Let’s be real, we are all scared to wear thigh-high socks even though we are always tempted to try. 

As a curvy girl myself, wearing thigh-high socks is a real battle for me.

Most of the time, my socks just keep falling down and I have to fix them every 20 minutes.

Even when the thighs are well fixed, my “muffin top” on my thigh ( I tried my best to describe…) just keeps squeezing out and that’s definitely not what I want.

It takes me some time to figure out what kind of thigh-high socks suits me the best and it’s always worth it.

Now, I do find thigh-high socks really flattering on me, and here are my 8 tips on how to wear thigh-high socks for plus-size ladies.

Enjoy!

1. Be intentional about the fabric

For the first tip, let’s talk about the basics first.

If you want to look good in your high-knee socks, it’s always worth it to invest some money in them.

I’ve bought some really cheap socks before and realized there’s no spandex in them.

Spandex is a lightweight fiber to gives some flexibility to the fabric and makes the high-knee socks more stretchy and breathable and that’s really crucial for us!

So ladies, always look for high-knee socks with a higher percentage of spandex material to avoid a refund!

Trust me, this is plain torture to wear knee-high thighs without flexibility.

🤍🤍🤍DISCLAIMER🤍🤍🤍:

The truth is, we are all perfect imperfections…

You want to learn all the styling hacks ONLY if you feel like it.

Remember, we never have the need to “fix” our bodies!

Thanks loves!❤️❤️❤️

2. Go monochrome for your legs and shoes for elongating effect

For the ladies who worry wearing thigh-high socks will make you look shorter, this is not true!

If you are wearing the common black over-knee socks, you can always wear black heels or black pointed flats for a tone-on-tone look.

With the V shape shoe lining and the same color as your high knee socks, it makes your legs appear to be longer and slimmer.

Of course, you can go with dark grey socks with grey shoes, they can look flattering too!

But always avoid wearing shoes with a big color contrast with your socks as this will visually separate your legs into a few different chunks and fail to avoid a slender leg figure overall.

3. Wear a sheer thigh underneath the thigh-high socks

As I’ve said before, I can’t help but squeeze the “muffin top of my thigh” whenever I wear thigh-high socks.

One of the easiest ways to deal with that is wearing the invisible sheer thighs underneath so gently squeeze my legs a little bit first before applying the thigh-high socks.

That way, those muffin tops will be less obvious and also hide my cellulite at the back of my leg too!

If you want a more slimming effect, style your black thigh-high socks with a sheer black thigh underneath is always a perfect look! “

After all, “Black x black” = double flattering!

4. Wear Fake Thigh high socks

If you think tip 3 is too much work for you (which is not actually…), you can always buy the fake thigh-high socks!

Source: Aliexpress

Yes, this is a real thing sold on Aliexpress and other places online.

With the fake thigh-high socks, you can look like you are wearing over-knee socks while in fact, you are just wearing normal pantyhose!

But since this is a relatively new product, their sizing may just stick to at most L.

But still, I want to share these tips with you as I realized not so many girls know about it.

You can always keep an eye out for the oversize fake thigh-high socks in the near future!

5. Pull your over-knee socks inside out

Another way to avoid socks from falling is to pull your socks inside out like in the photo above!

how to wear over knee socks

You don’t need knit over-knee socks to do that, you can do it on any kind of socks.

With easy folding and some adjustment, it can prevent your socks from falling.

Unless your socks are too loose, otherwise this trick should work!

6. Use Roll-On Body Fixative on your thighs

This tip is basic but I know some ladies out there still struggle should they get one.

roll on body fixative amazon

Seriously, procrastinate no more as you will need this in many unexpected ways.

Besides applying them on the thigh area to keep your socks up, you can always use body glue for the loose top and tube dresses.

Nothing exciting, I am using JOBST Body Fixative that everyone else is using. All I can say is this little glue meets its slogan – IT STAYS!

7. Wear black garters and elastic clip garters

When it comes to garters, people always think of sexy lingerie.

Source: Etsy

While that can be one of the ways to style your over-knee socks, you can always try on these functional elastic clip garters to spice up your socks and prevent them from falling in the meantime!

I am really excited that I’ve found these cute pairs from Etsy!

I have to admit that I am addicted to buying different types of elastic clip garters to style my over-knee socks now.

This is so random… BUT

  1. Your body is a masterpiece that carries you through life’s journey—honor it with the love and respect it deserves.
  2. Beauty has no single definition; you define what beauty means through your uniqueness and authenticity.
  3. Your worth extends infinitely beyond your appearance—your kindness, strength, and spirit are what truly shine.
  4. The space you occupy in this world is yours by right; never apologize for existing exactly as you are.
  5. Your body tells the story of your life—every mark, curve, and change is a chapter of resilience and growth.
  6. You deserve to speak to yourself with the same compassion and tenderness you would offer to someone you love.
  7. Nourishing your body and soul isn’t selfish—it’s a necessary act of self-respect and care.
  8. The parts of yourself you’ve been taught to hide may be exactly what makes you magnificently unique.
  9. Your body is not a project to be fixed—it is a vessel for experiencing the fullness of life’s joys.
  10. You are allowed to love yourself completely today, not when you reach some future version of yourself.

8. Avoid printed over-knee socks

Last but not least, avoid the big prints on your over-knee socks.

When it comes to over-knee socks, I do think less is more, and black plain socks are always my favorite.

Not only does it look classy, but it can also pop up on my top and dress as well. If you are really into printed over-knee socks, at least you stay away from the big prints like thick stripes.

Big prints naturally have an exaggerated effect.

With the big prints on the stretchy over-knee socks, it can further widen and shorten your leg, which is a big Nono.

