The Best Jeans to Wear With Flats

When she’s not working with big names like Lupita Nyong’o, Jennifer Hudson, and Hilary Swank, celebrity stylist Micaela Erlanger also divulges her fashion expertise in our Ask a Stylist column. From the best places to source vintage to the secret to finding your most flattering jeans, come back each week for a professional’s perspective.
This year, step-hem jeans were one of the biggest trends in denim, and I’m certain they are here to stay. One of my go-tos for this denim trend is Mother’s insider crop. It’s the perfect jeans, with a subtle high waist and asymmetric hemline. These jeans are guaranteed to lengthen your legs, which means you can ditch your heels and step out in your favorite pair of flats. This denim silhouette is by far the most flattering jean style to wear with flats right now.
