Having short legs with large calves, fit and flare jeans worn with heels are a game-changer for me! Totally makes me look taller and slimmer and my calves don’t feel like they are in a sausage casing!
I just found your channel and I LOVE your style and suggestions. I am a 58 year young, 5’3” average size woman and your sophisticated, yet trendy style strikes just the right balance for me! I will be binge watching for days😉💜🙋🏻
Cute ! Cute! Cute! I ❤️❤️❤️ my flared jeans ... always have - they r my go to... I don’t love skinny jeans , never have - despite losing 4 dress sizes - but I always ❤️ my flares... probably more so now coz I am straight up and down thank you 😊
Oh I am so excited for this video! I always struggle with wide leg pants, even though I know they are recommended for my body type. I am going to try these tips. Look for your ideas in my upcoming fashion videos!! Thank you so much for the tips - I love your channel!
All these years I never stopped wearing denim flares/bells/bootcuts! Although all the looks are great, I absolutely LOVE the last look with the poncho. We’ve come full circle to an upgraded ‘70s look! 💗✌🏼 ☮️ Back in the day, I crocheted my own ponchos 🤣😂🤣
I sewed in a flare into the seam of my jeans for Halloween for my Hippie costume at church and everyone loved it! I'm thinking about making a pair for my actual wardrobe. I love the way you styled these looks! I would wear any of these outfits! I remember when the straight legs were first coming into style in the early eighties and I swore I wouldn't be caught dead in them. LOL! I love them now of course but I would be excited to throw in some bells for fun! Thanks Erin!
Great video 💐 ( I had to search for this video as silly TH-cam had somehow stopped my notifications for my videos from my fave channels . Glad I found it and clicked that bell again 😬 )
Love these ideas! I always found that true wideleg styles overwhelm my frame, but I do have a few pairs of bootcut jeans that I’ve been neglecting. I can’t wait to style them with your suggestions!
The flare leg is probably my best look, but the length and heel height is so absolutely critical that I tend to lean more toward a skinny or crop. Also, I learned that for travel one can't beat "skinny". Makes potty stops in less than pristine conditions so much more bearable.
I was happy to see the poncho idea. I have a question though. How does one wear a poncho with a cross body bag? Or is a cross body bag simply wrong with a poncho? I can never seem to get a look that makes me happy with that combination.
Hahaha you are right... When that happen to me when I am wearing trouser kissing the floor...Before I open the restroom door already one hand is pulling up my trouser... to avoid touching the restroom floor.
MC Sarmiento you are so right! I knew I feel very good watching her videos, but never gave her voice a thought... no wonder i always save them for bedtime
Erin, you just continue to become more stunning in each video! Love all three looks...especially the ‘wild card’! Thank you for including a more affordable option😘
Erin - it's lovely to see how much you've changed! Your videos are always great, but you appear so much more relaxed and yourself in your current videos. This one has solid info (as all of yours do), but you seem much more reserved rather than the joyful you of today! I know from your videos you've been doing a lot of personal work and I want to encourage you that it shows! Bravo to you!
Love this video! The last look was it! I am contemplating getting a pair of boot cut jeans and this video just nodged me over. I sure will head out and get the fab ones I saw @ Debenhams. You rock, Erin!
I'm 5'10 and 115 lbs so I LOVE bootcut jeans because it allows me to look curvy! The Audrey bootcut jeans by BKE are my favorite. I get them from Buckle and I can choose the length to be extra long to go over my cowgirl boots 😊
Thank you, Erin! Finally - something for us pear girls:-) As much as I love skinny jeans, and you model them so wonderfully - boot-cut and flare are just simply more flattering. Would you please share some more tips - ion how to wear boot-cut office outfit WITHOUT high heels?
Girl, I still have flare bottom jeans that I wore the FIRST time (in my lifetime) that they were in style. Lol! Just found a box in my attic with with at least 10 pair! They're slightly less flared than the ones you're showing, but they're definitely not boot cut or skinny. However, I'm with you...I'm kinda partial to skinny jeans. For now anyway. 😉💕
Love this video! The last look was it! I am contemplating getting a pair of boot cut jeans and this video just nodged me over. I sure will head out and get the fab ones I saw @ Debenhams. You rock, Erin!