With all types of designs and hues, some of the linen pants are perfect for the semi-casual ensemble and even for work.

Instead of wearing the pants with an elastic band, opt for the pleated trousers and the ones with a self-tie belt for a more poised finish.

And as much as I love white, I will avoid wearing it for working days as it can appear to be slightly see-through.

For a safer choice, I will reach for off-white colors like cream and other elegant dark hues like brown, black, or purple.

For the top, a structured Oxford shirt or a soft satin blouse is just perfect for a sophisticated look.

To break the stereotypes of linen, team the pants with a pair of animal print sandals just seals the deal.

And instead of looking soft and gentle in linen, what about creating a boxy silhouette with a boyish tank top with cuffed linen pants?

Oh, and let’s not forget to get yourself an in-style slouchy pillow clutch bag as a pop of fun.

While people may think flat shoes are not as flattering as heels in jeans, it’s not true!

With some styling tips and tricks, you can definitely look chic and put-together with flat shoes and jeans as well!

So here are the 8 tips on how to wear flat shoes with jeans to look taller and slimmer. Enjoy!


Update: If you are into classy fashion, I’ve included a jeans styling hack at the end of the video that you will love – stay tuned!


1. WEAR POINTED FLATS TO ELONGATE YOUR LEGS

With any kind of jeans, I will always pair them with pointed flats instead of round-toe flats.

Get this gorgeous pair on CHIKO <3

Not only do round-toe flats look a bit juvenile to me, but they also make my legs appear shorter and thicker.

On the contrary, pointed flats have a natural V shape, and that helps us elongate our legs visually.

When it comes to the straps of the flat, I usually avoid them, especially if it’s a thick strap.

Those straps will cut out our ankle and chunk our leg into two pieces visually, which makes our upper body look chubbier.

2. WEAR NUDE FLATS FOR LONGER LEGS

If you want to level up your game, wearing nude-colored flats is even more flattering.

Source: Merricksart

Matching the skin color of your legs makes your legs look more slender naturally.

If the nude color is not your thing, light saturation like beige can create a similar effect as well!

I adore nude flats so much that despite creating a longer appearance for my legs, nude color can help to draw attention to my top or jeans!

So if I wear printed jeans, I will usually wear nude flats to make my jeans look more pop out!

3. STYLE FLATS WITH WHITE JEANS FOR A CLASSY STYLE

Compared to the common blue jeans, white jeans naturally look more dressed up and polished.

Source: Girlmeetsgold

While many ladies always ask how to dress down in white jeans, the easiest way is to wear a pair of flats to balance the formalness out!

I love wearing cream jeans, and I realize every time when I wear high heels with them, people always ask me where am I’m going tonight.

It’s unavoidable that white jeans with high heels can look a bit too dressed up for a weekend family gathering.

If you want to look more casual in your jeans, simple pointed flats or loafers can easily achieve a low-key classy look!

4. OPT FOR HIGH-WAISTED ANKLE-LENGTH JEANS WHEN YOU WEAR FLATS

Without heels to give us a few more inches, we should always pay attention to the jeans’ cut as it matters a lot.

Despite the common high-waisted jeans rule to make our legs look longer in proportion, always opt for jeans that show our ankles (except flared jeans).

Showing the thinnest part of the legs, again, makes our legs look slimmer, and this allows us to carry our flats in a more confident way!

5. WEAR FLARED JEANS WITH SNEAKERS & HIGH PLATFORM FLATS

Flared jeans are petite girls’ and flat lovers’ best friends, as it is impossible to look bad in flared jeans!

Opposite skinny jeans and boyfriend jeans, flared jeans normally land below the ankles.

However, with its slight bell-shaped design, it can effortlessly hide your calves and make your leg looks way longer.

I can basically wear whatever I want under the flared jeans, as I know I can still look chic and taller with any kind of flats!

If you want a more casual vibe, this is your golden chance to wear sneakers! To add a few inches, you will be obsessed with platform flats!

Please be mentally ready when people ask, How tall are you as you can look like a supermodel with flared jeans and platform flats!

6. PAIR COMBAT BOOTS WITH BLACK JEANS

While you can wear pointed flats and sneakers in black skinny jeans, let’s not forget it’s a good timing to wear combat boots!

If you want to wear your combat boots low-key, tone-on-tone is always the fashionable and easy outfit choice.

Source: Pinterest

Tuck your distressed black jeans in your combat boots with a white V-neck tee and a black biker jacket; this look is always timeless and classic!

7. AVOID HEAVILY DISTRESSED JEANS WHEN WEARING FLATS

This is a subtle tip, but I can always tell the difference.

With heavily distressed jeans, those patches will create the horizontal lining of our legs and thus create an exaggerated effect.

Without the heels to make our legs appear taller, I always avoid heavily distressed jeans.

If you really want to wear distressed jeans, always look for the tatter patches located on the upper legs instead of the lower legs so that the legs can appear to be less chubby.

8. WEAR SKINNY JEANS WITH FLATS TO BALANCE THE LOWER BODY

This tip is only applicable to girls with thick thighs and calves.

It’s true that wearing heels can make your legs look longer.

But if you wear skinny jeans and a pair of high heels, you will realize your lower body looks like an inverted triangle.

Why? Because your whole legs are being squeezed by your skinny jeans, your delicate heels now look like the tip of an inverted triangle.

To balance things out, instead of wearing nude high heels, pointed flats, and sneakers can add some volume to your feet and make your figure look more balanced.

This tip really goes the opposite of the “The higher the heels, the better you look” general rule of thumb.

Sometimes, we have to take a step back to see what kinds of shoes flatter our bodies most!

