Main thing: pay attention to where your flare flares. It matters. The POPFLEX Crisscross Hourglass Flare flares out just below the knee. This is key because it follows the natural curve of your leg!

Next, the crisscross waistband creates a V that draws the eye to the middle, making my waist look smaller. The straight across waistband on the other flare is okay… but it’s not really doing much for me.

As for the booty, the Crisscross Hourglass Flare has a heart seam that creates the illusion of more curve and flat, whereas the other flares have a straight across seam that makes my butt look smaller and more square.

Lastly, you want the bottom of your flare to hit the edge of your shoe… NOT the top! If your flare only hits the top of your shoe, your leg will look shorter and your pants might look like clown pants.

Wear what you feel good in!
