Typically the flare-cut styles should sit just below your natural waist and should be slightly loose through the leg. A bonus about these jeans is that it will never go out of style and it is so easy to dress them up for occasions.

Those with larger frames should apt for wide-leg styles as they are really great for concealing physical flaws but avoid choosing styles that are too baggy.
Do not be afraid to but more than one pair once you find jeans that fit your perfectly. With this newfound knowledge, your next shopping trip should be much more efficient.