Is that possible to roll up your jeans and still look sleek and elegant? YES.

Alright, let’s be real here. Who bought a pair of silk or satin pants with hype but turns out never wear them out?

If you are one of them, I don’t blame you cause silk pants can be tricky to style!

I remember once I wore a satin top and pants set and my friend thought that I was wearing pajamas. (Pathetic)

But after countless times of outfit matching, I’ve finally figured out some flattering ways to wear the pants.

So ladies, here are the 6 ways when it comes to what to wear with silk & satin pants!

Enjoy and save some of these photos!

1. EMBRACE A COMFY CHIC STYLE WITH SILK JOGGER PANTS

Let’s start with the beginner level, shall we?

Despite all the classy wide-leg pants, let’s talk about the silk jogger pants first.

If you are the type of girl that worried silk pants look so dressed upon you, jogger pants are always a good start.

I adore silk jogger pants so much because they perfectly achieve the balance between looking sporty and looking feminine.

Compare to the common cotton jogger pants out there, the silk one definitely looks more dressed up.

However, with the causal design, you can basically wear whatever you want.

Pair the satin pant with a plain V-neck T-shirt and you are going to go!

If you are reading this blog post till now, there’s one thing for sure…

You have good taste! <3 If you approve of some of these looks, please kindly pin or share some of these outfits so many tasteful fashion babes can come across this outfit inspo, thanks pretty! ❤️

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️

2. WHEN IN DOUBT, STYLE WITH NEUTRAL COLORS

Another no-fail way to wear your silk or satin pants is always to complete your look with classic neutral colors.

Colors like white, beige, black and other low saturation colors are all safe yet flattering choices.

As silk has a shiny and lustrous finish, it just naturally becomes the highlight of your outfit.

If you wear other high saturation colors like bright yellow and neon pink, those colors will visually compete with the silk pants and possibly can make you look tacky.

As for me, I always wear a white top with my silk pants. It’s not as common as blacktop and it just makes me feel so refreshed and polished.

Of course, for the cool girls, this look below is for you!

3. WEAR SILK PANTS WITH A BAGGY SWEATER FOR A CHIC STYLE

If you want to achieve the “effortlessly chic” look, you have to try out this combination!

Nothing fancy – just a turtleneck sweater and a pair of wide-leg silk pants but somehow it just looks so polished and classy.

If you want to slay this look, always remember to pair a similar shade of colors for your top and bottom so the outfit can look more complete.

For example, if you wear a brown sweater, you can consider silk pants with similar hues like beige and light gold.

Another reminder is always to pay attention to the length of the sweater.

If that’s too long, it can ruin for body ratio for sure. My personal favorite sweater is slightly above my thigh.

4. KEEP IT SIMPLE WITH SILK-PATTERNED TROUSERS

Besides the solid color pants, silk patterned trousers are getting popularity these days.

But always remember, less is always more. Never style a busy print with another busy print.

So if you wear a pair of floral silk pants, then you probably want to do the plain color for your top to take a balance.

Some ladies may wonder will the pattern and prints make their legs look thicker. It really depends.

If the prints are small and compressed in dark colors, it merely has any effect.

However, the huge floral prints in bright colors, that will for sure exaggerate your body figure visually.

5. GLAM UP YOUR LOOK WITH A MATCHY SATIN SET

If you are already getting used to the silk and satin pants, you may want to try wearing the top and pants set together for a classy and flowy look.

Shop Etsy for this set!

I don’t always wear the set together but when I do, I always avoid the baggy design as it can look like pajamas. (From my painful experience…)

Instead, I will always prefer the fitted one that hugs my curves as that just makes me look more put together.

But seriously, if you find the right set, you will look like (and feel like) a goddess!

I can’t believe this brand can make silk clothes THAT affordable! Definitely my favorite brand of the year!

6. WEAR HEELS WITH WIDE-LEG SILK PANTS

Last but not least, let’s talk about shoes. When it comes to wide-leg silk pants, it’s the perfect time for us to look taller and slimmer as we can always wear high heels or platform sandals inside the pants!

I personally prefer pointed heels more as the defined V lining matches the sophisticated vibes of silk.

To me, the round-toe heels look a bit too juvenile and sweet for the look.

As a petite girl, this is probably the biggest reason why I am so fond of the silk wide-leg pants!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So ladies, here are the 6 tips when it comes to what to wear with silk & satin pants! Let’s have a quick recap first.

  • Embrace a comfy chic style with your silk jogger pants
  • When in doubt, style with neutral colors
  • Wear silk pants with a baggy sweater for a chic street look
  • Keep it simple with silk patterned trousers
  • Glam up your look with a matchy satin set
  • Wear heels with wide-leg silk pants

People always wonder how to look expensive and classy without buying any designer brands.

Well, a pair of high-quality silk pants can definitely help elevate your look more than a Gucci belt!

I hope I’ve convinced you to try out silk pants because they are truly classy and timeless!

When it comes to classy colors, we always think of classic white, black, and grey. 

As much as they are truly timeless, let’s not forget the emerald green!

With its low saturation of green, it’s a symbol of timeless elegance and grace.

When it comes to emerald green pants, people may think it’s a bit overwhelming to style and are confused about the color pairing.

Well, it’s actually not that hard!

Here are the 5 tips and 18 outfits if you are wondering what to wear with emerald green pants!

Enjoy!

1. Pair emerald green pants with a white shirt for a casual chic look

Unlike bright green like kelly green, emerald green is a low-saturation color that goes well with many other colors.

If you are looking for a no-fail outfit combination, you can never go wrong with a white shirt!

