Now that we’ve gotten used to wearing comfortable clothes during the Coronavirus pandemic, we don’t want to give up that laid-back feeling. But we really want to look good too, so designers have come up with new ways to do just that. This spring, there are loose designs of just about every item of clothing, including jeans. So there is a resurgence of flared jeans once again. They come in a wide variety of styles — from ’70s bell-bottomed versions to a more modern kick-flare leg, as well as crops. Age doesn’t matter because there’s a modern way of wearing flares. And when you do that, there’s the benefit that it makes you appear younger! So let’s take a look at the fundamentals of how to look terrific in flares.
First of all, if you don’t wear jeans you can get flares in materials other than denim. To get away from the casual look, opt for a dark shade of flared jeans like black, a clean looking white, or even a navy blue in a plain style without rips to get a more classic feel. Also, you can get flares in fabrics that dress up the look. Or you can even buy trouser flares.
Now here are the fundamentals on how to look terrific in flares, starting with basic styling tips and followed by outfit ideas!
A sleeveless blazer will help you keep your cool during spring and summer business events. But it can also be layered during cold weather, and it doesn’t have to be restricted to business. It is really quite versatile. There are so many ways to wear it that age doesn’t matter.
Treat this piece as you would your favorite jacket with sleeves. Look for one in a neutral hue, like khaki or black, that hits mid-hip. It should be tailored at the shoulders but cut away from the body. Then layer a fitted top underneath — a simple tank or blouse with a high neck works best. Finish with slim trousers to play up the menswear vibe, or opt for a sleek pencil skirt for a feminine contrast.
The sleeveless blazer is chic, refined and elongated. You can mix it with sweatshirts, sweaters, shirts, blouses, turtlenecks, etc.
The following outfit combinations are based on a black sleeveless blazer. As much as possible, I will refrain from calling it black so that it can be a formula you can easily translate. But if yours is not black, simply substitute the colors of your choice.
There are three categories of outfit ideas below. First, there are outfits for business; then there are casual outfits; and finally, there are evening outfits.

About Sin
Back when I was 20 something, I knew a guy who got a really creative haircut. I asked him where he got it done. He directed me to Sin, who was doing hair in her basement back then. I had her try some daring do’s on me, and we’ve been friends ever since!
Today, she co-owns Paula’s Barber Shop in the Historic Depot Town of Ypsilanti, Michigan, where she is known for doing Rock ‘n’ Roll Hair. She also teaches art and guitar.
Sin very graciously sent me photos of her style and took photos of her wardrobe items. She said, “These are all I could find not in stage wear!” Just so you know, Sin dresses like this every day…
