Hope y’all had an amazing weekend. London Fashion week kicked off on Friday and I was contemplating whether or not I should attend it and at the end I decided not to. I love the buzz surrounding fashion week especially when it comes to street style as this is the only time you can take pictures of people without their consent. But worry not as we’ll keep you up-to-date with the latest trend from London Fashion Week catwalk.
I have never been a fan of high waist jeans but I couldn’t pass the chance to buy this pair when I spotted them at Tk Maxx. I decided to wear this pair of denim jeans with a tucked in off white blouse, black pointed asymmetric heels and a tartan jacket for a stylish winter look.
High waisted jeans: High waist jeans are all about waist cinching fit. These jeans are great for accentuating your waist, elongating your pins and highlighting your best assets. These 90’s style jeans suit most people however they can be a bit of a problem with people who have very big tummy or lack in the derriere department (as these pants trend to flatten your behind) or have wider hips ( as they tend to emphasize them too much)
Tips for wearing high waist jeans
- High waist jeans are perfect with cropped top/sweaters as they keep the stomach under-wrap and reveal a hint of the mid-riff.
- Always wear high waist jeans with tucked in shirts, tops or blouses so as to show off the jean waist band and to emphasis your waist.
- Make sure the upper band of the high waisted jeans sits above your tummy/belly button.
- High waisted jeans can be teamed up with biker jacket, blazers, cardigans and denim/bomber jackets.
- High waist jeans go perfectly fine with ankle boots, heels, flats & heeled sandals, trainers or flat shoes.