With a pair of pointed flats or a pair of high heels, you can effortlessly look polished and office-ready!

Pairing with the different fabric of the white shirt, you can achieve a slightly different vibe for the look, here are some of the suggestions.

If you are reading this blog post till now, there’s one thing for sure…

You have good taste! <3 If you approve of some of these looks, please kindly pin or share some of these outfits so many tasteful fashion babes can come across this outfit inspo, thanks pretty! ❤️

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️

1. Cotton

If you want a more casual look, a cotton shirt is more than enough!

However, if you want to look dapper, always look for fine cotton with high thread like Egyptian cotton.

After all, you don’t want to style classy emerald green pants with a slightly see-through cotton shirt!

2. Twill

If you want some dense fabric to match the dark emerald green, twill is a perfect choice during cool days.

The twill weaves make the garment more structured and look polished.

Besides the pure white twill shirt, the ivory shirt is also a classy choice.

This type of fabric makes your outfit looks more united and put together visually.

Reminder:

Twill shirts can be hot for summer so always be flexible about the fabric choices!

3. Silk/ Satin

Personally, silk and satin are emerald green’s best friends!

They just look perfect for each other as both of them are luxurious and elegant.

If you want a more formal yet feminine look, an ivory or beige silk shirt with a pussy bow is a perfect choice!

When you are wearing a silk shirt, you don’t even need to wear any accessories as the shirt itself is shiny enough.

So yes, with the different fabrics of the shirt, you can always style your emerald pants with 3 different styles!

How cool is that.

The truth is, if you love emerald green pants, you have a good fashion taste!

If you find this post helpful, please kindly pin some pictures down below so more tasteful ladies like you can come across this content – thank you pretty! ❤️❤️❤️

2. Emerald green pants x brown top for an earth-tone style

If you want to look lowkey with your green pants during the weekdays, pairing them with a brown top can make your outfit less pop up and this is actually the easiest style for the green pants beginner!

Any kind of brown color like khaki and beige colors are the typical earth tone colors and they are the least attention-grabbing colors for an outfit.

This is why people wearing brown monochromic outfits can always blend in with the background seamlessly.

Plus, similar to emerald green, brown is a low-saturation color so it can always pair with green pants in a harmonious way and blend smoothly.

If you are looking for a lowkey yet refreshing look in summer, pairing green pants with one shoulder-beige cropped top is always a chic choice.

As for winter, a beige turtleneck is a cozy and polished choice!

3. When in doubt, go monochrome

Fashion comes and goes but monotone look is here to stay.

We all know monochrome is one of the easiest ways to make our outfit look high fashion on a budget and makes our legs look longer.

So ladies, don’t be afraid to style your green pants with different shapes of green!

But if you don’t want to look like trying too hard, you should always avoid bright green like neon green and seafoam green.

I’ve tried various types of green and so far olive green looks the best with emerald green, they just complement each other perfectly!

If you are not comfortable with going all-in monochrome (like me at the beginning of the journey of the green pants), you can always add a black blazer to balance the green layers.

It just looks classy and sophisticated with a pair of loafers!

Reminder:

When it comes to monochrome wear, we should always try to pair it with different fabrics for a more versatile look.

For example, if your green pants are made from silk, then you should avoid silk for your top.

By that, your outfit will look rich in layering even with the same color tone!

4. Style green pants with a chunky necklace or hat to look put together

If you are wondering if can you style emerald green pants with a light crop top, my answer is YES!

However, you may also want to wear some chunky necklaces or a hat to make the outfit looks more balanced.

Source: Sydnestyle

As emerald green is a dark and saturated color, if you are wearing something too light or thin, people will just naturally shift the focus to your lower body instead of the whole overall outfit.

To avoid that, you can always add some volume to your upper body to balance things out.

Wearing a V-line dark green necklace is one of the best ways to show your fashion sense and make your outfit looks more united.

In winter, it may be a bit too bulky to wear chunky accessories.

In this case, a dark green cloche hat will be a classy choice to pair with the green pants!

Reminder:

If you are a girl with chubby cheeks like me, always avoid chocker-type accessories as this will cut our necklines and make your face look chubby

Instead, long necklaces with a V shape are always the most flattering choice!

5. Corset tops x green pants

I know, it seems intimidating to wear a corset but it actually goes well with emerald-green pants!

Plus, wearing a corset as outerwear is so in style these days.

So ladies, time to get a little bit bold!

In fact, wearing a corset is not as structured as you thought as they are a wide spectrum of designs.

Again, emerald green is a dense color so you always want to wear a structured top to make the outfit looks complete.

With a thick and structured lining, a plain white or black corset top looks wonderful with the pants.

When it comes to the corset, avoid picking the one with complicated prints as the corset itself already looks complicated with all the detailed lining.

After all, less is always more!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So here are the 18 outfits if you are wondering what to wear with emerald green pants!

  • Pair emerald green pants with a white shirt for a casual chic look
  • Pair emerald green pants with a brown top for an earth-tone style
  • Go monochrome with a black blazer for a lowkey elegant look
  • Style green pants with a chunky necklace or hat to look put together
  • Wear corset tops with green pants

What do you think about these tips?

I hope you find them useful. In the past, I always thought green pants were not my style as I had no idea how to style them at all!

However, once I saw the ladies pair the green pants with the basic white shirt and still look stunning, I just realized this was not as intimidating as I thought.

And now, I’m that I don’t have to wear black and grey pants that often as emerald green pants are definitely a classy yet chic choice.

After all, as the saying goes, life is too short to wear boring clothes!

Karl Lagerfeld once said, “You can be the chicest thing in a T-shirt and jeans – IT’S UP TO YOU”.

