{ Crush Alert }

Recently we have had such a major, unending, passionate love for....bell bottoms!

According to Wikipedia:  Bell-bottoms are trousers that become wider from the knees downward. Related styles include flare, loon pants and boot-cut/leg trousers. 


Now that that's cleared up...lets explain the reasoning for said obsession:


#1:   They are snug in all of the right places.  A great bell bottom clings to your best assets...no pun intended!

#2:  They have the most uncanny ability to make the wearer appear taller!  Call us cray-cray...but we totally look more slim and taller while wearing our favorite pair!

#3:  How can you resist the 70's charm?! Not only does a great bell bottom look super cool..it also exudes the confidence and effortlessness that the 70's were known for!

Charlie's Angels.
You know they looked so cool! 

#4:  Rachel Zoe.  Come on, obviously!  We love how RZ incorporates the 'bell' in nearly every one of her day looks!  She knows a thing or two about the power of the flare!

Now that we've justified our bell bottom obsession, and possibly switched many of you to our 70's affinity, here are a few pairs that we just can't stop drooling over!