You knocked it out of the park with this one, as always. And you read my mind. Just got two pairs of flare jeans to add to my closet full of skinnies! Thanks for the inspiration!
I love that you address women with bigger hips and the importance of the right shoe with the proportions. Flares make me think hippie and personally I like that, the music and mindset. Thanks again Erin.
Love this video. I love my flared jeans but have not worn them due to skinny jeans being in. Thank you so much for providing these styling inspirations. ⭐️❣️
Loved your wild card😉. And your new work/ staging space is wonderful. I just bought a wide leg pant, but it is more a progressively wide pant instead of fit and flare. Maybe you could do a three looks, for that👍🏻🤷🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️
Finally found 100% cotton ones. This was a mission impossible. Took a lot of thrifting. Even the length was spot on. I was probably time-warped from the seventies, when they did not knew you could mess up denim fabric with elasthane.
Omg, these are my favorite style of jeans. I have the body type of a 12 year old boy, so I love the curves they give me.... I have about 30 pairs of these in J brand, Seven, and Free People as well!!! My absolute favorite of all your looks, hands down.
This is a great video and I would wear all of these looks - especially like the cashmere sweater wrap in look #3. Boot / Flare jeans in both dark wash and white are on my shopping list. I am 5’7” curvy plus size 16 with chunky legs.
Welcome, Kristy! I'm so glad you are enjoying my videos. I worked as a professional stylist for 5 years, and now I am sharing all of my tips and tricks with women in this AMAZING community in hope to make style simple for you all! New videos every Wednesday morning at 8 am EST. Thanks for watching. xo
I love my flared jeans! I was so sad when they kind of went away for awhile. Whenever i do break mine out i always get compliments. I’m short 5’1” and have a short torso, but i feel like the flares really accentuate my long legs since i have always worn mine this way - with high heels and covering my shoe so they touch the floor. My husband always jokes that i spend a lot on pretty shoes that I’m just covering up with my jeans 😂
Love the video! Love flares! Although I own several pair from my other life, haha, life before skinny jeans, I did buy a pair at the end of summer by Topshop in Nordstrom. They are awesome. White House Black Market used to make good flares. If anybody is going to look into it, they vanity size like crazy. Their denim is fantastic.
I love the look of flares - I just bought a pair of the 7 for all mankind dojo trouser jeans. Every time I wear them people stop and ask me where I bought them
Hi Erin, what’s the guidance on tailoring flares to wear with flat shoes? I’ve got my heels pair but I’d like some to run around doing errands in but I’m 5ft 2!
Would these same style tips apply for the wide leg pants that are wide from thigh to ankle? (So not hugging the thigh like in your video). I have a lot of wide straight leg pants (mostly non jean basics) and not sure if I should even be wearing them or have them taken in in the thigh to reduce volume.
Hi Erin, I'm about the same build as you and have been on the hunt for a poncho for a few years. I was excited to see how great the poncho in this video fit you. You mentioned it's cashmere but the link takes me to a merino wool poncho by Eileen Fisher. Is this the poncho you are wearing in the video? Thank you!
Erin I’m petite, only 5’2” and I like the look of cropped semi wide leg jeans. I want to try the high waist cropped leg that fits perfectly on my 130lbs shorty leg frame, any suggestions?
I love my skinny jean uniform but sometimes I get bored of it too so thanks for this video! I'm thin, short torso (despise high waist jeans-they often go drop-crotch on me), long legged and struggle with finding a good silhouette. I'm looking for more hourglass and less Gumby :/ Looking forward to trying your tips.
Hi Erin, do the 7jeans have a higher rise? My experience with them are that they sit a bit lower on the waist but they look higher on you in the video.
