Throwing it way back today. Gotta love me some bell-bottom jeans, you can seriously do so much with them. No matter what your style is with these babies you’ll be able to easily add your own twist. I purchased a lighter pair recently (even though you can’t really tell in the picture) and decided to pair mine with a black lace top for more of a night look. I was debating between this top or a pink bell sleeve one but went for the black, no other reason than this one is black lol no because the pink top looked way too 70ish with the jeans and I love love lace anything. What I love about bell-bottoms is that everyone can pull it off; they make your butt look extra luscious and your legs lean and tall. Jeans usually scream casual but I feel like the flare gives you a little somethin’ somethin’ to work with and dress it up.

Here are a few tips I took away while playing around with my new pair:

1. Simple top— there’s already so much going on at the bottom, if you try adding anything else to the top with these jeans I think it’ll look like a custome (my pink bell sleeve shirt.) Even though my blouse is lace, it’s simple enough to make the bottoms stand out… right?! lol you can always just wear solid colors as well

2. Heels only— this one is a duh but I’ve seen bell-bottoms with flats and it doesn’t look too pretty. Defeats the purpose of bell-bottoms and it loses the style overall :/

3. Striped tee— I don’t know why but I love the simple black and white striped tees with bell-bottoms pants, it looks simple and schick. Perfect for a day look

4. Less accessories— again with the pants being the main focus of your outfit, adding too much accessory such as a bulky belt, hat or chunky jewelry will make the outfit look too busy. Unless you’re going for the coachella look then carry on lol

If you’re in Spain, (not sure about where else in Europe) run to the stores! Holy sales in every single store you walk by *insert gun emoji* be on a look out for bell-bottom jeans.. you can use it for the fall
