Black flare leggings outfit ideas

  • Going out: a corset style top or bodysuit with heeled boots.
  • Work from home: an oversized knit tucked at the front.

Shop flare leggings.

What to wear with wide leg trousers

Balance the volume with a fitted top. Bodysuits, crop tops and tucked in tanks work best. Add a platform sneaker, heeled sandal or loafer so the hem does not drag.

What is the best wide leg trouser?

The best wide leg pants sit high on the waist, fall straight from the hip and are long enough to cover most of your shoe. Stretchy fabrics are the most comfortable.

How to dress up black leather leggings

Pair faux leather leggings with a silky blouse, a long blazer or an oversized sweater, plus ankle boots or pointed flats. Keep the top soft so the look stays balanced.

Flare leggings vs regular leggings

Flare leggings open at the hem for a longer, leaner leg line. Regular leggings are better for running and floor work. Read our leggings comparison guide.

Flare pants, flare yoga pants and bootcut leggings

Flare pants and flared pants are fitted through the hip and thigh, then open wide at the hem. Flare yoga pants and flared yoga pants are the stretchy version, and bootcut yoga pants or bootcut leggings open more gently from the knee. Kick flare and mini flare leggings have a smaller flare. Shop flare leggings.

Fold over flare leggings and low rise flares

Fold over flare leggings let you roll the waistband down for a low rise flare look, a style that is popular again. High waisted flare pants give a longer leg line.

Flare leggings by color

Black flare pants and black flare leggings go with everything. Pink flare leggings, grey flare leggings and brown flare leggings are great for a matching set. Dressy flare pants in black also work as flare work pants with a blazer.

70s flare pants and flare colors

70s flare pants and vintage flare pants inspired today's super flare leggings and flared jeggings. Flare slacks and flare khaki pants are a dressier take, and flared rib pants add texture. Beyond black, try red flare pants, blue flare pants, navy blue flare pants, gray flare pants, cream flare pants, green flare pants or light pink flare leggings.