I'm Super Petite & Heavy (I ballooned up after my thyroid was removed in July). I can no longer wear shoes higher than an inch. I guess I'll just Rock the Short Chubby Chic look!
Hi Erin , I just started to follow you a couple of days ago , and I have been really enjoying all of your content! You are such a sweetheart! I decided to bought a flare leg dark wash jean based on your recommendations. My question is , I am 5,4 just like you, boxy bodyshape , 118 lbs and I have been looking on line for those jeans and I got lost with the inseam! I learn from you, highwaisted is the choice( 10 inch) but I am so lost about the inseam! Can you recommend me an average number please! I wear heels, but just 3 inches max Ahhhh and I did suscribe on your web page for news and looks recommendations, I love love your style ❤️. Thank you!
Having short legs with large calves, fit and flare jeans worn with heels are a game-changer for me! Totally makes me look taller and slimmer and my calves don’t feel like they are in a sausage casing!
I love your ideas for wearing flares! It's my favorite choice for a petite and curvy woman like myself! Thanks again!!
Absolutely love the wild card look! Thanks Erin! Again so very inspiring!
3 Great looks Erin! I love that new CHLOE BAG!!! Also, Paige wide leg and flare jeans are comfy!
I’m dying over that 3rd look! Great job Erin 🙌😍👖

My Favorite is the poncho look :-)
Agree!
Thanks for these tips! Being shorter, I struggle with wide bottom jeans, but I love how you styled these. Especially love that poncho. So chic!
Love the third look!!!
All these years I never stopped wearing denim flares/bells/bootcuts! Although all the looks are great, I absolutely LOVE the last look with the poncho. We’ve come full circle to an upgraded ‘70s look! 💗✌🏼 ☮️
Back in the day, I crocheted my own ponchos 🤣😂🤣
How fun! I bet your ponchos were gorgeous! ~Erin xo
Hi Erin. Thanks a lot! Love all 3 looks, especially the last one. Really a fan of flared jeans.

I'm a newer subscriber and I just wanted to stop in and thanks for such great videos and content! Absolutely love your style!
Great video 💐
( I had to search for this video as silly TH-cam had somehow stopped my notifications for my videos from my fave channels . Glad I found it and clicked that bell again 😬 )
Loooove the 3rd look!
Love these ideas! I always found that true wideleg styles overwhelm my frame, but I do have a few pairs of bootcut jeans that I’ve been neglecting. I can’t wait to style them with your suggestions!
I like the wider legged pants because they fit my curvy body better.
The flare leg is probably my best look, but the length and heel height is so absolutely critical that I tend to lean more toward a skinny or crop. Also, I learned that for travel one can't beat "skinny". Makes potty stops in less than pristine conditions so much more bearable.
I was happy to see the poncho idea. I have a question though. How does one wear a poncho with a cross body bag? Or is a cross body bag simply wrong with a poncho? I can never seem to get a look that makes me happy with that combination.
=I always struggle with wide leg pants but am going to try these tips out!
Good point, one time they had just bleached the floor in the restroom and it bleached the bottoms of my flares!
Hahaha you are right... When that happen to me when I am wearing trouser kissing the floor...Before I open the restroom door already one hand is pulling up my trouser... to avoid touching the restroom floor.
I also really like the trouser jeans that I have seen styled. They have a little more polished look. Thanks for great outfits.
I’m ok with the skinny jean trend but flares are my favourite! These outfits are great inspiration to me. Thanks!
I do love them also! ~Erin xo
The last look is my favorite!
Loved these looks and are so going to steal these looks and yes im getting a belt bag
That last look with the poncho is beautiful. Love it!
Love the poncho look
Your voice could be in a meditation. Love your voice 🤗
MC Sarmiento you are so right! I knew I feel very good watching her videos, but never gave her voice a thought... no wonder i always save them for bedtime
I love your perfect style! I love your videos! 🌼❤🌸
Erin, you just continue to become more stunning in each video! Love all three looks...especially the ‘wild card’! Thank you for including a more affordable option😘
I loved all these looks too - definitely going to try some out.
