Classics don't have to read boring. Case in point: This season's flared denim styles that resurface decade in and decade out. In a bevy of washes, flared jeans can be dressed up or pared down and perfectly toe the line between tighter jean options and beloved boyfriend styles. The perfect cut for winter's oxfords, fuzzy slides, and tread sole boots, flared jeans will be your new favorite denim style.
