Since I’ve been blogging, I’ve been wearing high-waisted pants and jeans. However, I just started wearing this style, although it has been around for a few years. I was extremely hesitant at first to try this style of pants. For starters, I grew up wearing high-waisted pants (yes, this totally gives you an idea of my age). There was no other option for me to wear. Also, incredibly uncomfortable as a child.
So why did I make the switch? There’s a couple of reasons. The first being, I was really into the vintage vibe. If you’re a regular at my blog, then you know I dig most vintage looks. The other reason for this switch is common. The older I got, my body shape changed. It was harder for me to lose weight in my waist and hips (yep, I’m talking a muffin top). Your metabolism slows down when you get older which makes it difficult to lose weight.
My Favorite High-Waisted
The low rise pants weren’t working out for me anymore. I started with mid-rise and then started wearing high rise shortly after. I tend to go for an 11-inch rise but have purchased around 10-inch as well. Now, I will wear lower rise in my looser fitter pants such as my boyfriend style denim.
I wanted to share with you some of my favorite styles of high-waisted denim and pants. Hopefully one or two of these will strike your fancy (who says that anymore, haha). Tell me, what do you think of high-waisted pants? Please leave a comment and let me know.
