If you add just one piece of denim to your wardrobe for spring, make it a pair of cropped flare jeans. Mark our words, the kicky Audrey Hepburn-meets-Jane Birkin style is going to be everywhere this season. What to look for: straight-leg jeans in a medium or dark wash with a cropped hem that shows off your cute ankles. They look great with a blazer or simple sweater, but once the weather warms up, try them with a basic T-shirt. For shoes, pair them with booties or chunky pumps right now, and come spring, sneakers or sandals are ideal options. And as with any new denim trend, it's important to style your outfit to flatter the silhouette. This casual jean looks great with tailored pieces, like blazers and button-down shirts that balance out the look. Let's look to style stars like Emmanuelle Alt, Leandra Medine, and other sartorially valiant women, who had an early start on the must-have jeans of the year.
