I finally bought flared jeans after pinning numerous pictures of them on Pinterest! I chose these ASOS brand bell flare jeans as I liked the wash and that they were medium rise. I don't like buying jeans online as they are the hardest item of clothing to get a good fit (the struggles are real), but it's so easy to return ASOS I bit the bullet. They cost £35.
I fancied a new outfit to wear with them so picked up a Vero Moda white tank top (£8), a New Look statement boho necklace (£17.99) and a new pack of Orelia flash tattoos in rose gold this time (£5).
The jeans are super flattering on me as the bell bottom at the ankles balances out my rather large hips and derrière! I remember being horrified when skinny jeans came into style as they are not made for my shape, yet years later they are all I wear. It's nice to have flares back in style as I actually feel they do something for my curves.
The material is stretchy so fits well round the hips and thighs, before coming out below the knee. The dark wash will go with everything. Shoe-wise I will either wear my Missguided chunky heeled boots (the jeans are long enough for heels) or my trusty Birkenstocks for a laid back look.
The tank top is lush soft material and hangs really nicely. The necklace is really quite cool, it feels well made and gives an instant update to a plain top. I popped my tan Zara jacket (from a couple years ago) on yesterday as it was chilly and the whole outfit looked very 70's but in a good way (I think!).
I haven't tried the flash tattoos yet but I'm sure I'll love them!
What do you think? Have you tried flares yet? Picked up anything amazing on ASOS?
The 70s are so in right now and you have done them brilliantly if you asked me! I still haven't picked anything in this style, though I might opt for a little 70s dress :D xx

I am loving the 70s fashions that are everywhere! Boho dresses will be a summer staple :)