It’s not that hard to look classy in a formal dress, but if you can dress up in a pair of denim jeans, I have to admit that’s quite impressive of you!

Jeans are one of the most versatile things I can ever think of and it looks great on every occasion.

I GOT YOU.

Here are the 7 tips on how to dress up jeans as a plus-size lady! I tried to incorporate some new ideas so I hope you girls enjoy it!

1. Go Monochrome to make the outfit look more put-together

If you want to look effortlessly classy and elegant, wearing a monochrome outfit is always the best choice!

When it comes to monochrome, you are wearing the same or similar tones of colors.

If you are wearing dark blue jeans, you can dress up your jeans with a baby blue lace top and a pair of navy blue or black heels.

With different shades of the same color, it celebrates the art of simplicity and it just makes the whole outfit look high-fashion instantly.

Plus, monochrome goes really well with curvy ladies.

Since it’s not overloaded with extra prints and big patterns that can potentially enlarge our bodies, we just look naturally slimmer and taller!

With the simple lining and same tone of color, it draws people’s attention to the outfit as a whole instead of focusing on one part of our body.

So ladies, if you want a long lean silhouette, time to try monochrome!

🤍🤍🤍DISCLAIMER🤍🤍🤍:

The truth is, we are all perfect imperfections…

You want to learn all the styling hacks ONLY if you feel like it.

Remember, we never have the need to “fix” our bodies!

2. Wear white jeans for a more dressed-up look

I know what you are thinking, “Seriously? I thought white jeans don’t look good on most people? “.

While it’s true that white jeans can be a little bit tricky to wear, with the right fabrics and shape, you can look incredibly polished in white jeans!

I personally adore white jeans so much because they are just naturally classy and feminine.

With the same black tank down, I am confident to say there’s a totally different vibe when you wear white jeans instead of normal denim jeans.

It’s such a pity to give up wearing white jeans just because we don’t have lean legs.

Well, I’ve come across women of different sizes and they look so high class in their white jeans.

So ladies, please give it a try. Well, if you are still hesitating about that, you will be pleasantly surprised about these styling tips below!

So I guess now you don’t have an excuse to not try out white jeans!

3. Utilize flared jeans to contour your silhouette

This tip is so underrated and ladies, please take this tip seriously – wear flared jeans to dress up your outfit!

We are so used to wearing tight jeans that we almost forget how classy and fabulous flare jeans can flatter our legs.

I am really glad that flared jeans are back in style in 2020 as it truly deserves more attention.

With the unique design, it contours our thigh area and makes our legs look longer visually.

Seriously, you literally look at least 5 inches taller with a pair of heels.

4. Avoid heavily distressed jeans to make your legs look slimmer

If you want to dress up for a date night and want to look posh, avoid heavily distressed jeans by all means.

A few patches are still acceptable but if that’s heavily distressed, it’s a big No-No. Distressed jeans are too casual and not really classy in nature so it will be hard to dress up.

Plus, those horizontal patches will exaggerate our legs and make them look thicker.

Tight jeans, wide-cut jeans, flared jeans…there are so many better options to replace distressed jeans.

5. Add a belt to polish your look

Adding a belt is always the easy trick that makes our outfit look smarter.

The belt is more than an accessory, it also reflects that you are paying attention to details and styling your outfit with a belt.

I usually avoid belts with a big designer logo as it looks like trying too hard.

For me, a dark thin leather belt is a perfect choice to dress up my jeans and help define my waist. I will always avoid a woven belt as this material is a bit too casual.

4. Opt for a Peplum Top to upgrade your outfit

Can we spend some time appreciating the beauty of the peplum top? They are the hidden gem that I wish I had known earlier.

With its unique design, a peplum top can hide my muffin top perfectly and help me achieve a more sleek look.

Plus, it just gives a sense of formalness and elegance to the outfit which I really love.

Another great alternative is a belt top, which looks even more professional and goes well, especially with tight jeans!

Despite the tops I’ve mentioned above, we should always avoid a round-neck top.

As a girl with chubby cheeks, a round neck top always makes my face look rounder and my neckline looks short, just not flattering…at all.

Instead, always choose the V-neck shirt to create a slimmer effect on your face and upper body!

5. Wear blazers or a longline cardigan to create a leaner frame

Finally, it’s a blazer and cardigan time!

This is such a no-brainer way to dress up our jeans, especially for plus-size ladies!

How to dress up jeans as a plus-size

Wearing fitted blazers and cardigans hides our hips and thighs area perfectly and creates an illusion of a longer slimmer silhouette.

When it comes to the length of the blazer, always look for a short blazer (approximately to the above hip area) so we can appear to have long legs.

On the opposite, a long blazer will make our body ratio look a bit weird, and this will appear to drag our upper body down.

Is that just me every time when I style my jeans with a blazer I can totally feel the girl boss vibes! Anyone?

6. Wear pointed flats and heels to elongate your legs

Time to change our sneakers to elegant flats and heels for a glamorous dress-up transformation!

Needless to say, heels look great on us as they make us look slimmer and taller instantly. If you want to level up the game, feel free to wear a similar color with your jeans and make your outfit look more united!

But please always avoid heels with thick stripes, as this will cut out our ankles and make our calves look thicker.

If you are not a heel person, no worries, pointed flats can be amazing too! With the V-shaped lining, it can expand our legs and create a slimming effect.

Again, avoid the round-shaped flats, they make our legs look shorter and thicker.

Last but not least, a loafer is a brilliant choice to dress up your jeans, just a timeless classic piece for women!

