High Waist, Mid Rise, or Low Rise- We say ALL!

Corina- This is another frequent conversation Ana and I have when it comes to pants. I wore high waist trousers in the 1980's, in the 1990's and I am wearing them again in 2022.

Why do I love them? high waisted or pants which sit at the natural waist flatter my bottom, elongate my legs and best of all make my waist look small. They are also comfortable and easy to style. I wear mine with a tucked in t-shirt, a long cardigan or hip length jacket and most importantly a belt. I alternate between a wide belt in the same color as the pants and a skinny one in a popping color or metallic shade.

Ana- I; on the other hand, have tried and left high waisted pants alone. High waisted pants make my legs look disproportionally long in comparison to my torso. When low rise pants entered the scene, I remember pulling them up all the time. It took a while for me to get comfortable with them seating below my waist. I also had to buy longer belts.

Yet; just like that, I got curves! Mid and low rise pants accentuates my hips making my waist look smaller and my legs and torso more proportional.

In the end, not all fashion fads fit everyone the same way; choosing what is right for you is what is most important. Lucky for both of us all of these styles are back in 2022!
