Olivia Wilde Wore the Elongating Jeans Style That Jennifer Lopez Is a Fan of — and Now We Want a Pair, Too

Tired of squeezing into skinny jeans? We have good news for you, thanks to Olivia Wilde.

At a recent event for Baby2Baby and Huggies, Wilde wore a pair of flared jeans. The exaggerated bell hem was both elongated and super flattering with a ’70s-inspired aesthetic.

Wilde isn’t the only fan of distressed jeans, as Jennifer Lopez and Mindy Kaling have also been spotted in the style lately. Flared jeans have a leg-lengthening effect that accentuates your shape, and the looser fit allows for better airflow than skinny, slim-fit options.

Whether you like your jeans wide or cropped, high or mid-waisted, you can find a pair of wide-leg jeans to suit your style. Keep reading for options starting at just $19.