This is so random… BUT

  1. Your body is a masterpiece that carries you through life’s journey—honor it with the love and respect it deserves.
  2. Beauty has no single definition; you define what beauty means through your uniqueness and authenticity.
  3. Your worth extends infinitely beyond your appearance—your kindness, strength, and spirit are what truly shine.
  4. The space you occupy in this world is yours by right; never apologize for existing exactly as you are.
  5. Your body tells the story of your life—every mark, curve, and change is a chapter of resilience and growth.
  6. You deserve to speak to yourself with the same compassion and tenderness you would offer to someone you love.
  7. Nourishing your body and soul isn’t selfish—it’s a necessary act of self-respect and care.
  8. The parts of yourself you’ve been taught to hide may be exactly what makes you magnificently unique.
  9. Your body is not a project to be fixed—it is a vessel for experiencing the fullness of life’s joys.
  10. You are allowed to love yourself completely today, not when you reach some future version of yourself.

women body positive

7. Complete your look with classy accessories

If you want to look feminine and polished, of course, we have to complete our look with accessories!

Instead of wearing 5 bracelets for both arms, I do think simple, delicate accessories are more of an elegant choice.

A long-line earring is always my favorite as it helps draw people’s attention from my round face lining to the vertical earring lining and that can create a slimming effect.

For the necklace, again, V-line necklaces are just simply the best. I especially adore the Y-necklace as it kind of brings out lowkey elegance vibes.

As a reminder, again, please don’t wear chunky accessories on your neck.

I once wore a thick choker and I can guarantee you I looked suffocated the whole time, just an epic fail!

If black is too boring for you but white trousers aren’t your thing, brown pants are always a perfect classy choice!

As a composite color, brown goes well with different colors.

In the days when earth-tone outfits are basically everywhere, brown pants are regarded as one of the must-haves in the wardrobe!

When I first embrace this trend, I thought pairing brown pants is an easy task. But to my surprise, it takes me quite a long time to figure out how to look the best with brown pants!

So now, here are the 7 tips when for what to wear with brown pants, enjoy!

1. Wear reddish brown if you have a yellow or gold base skin tone

Before getting into the outfit that matches your brow pants, here’s a fundamental thing that we have to figure out and that’s what types of tone flatters your skin tone the best!

If you are trying brown tone-on-tone dressing and wondering why you look a bit dimmish, you may want to reconsider the shapes of brown!

As a girl with a yellow base tone, I wear khaki for a long period of time but until this year, I realize yellowish brown like khaki will make me look even more yellowish and dimmer.

It makes my khaki dress blend in with my skin “seamlessly” and that’s not flattering at all.

Instead, for the yellow or gold skin tone girls, we should always wear the reddish-brown.

This will make our skin look brighter and pop up easily.

My favorite reddish-brown is cinnamon-brown (#D2691E) and caramel, they are both warm shade of brown that is easy to style with any other neutral colors like cream and beige color!

Added to this, some ladies may wonder can they still wear the khaki trench coat? Well, yes!

A Khaki trench coat is fine as long as you don’t go extreme monochromic outfit.

For me, I usually wear a beige top and creamy tight jeans to balance the yellowish hue of the trench coat, turns out it works well!

2. Style orange-brown if you have a white cool skin tone

What to wear with brown pants?

If you have a white cool skin tone, orange-brown will look the best on you! If you don’t want to remember all the color palette names, there’s a stupid easy rule.

Brown is actually a darker shade of orange! I am not kidding here as brown is a composite color.

So if you saw a brown and thought it has more of a warm tone than a yellowish tone, then it probably is one of the orange-brown colors.

The warm tone of orange-brown, balances the cool tone out and makes you look more put together instantly!

3. Pair khaki if you have a black skin tone

If you have a black skin tone, you are lucky because you can wear the trendy color khaki!

Compared to dark brown, light brown like golden brown can be more flattering and makes your body curves look more defined.

Added to this, beige looks really classy on dark skin tones as well!

4. Wear a monochrome outfit for a high-fashion look

After figuring out the right shade of brown, we can finally discuss the outfit that goes well with your brown pants!

If you want to look taller and slimmer visually, wearing a monochrome outfit is a no-brainer.

Monochrome is all about utilizing different fabrics, if your pants are in cotton, you may choose a twill top and wear a satin jacket on top to make your outfit looks more versatile and rich with layering.

Monochrome is such an easy way to make you look instantly high fashion.

Plus, it’s always a good way to showcase your new bag and new accessories with such a plain canvas!

5. Wear off-shoulder and ruffles to spice up your outfit

As an earthy tone color, brown can look sophisticated and dense.

If you don’t think you can pull off one-tone dressing, wearing an outfit with some designs can always make the whole outfit more refreshing and feminine.

For me, I always wear my brown pants with a creamy off-shoulder top. The light earthy tone balances the stiffness of brown and makes the outfit looks less formal.

Added to this, if you have chubby cheeks like me, you have to wear off-shoulder! Showing the neckline, it makes your face appear to be longer and smaller.

Another idea is wearing ruffle tops. The ruffle layering creates a softer look and helps draw people’s attention from the brown pants to your upper body.

6. Pair a beige beret with brown pants for a classy style

A beige beret goes well with brown pants as both of them serve as a classic elegant fall staple.

As brown pants are a dense and dark color, wearing a lighter shade of beret can make your style looks more wintry and cute!

Besides brown, a Burgundy (dark red-purple) beret is another nice choice if you want a warmer tone.

7. Wear a scarf as a belt to style your brown pants

I hope this is a new idea for you!

Once I realized I can style a scarf belt with brown pants, I wear brown pants way more frequently.

Instead of buying different styles of brown pants, I can now change the style by only changing the scarves! How convenient is that?

