high-waisted, form-fitting flare jeans in a smooth, light-to-medium blue denim are defined by their vintage-inspired patch pockets on both the front and back, and visible seam detailing that runs down the legs, creating a slimming and elongating effect. To wear them well, lean into the retro-chic vibe by pairing them with tucked-in fitted shirts, cropped blouses, or knit halters to highlight the ultra-high waist. They are especially flattering for those seeking to visually lengthen their legs. The outfit is best completed with platform heels, wedge sandals, or sleek boots that keep the hem just off the floor, maximizing the dramatic flare.
