Add Some Flare with Wide Legged Pants

Wide Legged Pants Fashion by Alexandra Phanor-Faury Get ready to give your skin tight skinnies a rest this fall and opt for a more relaxed wide legged silhouette to give your legs some breathing room. Spotted all over the Fall 2010 runways, the wide hem is a favorite of Celine, Chloe and Oscar de la Renta. We love how this shape creates a straight line from hip to ankle, no matter your size. Remember if you're going for a wide flare, make sure your top is fitted to keep from looking too slouchy,and add some much needed height with heels. We've got some stylish wear-everywhere wide legged pants to help you build your stand-out fall wardrobe.