Among all the colors, the creamy scarf looks the best and makes my brown pants look more one-of-a-kind.

I am still addicted to this styling and I wish more of you can try this out! With just a scarf and a pair of loafers, here’s how you look like a high-class lady with brown pants!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So here are the 7 tips when for what to wear with brown pants, let’s have a quick checklist!

  • Wear reddish brown if you have a yellow or gold base skin tone
  • Style orange-brown if you have a white cool skin tone
  • Pair khaki if you have a black skin tone
  • Wear a monochrome outfit for a high-fashion look
  • Wear off-shoulder and ruffles to spice up your outfit
  • Pair a beige beret with brown pants for a classy style
  • Wear a scarf as a belt to style your brown pants

I hope these tips give you some new insights to style your brown pants!

Who said brown is boring? It’s never about the color, it’s all about style!

Let’s be real here, we all want to wear joggers to work, aren’t we?

Somehow, I just don’t feel the most comfortable when I am wearing a tight pencil skirt and a pair of dress pants with my bloated belly after lunch.

While joggers can be too causal to work, they can look polished, chic, and put together as well with some proper styling!

jogger outfits for work

So ladies, here are the 6 tips when it comes to what to wear with joggers to work!

Time to dress your pants up!

Update: Make sure you go through all the looks as I have a cheatsheet for what perfume to wear in the workplace <3

1. Pick a structured shape for your joggers

To dress up joggers, choose fitted pairs that showcase your ankles and flatter your curves! 🔍

Size appropriately (visit a tailor if needed—worth every penny! 💰) and avoid baggy styles with excessive pockets.

The perfect jogger hugs your calves while staying comfortable at the hips, creating a refined silhouette that’s office-appropriate.

Your colleagues will appreciate the polished look!👩‍💼

2. Choose the formal and thick fabric like twill and silk

Closely linked with the first tip, fabric matters the vibes of the joggers and also affects the shape.

Here are some of the fabric suggestions that you should avoid and embrace.

Fabric to avoid:

A. Terrycloth

Yes I know they are comfy but they are just too soft to maintain a structured shape for your pants.

Plus, this fabric itself is too casual to wear at work.

B. Thin/ low quality cotton

Thick cotton is fine but if that’s a thin or low-quality cotton, it will again make the pants look too sloppy.

Especially when you wear light color jogger pants like white or creamy, I am pretty sure that will be a little bit see-through as well.

With cotton joggers, always take a look at the materials and look for at least 20% Polyester and nylon.

The heavier material can balance things out and dress up the look.

Fabric to embrace:

A. Silk

Can we talk about how fashionable yet classy silk joggers is?

Silk by nature is soft thin cotton that looks elegant and it just makes the jogger pants look less baggy.

Added to this, silk fabric is lustrous and that makes your pants look more dressed up without too much styling.

With a black V neck top and beige silk jogger pants, that is a truly smart casual outfit!

Silk jogger pants are my all-time favorite, it just makes me stand out from the crowd wearing cotton pants.

Not to mention it keeps me cool during those hot summer days!

Reminder: For these kind of drawstring jogger pants, it’s best to cover that drawstring area up with a dressy top to look put together.

A peplum top like this is always to perfect choice! <3

B.Twill

If silk is for summer then twill is for winter days!

For the cotton jogger pants, the shape will completely go after washing it a couple of times.

But with a thick fabric like twill, it keeps the pants structured and durable. Twill is always a decent choice for jogger pants.

C. Chino

Compare to the fabric like Khakis, chino is a bit dressier and this can make jogger pants looks more dressed up with a sophisticated vibe!

3. When in doubt, add a belt

Trust me, it just instantly dress up the look!

From my experience, you just can’t go wrong with a brown thin belt <3

4. Avoid big prints and high saturation color for your joggers

Skip bold prints (leopard, floral 🌺) and neon colors for work joggers—they’re just too distracting.

Instead, choose earth tones like beige, ivory, or lime green 🍃 for a professional look that blends seamlessly into your workplace.

5. Wear a blazer to dress up your joggers to work

Not only does this look chic and fashionable to combine two different styles of outfit as one, but this is also probably the easiest way for us to dress up our joggers.

The shape lining of our blazers can seamlessly balance the looseness of our legs and makes the outfit looks more like a smart casual.

You can always go monochrome and style your black pants with a black blazer!

Not only it is high fashion, but it also makes your legs appear longer.

As a petite girl, monochrome is the ultimate no-fail styling tip for me!

6. Wear pointed flats and heels to complete your smart casual look

Last but not least, change your sporty sneakers to a pointed flat to achieve your office look!

Instead of the round toe ballet flats, I do think pointed flats are a better choice as the V shape can lengthen your legs visually.

By picking the same color as your pants, the elongating effect can be even stronger.

I’ve tried styling my jogger jeans with round flats but that’s just not as flattering as pointed flats, it makes my legs look shorter!

Of course, if you want to look more of a girl boss, heels are your best friends!

Any kind of heels can work except the thick ankle strap heels.

The thick straps will cut out your ankles and make your legs looks slightly thicker!


And there’s the workplace friendly perfume and dress code cheat sheet- enjoy my loves!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So here are the 6 tips on what to wear with joggers to work! Let’s have a quick recap first:

  • Pick a structured shape for your joggers
  • Choose the formal and thick fabric like twill and silk
  • Avoid drawstring waist jogger pants and style it with a belt instead
  • Avoid big prints and high saturation color for your joggers
  • Wear a blazer to dress up your joggers to work
  • Wear pointed flats and heels to complete your smart casual look

Considering how many hours we go to work every day, we should always dress in comfort.

