^definitely cute (and definitely expensive ) the flare is just wide enough, not overly 70's

240 Euros !!! Thats insane , you can get those 7 for all mankind jeans for less than 150 dollar US !!!! Gingers sell , well their fit is amazing, I like the sweden wash best

I'm sure it's been said but the gingers are the best fitting and most flattering jeans I have ever owned...definitely worth the price!

I went shopping in Stockholm last weekend and bought myself finally a pair of high waisted flared jeans. I felt like I was the only one having them, even though Sweden is so trendy! I just threw something from my closet for the outfit but these jeans are brand called Monki and only about 40€! Very comfy...

you look nice......miss60...then again you rock every outfit

^ Thank you disco! Since you sport these kind of jeans more often, what kind of tops you recommend to pair with them? In the pic above I tried to get a bit like Kate Moss vibe and 70s going on.. but I would like to pair it with more dressy blouse when I go out. Any good ideas?

 

[disco54]

yeah easy...camis , henleys ,cropped sweaters ,halters, middriff bearing tops work well with these jeans, cheese cloth blouses , cropped blouses , blazers , I LUV to wear banded tops ,they work awesome with high waist jeans , like these

^ yeah those shirts from the links are very 70s.. i guess i just have to keep trying. wows, i dont know if i even know the meaning of all those shirt types (such as the cheese type???), lol! have to go and get a dictionary...

 

[lostinemotion]

i think she means more like the gauzey type of fabrics you see in bohemian style mexican tops

Chances are they will cost less if you order them from a US website, despite the added VAT and things. I ordered some jeans from revolve clothing last night and even though I'll have to pay 30-40€ in VAT and duties and stuff when they arrive (I know this thanks to the handy calculator on the Swedish Customs website), I'm still saving at least 50€ compared to what the same pair would cost in the only Swedish shop that carries the brand (if they even have that style..)

But you know how it works here - once the trend hits you won't be able to turn around without seeing herds of girls in them.

Those are very nice on you. Makes me kind of want to go to Monki and try them on, despite that I'm not really into high waists. B)
