Hi Jana. Generally you should decide on the length you want to wear your straight and wide or flare leg jeans and keep them at that length without cuffing. Cuffing should be reserved for skinny jeans, boyfriend and girlfriend jeans and only some very casual straight leg jeans (cuffed to an ankle length). I’d suggest you determine one heel height to wear with them and stick with that. Fortunately right now you can find chunky or lug sole loafers and platform sneakers that work well with jeans that are longer.

I am wondering how weird it looks to cuff my long, wide-bottom jeans. I can wear them fine with heals, but is it appropriate to fold a cuff for flats? The jeans have a sewn seam several inches above the hem, which creates a natural fold. (The jeans are Chicos’ trouser jean.)

So, that said, after having just read the book about Project 333, which I think every woman should read, I am having a bit of a different mindset about fast fashion, the pollution that all the throw away clothing makes, environmental cost of massive consumer demand, exploitation of underpaid workers who make the clothing, wow, lots of things I never really thought about, but obviously we all should!! I’ve been actually trying to get to the “less is more” place for a while personally, which is something we can all appreciate, especially if we have had to dispose of our dear parents households. So, with the idea of being more mindful about our clothing choices, less concerned with “trends” and only adding pieces that work with what we have (and our style aesthetics?), and if three new items can accomplish that, what would those be? AND please, how to combine those items everyone has in their closet to look fresh and stylish, which I know you do, thank you! Personally I would never spend $168 for a plaid shirt that I will wear to actually get dirty, when Eddie Bauer, J. Crew & Lucky give such reasonably priced cute fashionable choices that wash n wear & work great for real life. My grey jeans I bought a great brand on eBay new with tags. Not flare, but straight is in for the long run. We do things in our clothes. Everyday brings stuff like dirt, hair from our beloved pets, dust, cooking & eating spills, real dirt from the garden, hiking, camping, and playdough & much more from the grandkids. Then there is bug spray, sun screen & yes, sweat! I want my clothes to perform well for me, and we should think about this as well as cost per wear for anything new we purchase. This would be an interesting topic to explore. Thank you for hearing me out, I want to be proactive and understand issues and be environmentally aware.

Hi Kathy. They’re definitely on trend but I’ve just opted out of that trend so far. No particular reason. And I love them on other women. Go for it!
