The not-so-loved high waisted trousers

This is the trend everyone loves to hate. Some say it's a hard trend to pull off, but if you have already decided to buy a pair, then take a look at the next pictures to check out some outfits.

Fergie, Rachel, Mary-Kate & Keira are the ones, in my opinion, who pulled them off in a nice way. They kept it simple and wore slim tops (save for MK, who is rocking a masculine look and there's no way she could have achieved to look this cool if she had worn a tight tank top). I think high waisted trousers look cool in most fabrics, but denim, although Rachel showed us that it can look pretty if you are prudent enough with the size of the zipper.
If you have some curves, you should totally try the corset waist jeans like Fergie did.

Alexa dijo...

sometimes i feel like high waisted jeans are a camel toe waiting to happen. people should learn the difference between trendy and fashionable! haha

my opinion of high-waisted trousers have changed. but mostly only for skinny high-waisted! i usually love mischa's style, but i really don't think she suits high-waisted flares.
thnaks for the comment! x

Kat dijo...

Mk, Keira and Rachel all look amazing and so cool in the tricky highwaisted trouser. I actually think Mischa looks alright too!

this is a *perfect* breakdown of how to pull this off--and how to not. Unfortunately, I'm more Beyonce than Ashley/Keira, so I'll be skipping it, but it's great to see people pulling it off.

i got a pair of widelegged high waisted trousers! I can't wait until the weather cools off enough for me to wear them. I think Rachel Bilson pulls them off effortlessly!:)

Alison dijo...

I'm not so sure about this trend, but I do love the way the high corset style looks on fergie, maybe I'll have to just give them a chance haha

Meg dijo...

I have one pair that I only intended to wear the once. Which I did, and now they're languishing in my wardrobe. Does Rachel OC ever make fashion faux-pas?

Romeika dijo...

I think this trend is interesting if you have a certain proportion in height and weight. It's not gonna work on me, like it didn't work on Beyonce.

re:thanks!:-)

Ella Gregory dijo...

i think rachel bilson and mk olsen are the only two that look good in this

i SO agree. It's hard to pull off but some people can, and some can't. Jessica Simpson is a Hot Mess in those jeans. She's crazy.
But I actually think Katie Holmes has been pulling it off quite well. And Rachel Bilson looks cute too. She's so short that it elongates her.

Kira Aderne dijo...

I think that fashion tendencie is not for everybody...bodies like Beyonce dont fit well. Otherwise, the skinny ones get´s so cool!
you did choose the bests!

a kiss

Moose on the Loose dijo...

MK looks so so good in those pants. I enjoyed reading your post

emsie dijo...

fantastic blog! i'm not sure if i could pull of this trend - but rachel and keira look great


i've linked you, btw

Eli dijo...

It seems thought that you have to be quite short and thin to pull this off, as your examples show.

Cassandra dijo...

si la verdad que es lindo ese cardigan,lo mas gracioso es que es de mi mama y vivo sacandoselo (: .tengo un pantalon violeta parecido al de fergi,solo que es tiro bajo.
acabo de subir algunas fotos al blog, pasate. muchos besos.

Char Ruiz Manjarrez dijo...

My fave is MK's look. She looks ama-zing.
