Denim Guide: Wide Leg

I hate to do repeats... but this wide leg denim trend is not going away. Nor would I want it to. Unlike skinny jeans, which let's be honest, aren't the most flattering, the right proportioned wide leg jean can make heavier figures more balanced, add curves to those lacking and look adorable on everyone in between. So check out my old picks, and some new ones below...
J Brand's Kat Wide Leg Jean is a true fashion forward pick... And you must must must pair them with heels. Otherwise you will be swimming in all that fabric (and risk looking about four feet tall.)











The slimmer cut of this AG Mona Trouser Jean looks great on curvy gals. The wide leg balances out a fuller top half and the super dark lightweight denim is incredibly flattering. Style note: Look for jeans with clean lines and monochromatic instead of contrast stitching. Contrast stitching breaks the body into sections, which is not a good idea if you are trying for a long lean look.






Craving more curves? Then anything that brings attention to the waist is your best bet. Try Anlo's High Waist Trousers to add shape to your frame. And make sure you tuck in your top to bring attention to the tab detailing on the waistband.








For a more budget friendly option, try J.Crew's Trouser Jean in antique blue denim. At $135 it may not be dirt cheap, but it can serve double duty: dressed up or dressed down.
