Trend Alert: The Flare Leg

This season, the sexiest pair of jeans you'll own is the flare leg.
by

This season, the sexiest pair of jeans you'll own is the flare leg. Need proof? Just check out a couple of Fashion Week's chic street-stylers and a few of our favorite celebs — Olivia Palermo, Heidi Klum, and Rachel Zoe — all rocking their respective versions of the flare. It's a little more '70s rocker than the wide-leg, and we love how it hugs in all the right places. For now, play up the retro vibe with a shaggy fur topper, or play it down with something sleeker; then, when warmer weather hits they'll look just as cool with a floral tank or a boho top like Heidi's.

Gap Debuts 1969 Store With Exclusive Styles

Gap debuted its 1969 store in SoHo today, giving editors a first look at the premium denim shop. The first sign that this boutique is independent from its parent? Gap isn't mentioned in the store name. Creative director Patrick Robinson was there, handing out hugs and a thorough explanation of the concept. "This is truly 1969," he said, "where we can push the extremes of the 1969 brand. It's a whole new elevation of the product." The minimal boutique, complete with an iPad bar and jeans experts, will showcase exclusive denim made for the store, along with hand-chosen styling pieces from the Gap main collection and Gap's core denim collection. Expect premium fabrics from Italy and Japan, and more fashion-forward styles, with Gap prices. Currently, 1969's main focus is the flare, which is also Fab's obsession, with loads of styles and washes. When asked about collaborations, Patrick said they would consider carrying outside brands — "stuff we find and love" — and that collaborations on accessories would happen when they find "interesting people doing interesting things." Get a first glimpse at 1969 and some of the exclusive styles you'll be dying to get your hands on.

Byrdie Bell let her cocktail pants bloom at the Winter Wonderland Ball in NYC recently. The socialite-philanthropist-model-actress had one of the most intriguing outfits of the night, standing tall and proudly flare-legged among the more traditional crop of ladies in dresses. The '70s bell-bottom has resurfaced recently, but the evening bell-bottom could be ushering in a whole new trend in party dressing. What do you think?

T00glam looks like a Londoner and I love it. Her slightly flared pants, rocker tee, and striped blazer are very circa-1960s Beatles chic. For an extra UK oomph, she accessorized with chunky Mary Janes and a leather satchel. London's calling!

Come back and tell us what you have on, girl.

Congrats to t00glam!

Saks just added new styles to their sale and I'm jumping on it! I know it can get a little daunting when there are so many items to look through but you can use their handy search box and sort by price (I use the low to high option). That way, you can find the best deals — pretty cool, huh? This Marc by Marc Jacobs Zigzag Stripe Top ($118, originally $198), would go perfectly with my high-waisted flared jeans . . .

Trend Alert: Flares Are Back!

Flares are back!

Flares are back! It didn't take long for us to see flared pants back on the runway. Not just limited to jeans; flares have taken on new prints, textures, and colors. Balmain (left) went boho-rocker in a blue and white tie-dyed number paired with a glam sequined top. This retro-inspired look is easy to wear and flattering on almost every body. I for one, am glad to see flares back in action — are you?
