It's no secret that one of my biggest weaknesses is buying jeans. I'm a self-proclaimed jeans girl and I'm always looking out for the best new brands and silhouettes. Lately I'm all about a high-waisted fit. I was skeptical at first but I've really discovered that high-rise pants are almost always flattering. They sit at the skinniest part of your waist and make your legs look miles long. This style is also perfect for the cropped blouses that are everywhere lately and great for tucking in slim oxford shirts.
