When I wore the flares for the first time, I wore them with my white and black plaid coat that I bought last year before my Germany trip at Banana Republic for 70% off. The coat is a classic that I’ll have for many years. The flares (I bought them in tall) skim the floor as they should, but I think I may have them hemmed just a tiny bit so that they won't completely clean every surface I walk on...
Outfit Details: High Waisted Flares, Black/White Plaid Coat (I like this one), Black/White Plaid Boyfriend shirt, Grey Sweater (similar), Rebecca Minkoff Dog Clip Saddle Bag, White Rimmed Sunglasses (similar)
Questions: Do you have any high waisted pants? If so, do you like them? Do you have flares?

This outfit looks fabulous on you! Yes, I wear flares. But I also wear skinny, straight leg, bootcut...whatever I'm in the mood for and looks best with the rest of my outfit. I don't own any high waisted pants, but I have been weeding out more of the low rise pants in my closet and replacing them with a mid rise. Everything is tucked in a little better!
ReplyDeleteYes, I don't like wearing my low rise pants anymore either... And I had quite a few as it seemed that was all that was in the stores for awhile. Most of my pants are mid rise as well, but I'm pleasantly surprised by how much I like the high rise pants.
DeleteLove these!!

Thanks, Jodie! Isn't it funny how we can't imagine certain styles at times? I remember a time when I would have never ever put on high waisted pants, but I really like these!
DeleteAnd you already have these beautiful long legs! What a beautiful color. I also love the coat.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nancy! I'm very happy with the coat as well. It was such a great deal and a style I love and know I'll wear for many years.
DeleteI do love a pair of flared trousers.There is an elegance about them. These are in my new favourite love colour too.Looking fabulous Andrea x

Thanks, Jess! It's interesting how hard it is to judge sometimes how tall fellow bloggers are, isn't it!?
DeleteYes to the flares! I love flares and high waisted ones are so great! I love how you paired them with a longer coat! You look terrific!

Thanks, Dawn Lucy! I also love the coat and pants together; happened rather by accident... :-)
DeleteThe burgundy flares with the black and white coat look great, Andrea. I've totally abandoned low-rise. I sold all my low-rise pants and jeans and am loving replacing them with more comfortable ones that don't need to be hitched up every 5 seconds!
ReplyDeleteYes! Not having to pull up your pants is such a relief! Makes me wonder why we so readily put up with it for quite some time... I guess partly because you could almost only find low rise for a while. Plus, anything but low rise seemed so outdated... Funny how everything goes in a circle...
DeleteHigh waisted jeans make a nice change from hipsters, but I have to say I love both. Jacqui

I'm glad you still like your low rise pants. I have a really hard time wearing them, which is a shame as I have quite a few...
DeleteAndrea, that's a great look. But I agree, you have to make them a little shorter so they don't sweep the sidewalk. I hate low-cut pants now, so these high-waisted jeans sound good.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jean!
DeleteThanks for linking up to Top of the World Style.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by & have a great weekend!
Deletelove these pants!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kristin!
DeleteAndrea, I'm so glad that bootcuts are back in style because they can make legs look like they are a mile long. Your combo of burgundy with black and white is brilliant and you look fabulous. Thank you are sharing your style inspiration with my Fine-Whatever link up.

Yes, bootcuts definitely elongate your legs... :-)
DeleteI have a super short waist so I've actually never owned any high waisted pants. I love the plum color and your coat is beautiful. You're so right, a definite classic.
ReplyDeleteDebbie

I'm actually quite short waisted myself, so I don't tug things into high waisted pants...
DeleteI have some flares that aren't quite as flared. Wore them yesterday, in fact. Kind of liked switching them in to shake things up with all my skinnies and ankle pants. Love your high-waisted pair.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Leslie! I love that all different kinds of pants are in stores and in "real life" right now... :-)
DeleteI don't have high waisted pants, they don't flatter my figure. But I do wear flares, I love that look. I keep them long and wear them with wedges so that it adds some length to my short girl legs! LOL This plum color is so pretty, it looks great with the coat, and it's a really fun shade!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Checked out your link, these pants are only $13.99! I'm going to have to go check them out!Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThese pants just came in the mail to me the other day and I L O V E THEM! Oh my gosh, if I never wore another pair of pants than these, I could die a happy woman! I bought them in black and in the plum and have zero regrets!
