Normally when I wear something a little bulkier on top – like this tied cardigan with layered gingham button down, I would immediately default to my skinny jeans. But lately I’ve been trying to give my flares a little bit more love. (Besides, there the “it” jean of Fall, right?!) And I’m so glad I did for this look!
If you’re ready to ditch your skinnies (or at least try something new 😉 ), I highly suggest sticking with a pair of flares or bootcut jeans that are slim through the thigh. Just like here, the slimmer cut still works with bulkier sweaters for Fall and Winter! (All over bagginess can be hard to pull off without looking frumpy!)
Top: Old Navy (similar), Sweater: Nordstrom (similar, similar), Jeans: Hudson, Bag: Clare V. (look for less), Booties: Carlos Santana (similar)
I’m linking some of my fave flare options at different price points below. Happy shopping!
Love this! Definitely looks great with the non-skinnies! 😀 I haven’t been giving my flares enough love this year, but that’s because I have to wear super high heels with them, haha

Your flares and heels are a great combo, and that cardi looks so cosy 🙂 I really like your leopard print clutch too!
Thanks so much for your comment on my post about blogger struggles too 🙂

Hi Lauren,
Ok, so it is OK to wear booties under flares. Thank you for clearing that up for me! I am fashion-ly challenged and trying to improve!
Sara
ps- where did you get the bracelet?
Those flares look amazing on you! Your legs look miles long and they work well with the sweater!
I seriously love the mix of prints here but how subtle it is!