While it has been a stereotype that joggers are too casual for workwear, this is actually not the case at all!

With different styling and different fabrics, jogging pants can look dressy and polished as well.

As Vera WANG once said, “A woman is never sexier than when she is comfortable in her clothes”, so ladies, time to get sexy in our comfy joggers!

When it comes to the plum leggings, I immediately think of my mum.

I guess she can be one of the biggest fans of purple leggings.

With the darker and brownish shade of purple, it just adds a dash of elegance and softness to the leggings and balances out the casualness.

While we are so used to wearing leggings as daily wear, purple is such a foreign color to many of us when it comes to outfits.

But truly, plum leggings are way more versatile than you can think of!

So ladies, here are my 6 inspirations if you wonder what to wear with plum leggings!

Enjoy!

1. PAIR PLUM LEGGINGS WITH CASUAL WEAR

While black leggings are so truly easy to style, sometimes they just look predictable and boring if you wear them daily!

Plum leggings can be a really nice alternative to freshen up your style! with a darker shade of purple, it won’t make our legs appear to be thicker visually like the violet color so feel free to style it, ladies!

Plus, it just makes our leggings appear to be more dressed up as plum can always add a sense of elegance and femininity to the look.

Just like black leggings, they are truly versatile to pair.

For me, I just think grey and purple are a classic match for all time!

For the lazy Sunday, I will style my plum leggings with a grey cropped hoodie and a high bun for a casual yet chic look.

In the past, I just don’t believe colors can influence mood.

But now, I can truly tell you wearing plum leggings never fails to make me feel more refreshed and put together!

2. PAIR PLUM LEGGINGS FOR A MATCHY LOOK

If you want to look more dressed up in plum legging, matching it with a similar shade of purple can instantly make your outfit look more refined.

Trust me, whenever I do the color pairing, people always thought I am one of that refined lady who spent half an hour planning out my outfit.

While the reality is I am just quickly grabbing something in the same color tone and throwing it on my body! So yes, this tip just makes my life easier!

During the autumn time, I will always pair a similar tone of the scarf with plum leggings.

By that, my outfit can look sleek without too many different color palettes on my body.

That also makes the plum pops up in a harmonious way.

Of course, you don’t always need to pair it with a scarf, I saw many ladies pair the leggings with their bag or even headband and that looks chic and stylish too!

If you are reading this blog post till now, there’s one thing for sure…

You have good taste! <3 If you approve of some of these looks, please kindly pin or share some of these outfits so many tasteful fashion babes can come across this outfit inspo, thanks pretty! ❤️

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️

3. WEAR FAUX LEATHER PLUM LEGGINGS FOR A CHIC LOOK

Who said you have to wear black when it comes to faux leather leggings? Plum is such a refreshing choice here!

As a feminine and refined color, it just balances the coolness of the leather leggings and makes it easier to pull off!

Whether you style it with a white shirt or a biker jacket on top, the leather leggings can effortlessly elevate the outlook.

Some may suggest pairing it with animal prints shoes like leopard heels.

That is a perfect idea if you want to look edgy and stylish!

However, for me, I would prefer shoes with solids so the highlight can remain on the plum leather pants!

4. PAIR THE PLUM LEGGINGS WITH DARK-COLORED SHOES

If you are a tall girl, feel free to skip this tip. But if you are a petite girl like me, I hope you find this useful!

Actually, this tip is not only applicable to plum leggings but all sorts of pants. If you want your leg to appear to be longer and slimmer, don’t wear pants and shoes with big color contrast as that will just divide your leg into two separate parts.

Instead, pair your plum leggings with similar dark shades like brown and black so you can fully utilize the elongating visual effect!

5. PAIR PLUM LEGGINGS WITH BOOTS FOR A SUBTLE LOOK

While plum is a dark shade, if you are not getting used to wearing purple, that can still look a bit overwhelming.

But no worries, you can always wear different types of boots for a low-key look.

Not only it’s stylish to wear, but it can also tame down the hues. If you want a classy and sophisticated look, classic riding boots or Chelsea boots can be great choices!

For me, I love pairing the leggings with moto boots and faux leather biker jeans – who said plum only can look soft and gentle?

6. EMBRACE MONOCHROME FOR A HIGH-FASHION LOOK

Last but not least, of course, we have to talk about the stylish monochrome look! We all know with one main shade of color, we will visually look taller and slimmer.

However, here’s a reminder. If you want a subtle look, you may think twice about this pairing!

Even though plum is a darker shade of purple, with its richness, it’s still an attention-grabbing color.

However, if you want to try a slightly bold yet polished outlook, wearing tone-on-tone is a no-brainer. It’s such an ultra-urban look during the autumn and winter times.

With an elegant cowl neck top and a pair of faux leather leggings, it just screams classy!

But if you don’t want to wear the same shade of color from head to toe, try to layer your outfit with other tints of purple!

Some of my favorites are lavender, mauve, and dark red, it just gives an air of sophistication to the outfit!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So ladies, here are the 6 ways if you wonder what to wear with plum leggings! Let’s have a recap first!

  • Pair plum leggings with casual wear
  • Pair plum leggings for a matchy look
  • Wear faux leather plum legging for a chic look
  • Pair the plum leggings with dark color shoes
  • Pair plum leggings with boots for a subtle look
  • Embrace monochrome for a high fashion look

I hope these tips give you some ideas for pairing your plum leggings!

But again, this elegant shade of purple is truly versatile and the outfit combination can be endless!

As the saying goes “Be eccentric now. Don’t wait for old age to wear purple!” You will never regret wearing plum leggings out as you will just feel good about that!
