Finding jeans that look fabulous and feel comfortable shouldn’t be harder than buttoning a pair two sizes too small. Enter: high-waisted flare jeans — the leg-lengthening, waist-snatching, tummy-smoothing style that’s back in full force (and frankly, we’re never letting them go again).

Whether you’re hunting for the best tummy control jeans to smooth things out, or you just want to know how to style flare jeans without looking like you time-traveled from the ‘70s (unless that’s the vibe you’re going for), we’ve got you covered. Literally.
