Olivia Wilde Wore the Elongating Jeans Style That Jennifer Lopez Is a Fan of — and Now We Want a Pair, Too

Tired of squeezing yourself into a pair of skinny jeans? We’ve got good news for you, courtesy of Olivia Wilde.

At a recent event for Baby2Baby and Huggies, Wilde sported a pair of flare jeans. The exaggerated bell-bottom hem was at once elongating and super flattering with a 70’s-inspired aesthetic.

Wilde isn’t the only fan of flare jeans, as Jennifer Lopez and Mindy Kaling have been spotted in the style lately, too. Flare jeans have a leg-elongating effect that enhances your shape, and the looser fit gives better airflow than tighter, skinnier options.

Whether you like your jeans baggy or cropped, and a high-rise or mid-rise waist, you can find a pair of flare jeans to suit your style. Keep reading for options starting at just $19.

If Wilde’s flare jeans caught your eye, this pair from Amazon is a great option for your spring closet. The Grapent flare jeans come in a similar blue wash, and their wider hem has a similar vintage vibe. They’re also accented with angled fading at the legs and are available in 26 other colors, including hot pink, brown, and black, and 28-inch and 32-inch inseams.

Over 2,400 Amazon shoppers have given the flare jeans a perfect rating. “They are as comfortable as the jeans that cost hundreds of dollars but th -

ese are just as nice and more affordable,” one shopper asserted. Other reviewers said they’re “comfy and stylish” and that they have “enough stretch to fit your curves like a glove.”

If you’re a fan of cropped jeans, this J.Crew style will be calling your name. The subtly cropped fit hits right above the ankle and lets you show off your shoes, whether you dress them up with strappy heels or go casual with sporty sneakers. They’re also designed in soft cotton and come in classic, petite, and tall lengths. 

“Love these crop jeans. A great way to elevate your wardrobe,” one shopper said. “They have a lot of stretch and are very comfortable to wear.”

Ready to take a page out of Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter book (well, album) and wear a pair of Levi’s? These Levi's jeans have a slim fit through the hip and thigh, with a silhouette that — you guessed it – flares out at the bottom. Play with proportion by wearing a fitted top, so the focus is on the exaggerated hem. Choose from sizes 24-32.
