Believe it or not, I used to scoff at the idea of skinny jeans before they became super popular. When they began to trend, I tried them on just to see what all the fuss was about. Looking at myself in the fitting room mirror, I fell in love with them instantly. They complimented my figure and actually made me look skinny. Who wouldn’t love that? That moment, I was obsessed with skinny jeans and leggings.

Fast forward to today. It’s not about skinny jeans anymore. It’s now about the wide-legged pant which doesn’t focus on hiding your figure but actually on accentuating it. These are trending and it makes me happy to see that women are removing themselves from that so-called social norm where people try to appear skinny even if they feel they’re not. It’s a huge step toward the right direction to being comfortable in and happy with your body.

Over the holiday break, my sisters, my mom, and I headed to the outlets and found some great deals on wide-legged pants. If you’re looking for some, I suggest shopping at Banana Republic, Zara, or Ann Taylor. Below are some photos for inspiration… to help others to put together a fun OOTD ensemble together.
