Wide-leg trousers used to intimidate me. They can easily look overwhelming or unflattering if you don’t get the proportions right. Here’s what actually works: - High waist (these sit right at my natural waist, not lower) - Fitted top to balance the volume (this crop top creates a bit of shape) - Statement belt to define the waistline (this is non-negotiable for me) The key? Don’t overthink it. If the pants are doing the talking, keep everything else minimal.
