Fall Fashion: High-Rise Pants
Can you believe it: High-rise pants are back. And can I tell you that I’m actually excited about this? No really, I am.
Being a low-rise connoisseur practically all my life, it’s always been about the hip hugging jeans, pants, and mini skirts. It’s all good when you’re thin and tasteful about it, but goodness forbid you’ve gained a few extra pounds around the waist or you bend over a bit and a little bum cleavage peeks out. Also, in my opinion the social acceptance of ‘whaletail’ – or visible panty lines – has allowed for increasing distastefulness in female clothing choices. Like it or not, high-rise styles are being revamped in your favorite designer and low end lines – ushering in a wave of chic, ladylike fall fashion.

Wearability: High-rise skinny jeans styles look great with a wide belt for an ultra-slimming effect, accompanied by cute babydoll tops or button ups that you can tuck. Wide leg styles are also a hit. High-rise slacks for the office can look chic with a grey turtleneck top and this season’s metallic silver pumps or boots.
