IF YOU want to show yourself some love this Valentine’s Day, then look no further than my pick of the best flares this season. Showcasing 1970s nostalgia, flares are having a big moment. Love them or hate them, they work for most body shapes and can be dressed up or down depending on your mood. I’ve been through the high street and selected some of my top picks.
Tailored flared black trousers: For those smarter office days, look no further than a tailored pair of black, flared trousers. Black is perfect for those with a wider bottom half and the pinstripe detail on these will make your legs go on for miles. It’s perfect for petite girls. Pair with an oversized-fit blazer for an on-trend look. & Other Stories, £85
Flare leather: A little kick flare on Cos’ leather trousers is gorgeous. For those who don’t want an all-out flare, this subtle style still brings balance to the body while being slim through the leg. The cropped length means it can be paired with strappy heels. And if that wasn’t enough, they come with a matching double-breasted leather jacket. Made with 100 per cent real leather, these are worth the investment. Cos, £300
If you want to tap into that inner self-love some more, I’m holding an event for International Women’s Day on Saturday, March 2, in collaboration with Yoga with Jaina. Tickets are limited, so if you are interested, head to www.neelampersonalstylist.com/ events/ to book your space. I’ll be talking about how colour can boost your mood, increase your confidence and make you feel your most loved and empowered self.
