Today I'm back from a brief hiatus to debate a controversial fashion trend: the high-waisted pant. I have heard many complaints from people (mostly male) about this trend, and while I completely understand, I still cant help but indulge. The benefits of a good high-waisted pant far outweigh the drawbacks, but I do agree that there is a thin line between cute and extremely unflattering.
Once you find the right pair, these pants can be extremely versatile. They are comfortable (just don't buy them too tight!), they wont show your underwear or worse - your butt-crack, and they can pair up with almost any shirt to create a great hourglass shape. I recognize that this trend is said to be for "skinny girls only" but I would urge anybody to try on a few pairs, you may like what you see :)
Rules for Buying High-Waisted Pants:
- Don't pick ones that are too tight around your hips (look for pockets!)
- Make sure your butt looks good! Nobody likes a saggy diaper-butt
- Avoid the hammer-pant style. I know they are comfortable but again, the diaper-butt.
- Make sure they hit at your natural waist, if not they may ride up and yikes! camel toe.
- Check Value Village, dont spend big $$$ if you aren't sure.
- Don't listen to the haters: always dress to please yourself :)