Great outfits! Could you do a video on ways to style/wrap a poncho?
Erin - it's lovely to see how much you've changed! Your videos are always great, but you appear so much more relaxed and yourself in your current videos. This one has solid info (as all of yours do), but you seem much more reserved rather than the joyful you of today! I know from your videos you've been doing a lot of personal work and I want to encourage you that it shows! Bravo to you!
You are so sweet, Alyssa! I'm feeling more energized now than ever...Truly appreciate YOU! xo
Love this video! The last look was it! I am contemplating getting a pair of boot cut jeans and this video just nodged me over. I sure will head out and get the fab ones I saw @ Debenhams. You rock, Erin!
You look phenomenal in those jeans!!
I'm 5'10 and 115 lbs so I LOVE bootcut jeans because it allows me to look curvy! The Audrey bootcut jeans by BKE are my favorite. I get them from Buckle and I can choose the length to be extra long to go over my cowgirl boots 😊
It’s Dec 2022 and gosh, I just love flares. ❤️ I’m gonna bring them back no matter what 🤣🤣👏🏾👏🏾 I’ll just be known as the woman who rocks flares.
Great video!! Thank you so much!!
Thank you, Erin! Finally - something for us pear girls:-) As much as I love skinny jeans, and you model them so wonderfully - boot-cut and flare are just simply more flattering. Would you please share some more tips - ion how to wear boot-cut office outfit WITHOUT high heels?

You knocked it out of the park with this one, as always. And you read my mind. Just got two pairs of flare jeans to add to my closet full of skinnies! Thanks for the inspiration!

Love this video. I love my flared jeans but have not worn them due to skinny jeans being in. Thank you so much for providing these styling inspirations. ⭐️❣️
So glad to hear that, Wendy! ~Erin xo
Love a flair-they look awesome and do help with proportions. Hair looking great too E.
Thanks so much, Wendy! xo
I'm so inspired!
You look so much happier this year
We used to call them "stovepipe" jeans...giving me age away. Thank you Erin, you are the best and I love your voice...it is very calming.
Loved your wild card😉. And your new work/ staging space is wonderful. I just bought a wide leg pant, but it is more a progressively wide pant instead of fit and flare. Maybe you could do a three looks, for that👍🏻🤷🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️
Wow! That's my favourite jeans
Glad you like them! xo
Thanks! This is great!
I loved look #3 !!! Can we have a better look what the poncho/ jumper thingy looks like so I can source it for myself .
Thanks Erin 😙
You have amazing style!!! I'm subscribing now since I am in desperate need of your guidance.
You looked great in all these outfits! What can you wear with these pants if the last thing you want to do is highlight your waist?
OMG your so beautiful please tell the color of your hair I watch all your channels & learned a lot from you HUGS!!
CUTE GIRL!!! I love my Viggo’s flared jeans with the bling !!!! Have you heard of them ? I always get them on sale at Maurice’s!! Hugs and love 💕xo
I love your belt bag, not into flare jeans but great tutorial. Have a great day!
Finally found 100% cotton ones. This was a mission impossible. Took a lot of thrifting. Even the length was spot on. I was probably time-warped from the seventies, when they did not knew you could mess up denim fabric with elasthane.

Glad you enjoyed! Flare jeans are so flattering and elongating! xo
I am definitely a flared jean girl. That's all I have this season!
Aren't they great? ~Erin xo
I didn’t know Express has tall sizing. Thanks for the info!!
Great video!
Love!
I just found this Chanel is she a stylist because she dresses impeccably!

New videos every Wednesday morning at 8 am EST. Thanks for watching. xo
Can you do a video on what shoes to wear with crop flare jeans? I thought it would be with the crop skinny but sadly nope.😕
Hi Erin, great video. As an hourglass I love flared/bootcut jeans. But what were you wearing? I can’t see a link for your jacket/top.
Finally! Kinda tired of the skinny jeans. I want to break out mine. Need the higher rise!!!
