Trending: High-Waisted, Wide-Leg Dress Pants Outfits!

Go high and go wide!  That’s the fashion message we’re getting this Spring about what kind of pants to wear.  A high waist + a wide leg are a striking, modern combo.  Here are 3 chic, high-waisted, wide-leg dress pants outfits that prove my point!

High-Waisted Wide-Leg Dress Pants + Tank Top

After years of leg-hugging skinnies, wide, flowy dress pants are in the spotlight. I haven’t bought a pair yet, but I’m really excited about this relaxed, feminine look.  This lavender pair with the soft pleats is stunning.  I’ve paired them here with a thin, knit ribbed tank for a glamorous summer look.

A close-fitting top like this helps to highlight the waist and gives you a great shape.  Chunky-heeled sandals are a perfect shoe for the wide, flowy leg (The wider the leg the chunkier the heel).  I’ve also added this structured faux croc bag with a cool, icy look and these raffia lavender earrings to give the outfit some texture and polish off the look.

Hot Pink Hight-Rise, Wide Leg Trousers

Many of the wide-leg pants we’re seeing this Spring are bright and cheery. Hot pink is one of the most popular colors and looks fabulous paired with other saturated hues.

I love the combo of yellow and pink in this outfit because it’s so fresh and new. These pants are ideal for hot weather since they are linen and look sophisticated and vacation-like worn with this pretty camisole and cropped cardigan.

Belted High Waist, Wide Leg Pants

Camel pants are always a hit because they are a great canvas for anything you wear with them.  I love the flowy look of these full pants with the slimming waist belt. A cropped sweater gives you a soft, cozy look.

You can wear heels with these, but a modern way to style these is with a pair of cute chunky sneakers. It may take a bit of getting used to, but once you are sold on the comfort, you’ll start loving the style. Add an elegant bag and some classy earrings, and you are all set!

Paperbag Waist Wide Leg Pants

One of the easiest ways to look youthful is to highlight your waist, and these casually chic pants do just that. These high-waisted twill pants have a cute tie waist  and a relaxed wide-leg fit.  Olive is always a great summer color and looks fabulous worn with other neutrals for a classic, laid-back look. With waist-tie pants, be sure to choose a top you can tuck in.

This breezy linen blouse is in keeping with the natural vibe of this outfit and is easy to tuck in to show off the waist tie. Wedge mules and a fabulous bag to match elevate the look.
