Finding the perfect pair of jeans is like the holy grail of the fashion world, and once you find a fit that works, it can be hard to stray. That’s how I feel about my beloved barrel leg jeans, but then I saw one of Naomi Watts’ latest looks, and everything has changed – I suddenly have the urge to try flares.
The 1970s-inspired jean shape features a fitted top and a kicked-out, wider flare from below the knee, which manages to stay relevant when it comes to the latest denim trends. It's not a style of jean that I had considered before as I tend to stick to slimmer-fit silhouettes, but Naomi showed off a seriously chic pair by Alice + Olivia last week, and now it’s all I can think about. The star looked incredible in her lighter blue, wide leg pair, and styled them up with a fitted red suede shacket, heels and a soft mink-toned bag.