Loveeeeeeee 💕 💕
I loved these tips so much!! I always struggle with wide leg pants!
I love my flared jeans! I was so sad when they kind of went away for awhile. Whenever i do break mine out i always get compliments. I’m short 5’1” and have a short torso, but i feel like the flares really accentuate my long legs since i have always worn mine this way - with high heels and covering my shoe so they touch the floor. My husband always jokes that i spend a lot on pretty shoes that I’m just covering up with my jeans 😂
Loved the last look with the belt bag 💜😱🤗; mixing old trend with new (kinda 😂 ... fanny packs have been around before this).
Isn't it so fun?! ~Erin xo
Love the video! Love flares! Although I own several pair from my other life, haha, life before skinny jeans, I did buy a pair at the end of summer by Topshop in Nordstrom. They are awesome. White House Black Market used to make good flares. If anybody is going to look into it, they vanity size like crazy. Their denim is fantastic.
💕💕 so helpful in the video can you tell me the zip up top your wearing in camel and blazer your wearing where is it from💕
Love this video. I’ve never let go of the flare or boot leg. Skinny legs do not work on me!
I love the look of flares - I just bought a pair of the 7 for all mankind dojo trouser jeans. Every time I wear them people stop and ask me where I bought them
Please share how to drape that pashmina to look like that
I'm getting a 70s feel. How about the "LOVE" necklace from Bendels I bought 2 necklaces for my girls. I might borrow one when I wear a flared Jean
Mem nice tips of wearing wide trouser nd jeans I like all v.d.os
Hi Erin, what’s the guidance on tailoring flares to wear with flat shoes? I’ve got my heels pair but I’d like some to run around doing errands in but I’m 5ft 2!
Same length applies! Tailor them 1/2 to 3/4 length above the floor, with whatever shoes you plan to wear! xo
I am pear and I don't war heels. What kind of trousers would you suggest?
💚💚💗Love the vlog T y mags. 🍀💚
K, so how do we pull off that pashmina with a belt?!?! Can you do a video to show us how you did that?
Would these same style tips apply for the wide leg pants that are wide from thigh to ankle? (So not hugging the thigh like in your video). I have a lot of wide straight leg pants (mostly non jean basics) and not sure if I should even be wearing them or have them taken in in the thigh to reduce volume.
Love the poncho look with a belt ;-)
I’m around 5’4 and always confused as to what inseam to look for with wide leg or flare jeans. What do you recommend?
I love the last look, funky/artsy. How did you wrap the pashmina? Also, being 5'2" & curvy I was worried about the flare making me look shorter.
It’s a pullover poncho so you don’t have to wrap it!
Hi Erin, I'm about the same build as you and have been on the hunt for a poncho for a few years. I was excited to see how great the poncho in this video fit you. You mentioned it's cashmere but the link takes me to a merino wool poncho by Eileen Fisher. Is this the poncho you are wearing in the video? Thank you!
@nkkeane That is it...I own it and it is merino wool but great quality and not scratchy at all. Hope that helps!
You truly look beautiful in this video.
Thank you! xo
Erin I’m petite, only 5’2” and I like the look of cropped semi wide leg jeans. I want to try the high waist cropped leg that fits perfectly on my 130lbs shorty leg frame, any suggestions?
Look for a bootcut jean with a 30 inch or 29 inch inseam.
I love my skinny jean uniform but sometimes I get bored of it too so thanks for this video! I'm thin, short torso (despise high waist jeans-they often go drop-crotch on me), long legged and struggle with finding a good silhouette. I'm looking for more hourglass and less Gumby :/ Looking forward to trying your tips.
Try bootcut or straight
Hi Erin, do the 7jeans have a higher rise? My experience with them are that they sit a bit lower on the waist but they look higher on you in the video.
I was just in Expresss looking for high waist flares and they did not have one pair, only a mid rise in one style?
I'm Super Petite & Heavy (I ballooned up after my thyroid was removed in July). I can no longer wear shoes higher than an inch. I guess I'll just Rock the Short Chubby Chic look!
