How to Make Your Whites Brighter

Not everyone wants to make a dramatic statement. Not too trendy, these subtle flares are very ’70s lite. What’s more, the less-exaggerated bell is incredibly flattering on all figures.

We love the worn in look of these dark jeans from Old Navy, and we love the price even more. Try these bell-bottoms with wide, strappy heels to create a vintage-inspired outfit.

With a flat, dark wash and incredibly simple detailing, these flares might be dramatic, but they also give-off a certain French girl vibe. Wear them with a slinky white tank and Converse for day, chunky sandals for night.

Skinny Denim Jeans



Our favorite way to wear skinny jeans these days is a bit cropped—it gives you sort of a gamine look. Show off sparkly flats—or any flats, really—with this ankle-cinching pair from the king of American glam, Michael Kors.

The inky blue color of this pair of skinnies is so covetable and so right now. Plus, the incredibly comfy, distressed legs give off that I’ve-had-these-for-eons vibe.

We love that while these are narrow, they’re also relaxed and a bit tomboy-ish. Really, they’re so easy to wear: Pair with sky-high wedges and you’re good to go.

The classic boyfriend style never gets old, especially in a worn-in, easy denim. We like pairing this version with heels and a blazer. Very Katie Holmes.

For something a little edgier, go for grey denim. It looks amazing with black,and can always be dressed up for work.
