FLARE ATTENTION

20160409


Friday finally came around. I woke up happy and excited, and drank cups and cups of tea throughout the day in my favorite pair of pants. My friends have noticed me wearing them frequently, and they definitely receive compliments on a daily basis. They draw people's attention, so if you like that kind of thing here's a taste of my day in them. GIVE ME ATTENTION!

When people ask me what I do in Boston, I kind of hesitate because I honestly don't do much besides walk around and cafe hop. I like to sit around with a friend and people watch which is exactly what I did today with my friend who was craving donuts at Dave's Coffee in Providence.









We sat for hours just relaxing. I even got some leisure time to read the Elle April issue. On one of the pages, I saw a brand that is very affordable with a well thought out collection called & Other Stories. It's apparently a brand under the H&M Group. I recommend for you to check it out here!









And now onto to what I wore...









When a trend happens they either disappear, or they come back new and improved. Skinny jeans have become a big hit for years, and its popularity may be for bringing out a nice shape in the legs. But there are other cuts that frame the body beautifully!

I personally love the flare jeans that are starting to show up. They are, at regular length, past the ankle and can compliment your cute heels. They also frame the calf and thigh while adding extra curves to the overall silhouette.  But a shorter cut off point has its advantages.

Boyfriend jeans that are cuffed above the ankle have been popular. It gets rid of any bunching at the bottom creating a clean cut look, while still looking loose and comfortable. Also, showing a little bit of ankle looks refreshing and mobile. It's like a miniskirt for your calves. Combine that with the perks of flared jeans and tada! Cropped flared pants!

They go well with narrow ankle / sock boots or oxfords and loafers. High heels are sometimes necessary with long flare jeans, but if you're like me and can't walk well in heels, then I would recommend the cropped version. Cropped flare jeans or cropped flare black pants should be a part of your wardrobe. I purchased my black Zara cropped flares, and I constantly wear them since they are appropriate for many occasions.

Did I say "cropped" too much? I tried to crop some out. Anyways, I love cropped flares and wish I can grow a crop of them.





By the way, we got more tea after that.. Shocking.

It's still not spring weather here in the east coast but I am highly looking forward to sharing lighter clothing and colors. The cold just makes me envelop myself in the heaviest blacks possible. We will see... Thank you for giving me your attention. It's the pants, right?
