I recently scooped up these cropped wide leg jeans thanks to Hudson for a concert they treated us to (hello, Florence + The Machine) and admittedly was a bit stumped as to how to style them. When this happens, I usually text Christine. She's spot on when it comes to sorting out proportions to an outfit and I loved her suggestion of a cropped top (I threw in a little off the shoulder action for good measure).

Stay tuned tomorrow -- I'll be styling these jeans a bit differently! In the meantime, I've rounded up my favorite cropped flared/wide leg jeans of the season, in case you're in the market for a pair yourself, just scroll to the end of this post.

OUTFIT DETAILS: Self Portrait top // Hudson cropped jeans // Steve Madden "Stecy" heels // Vintage clutch (saving up for this beauty here) // Celine "Audrey" sunglasses
