To everyone who absolutely hated the low-ride jean trend that has been with us for the past several years, there's good news: High waisted jeans are coming back in style!
Of course, not everyone is happy about this. Many women have complained that the high-waisted jeans will make you look like a soccer mom. There have also been claims that this style is uncomfortable and makes most women look fat. Horrible! But it's ironic when you consider that many people complained about the same exact thing when it comes to low-ride jeans. The phrase "muffin top" comes to mind.
So who's right? Are low-riders more sexy? Will high-waisted jeans flatter (and flatten) your figure? That all depends on you and your body type. Here are a few tips:
If you're tall and have a lean body, high-waisted jeans will probably look great on you. They'll accentuate your hips and rear. If your figure is boyish and you want to look more curvy, try to look for flared high-waisted jeans.
Believe it or not, if you have a bit of a tummy, you may want to avoid the high-waisted jeans. They actually draw attention to this feature. Instead, opt for medium-rise jeans. At the same time, don't go for the super low-rise jeans!
If you have a short torso, you may want to stick with jeans that have a lower waist. The high-waisted jeans could make you look short.
Unless you've got the body for it, don't wear jeans that are so tight that they look like they were painted on. This goes for both low-ride and high-waisted jeans! Go for a relaxed fit.
