What to Love About High-Waisted Bottoms?
1. There is really nothing more flattering than high-waisted bottoms. Not only high-waisted is the universally flattering cut for every shape. It cinches your waist and creates an illusion of you having a tiny waist, which is definitely a huge plus point for those who have curvier body. Apart from these, they will make you look as it you have legs for days (petite women is going to scream for more), the perfect answer to your prayers for looking like a runway model, Gigi Hadid.
2. High-waisted looks good on any age group. Not only it looks alluring on the older customer who needs a little more coverage. It also looks good on the young fashionista who is on the verge of every popular trend that comes to the market.
3. High-waisted gives you the coverage you needed when you are wearing crop tops, yet still showing a glimpse of your skin. Best of both worlds.
Tips on Picking High-Waisted Bottoms:
- Measure and Get Your Correct Size
Some of us tend to love our clothing to be slightly loose so that it feel comfy. But, this is not the case for high-waisted cut bottoms. Bare in mind, correct sizing is an absolute must. Make sure they fit you like gloves. If its too small, they will be unflattering and oh well, you cannot breathe. However, if they are too baggy, they will make add volume to your midsection and make your body look thick, so what is the point when high-waisted is meant to create an illusion of you having a toned body?
- Aim for The Height
If you aim to maximum the effect of high-waisted cut to create an illusion of you having legs for days. Wear a pair of high heels instead of flats.
- Keep Your Top In Mind
The key of pulling off this trend is tucking in a non bulky top, keeping the waist area slim.
High-Waisted Jeans Outfit Inspo

If you need extra height, substitute it with a pair of heels. Lastly, amp up the glam with a pair of gold irregular shape earrings.
If you are bold and want to flaunt your toned abs this Summer. Choose an extreme crop top like this beautiful pink frilled accent off-the-shoulder long sleeve crop top.
