These Are the 7 Best Shoes To Wear With Flare Jeans, According to Stylists ...Saudi Arabia

Flare jeans have a long, colorful history. They first gained popularity in the 1970s and quickly become a trend that defined the decade. Today, they're back and better than ever. While I always considered them trickier to style than, say, straight leg or wide leg jeans, it's all about the accompanying top you choose and most importantly, the footwear. So, if you're wondering what shoes to wear with flare jeans, stylists suggest choosing options that flatter and elongate the legs.There are plenty of styles of footwear to pick out that create this effect and experts have all the best advice to help you do so. After all, wearing flare jeans doesn't automatically mean you have to create a "retro" look. In fact, you can take a pair of modern ankle boots and create a clean, minimalistic look that's toned down, but still incredibly stylish. If you aren't sure where to start when it comes to styling flare jeans, celebrity stylist Emily Men and personal stylist to female CEOs Samantha Dawn have you covered.

Men describes flare jeans as similar to the style of bell bottoms. "They typically are more fitted at the waist hips and thighs and have a wider silhouette that kick out near the calf," she explains. Dawn adds that these have a bit of a retro, '70s look to them while still remaining modern and chic. "The flare adds balance to your proportions and creates a long, lean line, especially when worn with the right shoes," she says.

What Kind of Shoes Should You Wear With Flare Jeans?

The sky is the limit when it comes to choosing footwear to go with flare jeans, but Dawn and Men have a few suggestions listed below.

While both stylists stress that you can wear any shoes you like with your flare jeans, Men says it's important to pay attention to the way they're hemmed. This will help you decide what kind of shoe to wear with them. For longer-hemmed jeans, you might want to consider shoes that elongate the legs (like they mentioned above) to balance the look. Ankle boots work well with shorter-hemmed jeans, but Men says as a general rule, she would avoid wearing flats with any type of flare jeans. Dawn, on the other hand, says, "I avoid high volume sneakers as it tends to make the bottom half of your silhouette appear way wider than we want."Related: 7 Ways to Style Cargo Pants at Any Age, Celebrity Stylists Reveal

What Shoes To Wear With Flare Jeans: 7 Best Options, According to Stylists

1. Block-Heeled Boots

Black block-heeled boots are a personal favorite because they go with almost anything and Dawn agrees. She loves this particular style with flare jeans because they add polish and structure to an outfit while elongating the legs. Block-style heels also tend to be more comfortable and better for all day wear.

2. Clogs

Another style Men loves to pair with flare jeans are clogs. You might have to choose carefully with this style, but platform clogs are a great option, along with open-toed clogs. Each of these styles can go with a more casual flare jeans look or can be dressed up a little more.Related: These Are the Best Shoes To Wear With Wide Leg Pants, According to a Celebrity Stylist

3. Pointed-Toe Slingbacks

If clogs aren't your thing, Dawn says to try pointed-toe slingbacks. "Sleek and dressy, [they 're] perfect for elevating denim for night," she says. These also created a sculpted and tailored look with a pair of flare jeans. Even if you don't typically like stilettos, you can go for a pair of kitten slingback heels.

4. Wedge Espadrilles

Espadrilles almost feel like a forgotten style at times, but Dawn says not to count them out. "[These are] a summer go-to that keeps the proportions balanced," she explains. They pair so well with a breezier look like a tucked-in button down and flare jeans or a a crop top. Related: These Are the Best Shoes To Wear With Dresses, According to Celebrity Stylists

5. Heeled Mules

Heeled mules are such an easy and comfortable shoe to wear with a variety of outfits—from midi dresses to wide leg jeans, but Dawn loves to pair them with a solid pair of flare jeans. She says they're effortless, chic and easy to slip on while adding extra height if you're petite.

6. Western-Style Boots

While cowboy boots don't always pair with everything, Dawn says they do work nicely with flare jeans. These work great with a pair of flare jeans with a wider opening at the bottom. Additionally, Dawn says, "They add character and pair perfectly with flare jeans' retro vibe."

7. Platform Sandals

Both Men and Dawn love platforms with flare jeans as a general rule, but platform sandals specifically are a great spring or summer combo. Dawn says they can bring a fun retro edge to a flare jeans look and are surprisingly comfortable.
