Dress Like a '90s It Girl With These 10 Fun Flare Pants

It doesn't get more classic than a pair of flared jeans ($78). If you're looking to dip your toes into the bell-bottom business, we'd start with these. They offer a slim fit throughout and have just a slight bell starting at the knee. Dress them up with a pair of boots and a sweater, or go full-on '90s with a crop top and some platforms.

If you want to go for flares with some added sophistication, try this pair ($385) from Derek Lam. Made from stretchy cotton and embellished with sailor-style buttons, they've got a dressed-up look perfect for a fancy dinner out. Wear them with a black blazer and sky-high boots, and you'll give off serious Posh Spice vibes — and isn't that everyone's goal?

Pinstripes travel to the '90s with these funky flares ($65). Some flatforms and a cropped halter (as shown) are the ideal throwback counterparts, though if you want a more modern look, a white button-down blouse half-tucked and some flats would do the trick.

These bold flares ($250) are just begging to be taken on a tropical vacation. Slip them on over your bathing suit, or pair them with a billowy top and strappy sandals. Even if you aren't somewhere beachy, the eye-catching floral print will have you giving off luxurious, bohemian vibes anyway.

As the weather cools down, we find ourselves reaching for velvety cords more and more often. The elasticized waistband and ultrastretchy fabric of these vibrant green flares ($52) make them all the more luxurious (and tempting for everything from lounging at home to wearing to work and dinner out).

If you're looking for a flattering cropped flare, try this pair ($46) by Stradivarius. With a sky-high waist, they're ultra elongating, whether you've already got legs for days or you want to look like you do. Made from nonstretch denim, they are nice and sturdy and will become super soft as you continue to wear and break them in.

If you want to jump on the leather trend but want to find a more animal-friendly (and affordable) option, try these faux-leather flares ($37). This pair is dark and chocolatey with a matte finish. No one will know they're faux, especially if you dress them up with a cozy sweater and a pair of booties.

Want a pair of flares for lounging? Look no further. These super-soft pants ($58) will stretch and move with you, making them perfect for hanging at home, running errands, and walking the dog. Amp up the sporty look with a pair of sneakers, and you'll be good to go.

These sleek coated black jeans ($55) will be a staple in your wardrobe in the fall and winter. Dress them up or down for whatever you have planned: with a blouse and a blazer for work, a silky top with heels for those upcoming holiday parties, and a casual tee and sneakers for weekend errands.

If you want to go full-on funky flares, Alice + Olivia is the brand to beat. These super-slimming bell bottoms ($350) will turn heads wherever you go. Pick up the matching blazer for an eye-catching work outfit, or wear the trousers alone with a blouse of your choice. Whatever you choose, one thing is for sure: these flares spice up your life.
