Is there really no normal jean/pant for women right now? There is for guys. That just seems really weird.

High waisted jeans/pants till around the navel look good, theyre quite comfortable you can wear them with sandals ...

Its easier to wear a lot more shorter tops with them (in places where you cant have your navel flashing!)

Angelina Jolie making high-rise look great. This is definitely my favorite example I've seen so far. I guess it either looks great or looks like crap.

I can't do it. My mum used to wear stonewash high-high-waisted jeans that she could barely get her tiny feet through the incredibly tapered ankle opening.

It just.. brings back bad fashion memories..

Of course, if I ever get over that mental image, I do think certain styles look great on certain figures..

I love this look personally. I can't pull it off though because I have a rather large waist right now even though it shrank 5 inches. But it looks sophisticated on straight up and down figures imho.

i'm not into 'high' waist (a la Gwen) more into 'normal waist really..
but they are so HARD to find

Angelica looks divine and i like the look from Gwen's 'performing' photo

High waist pants are the best. Who wants half of their butt showing anyway???

I actually really like gwens trousers... especially the highwaisted knickerbocker trousers. I'm just not sure many could pull them off as well as her. I love the highwaists and think they're adorable on the right body type and someone who can carry the style well, but like lena said, it'd be nice if it was easier to find 'normal' waisted trousers... I finally found a lovely pair of jeans with a normal waistline, and they're lovely... but low waists are just...well, I'm just so tired of seeing them!
