It’s no secret that high-waisted jeans are on-trend and that I’m a HUGE fan. But we often get questions about why…why go high rise? Here are a few of our favorite reasons to embrace this trend:

• Jeans that hit higher on the torso typically highlight the smallest part of a woman’s body, therefore, slimming the waist.
• With a higher waist drawing the eye upward, the legs naturally appear longer which can also make them look leaner too!
• A muffin top or belly “spillage” that can happen with low rise jeans is never a good look.
• High-waisted jeans hold you in and can make you feel more confident in your skin!

You can find high-waisted denim at different price points, cuts (from baggy to straight to skinny), and washes. I linked a few of my current favorites. If you are looking for ways to style your jeans, this post has some great jeans outfit combos you’ll love.
