Modern Flare

Gabriele Hackworthy, fashion director of Porter magazine, gives a lesson in how to wear flared jeans, retro but modern.  She is wearing a Talitha fringed suede poncho, a Wendy Nichol bag and vintage Balmain flares.  Looks super cool don't you think?!

Feeling Flare-y

I discovered whilst closet cleaning/reorganizing that I own quite a few flared jeans and corduroys which I barely remember wearing or buying.  But there they were patiently waiting, knowing their moment was about to come again.  I do not think I will give up skinny jeans entirely for flares - flares are more work, they need a specific shoe and a cropped skinny jean is just too easy - and flattering.

My retro flared jean inspiration: Jane Birkin...
