Perhaps I truly belong to a past generation. While skinny jeans have been the prevalent fit since 2004, my larger-thighed self is rather fond of the not-quite-so-'70s-style flare. So when I heard that bell-bottoms were back in trend, I rejoiced in the chance to not stand out in the crowd of tapered legs and ballet flats. Whether the trend has yet to reach Toronto, or just never affected the area where I live (lol I'm not surprised)... or heck, it must've been shortlived! I have no idea.
And so I continued wearing my five (/ten) pairs of jeans- collected since grade six in various washes, but the same fit: the ultra low rise flare leg- like I would anyway, of course. Besides bootcut jeans, they are great at elongating the lower half of your body in heels. Here's three ways to wear them, but the key rule to pulling this off? Feel/look/be artsy and have fun (and excuse the puns).
