returning the shirt (looks cute in the picture, but it was way too big). I'm hoping to find one similar though and wear it soon! :-)
My favorite kind of jeans are skinny. I live in snowy Jackson Hole, WY and I need something I can tuck into my jeans!
Love your blog! Too late to ask where you found the white purse?
My purse is Juicy Couture and I found it on sale at Macy's two winters ago!
