All your friends have them, you see them on your favorite influencers on Instagram and when you go to Zara you see them cute and ideal on the hanger but when you try them on: horror! Yes, you are also one of those who think that slouchy are not for you , but it is not like that at all. Fashion pants are more democratic than they appear , and you just have to know how to put them on to get addicted to them. Little word.
We can tell nothing new about the slouchy, we are already more than familiar with this term that came into our lives last summer to stay in the fall and they will do the same in the winter of 2020 . Wide, 'rolled up' above the ankle, high-waisted and baggy, the slouchy pants have a casual air but go far beyond the relaxed looks of the day to day. Their tremendous versatility makes them a basic in our wardrobe and a real life saver, so you shouldn't throw in the towel if you haven't yet become familiar with them. You just need to take into account these three fashion keys to make you feel great.

Always above the ankle
As they are baggy, that is to say with volume, it is essential that they remain above the ankle, whether it has elastic or if you roll them up with a few turns, so that they stylize the silhouette. This, plus the fact that they are high-waisted, will make you feel much more favored. Regarding footwear: ALL. From 'sneakers' to ankle boots or pumps with heels . The slouchy is a basic with a thousand lives and that is easily reinvented with each combination of garments , from the simplest to the most sophisticated.

Brand waist
The trick so that the slouchy are allies and not enemies is in being able to shape the body and not see yourself 'wrapped' in clothes. How? Marking waist. With the slouchy it is easy since being high-waisted you can use a belt that is now so fashionable and leave it visible with top garments inside.
If, for example, it is a T-shirt or an oversized sweater, insert it partially at the waist or put on a top or a tighter sweater with another garment on top such as a blazer or a chubby cardigan.

Compensates for volume
A trick of the most fashion-savvy that we have copied in our desire to make your life easier and more stylish. If you have wide hips and you think that the slouchy makes you too much volume at the hips, it is as simple as putting a blouse with volume on the sleeves, for example these lantern or puffed ones that are worn so much. This way the silhouette will be visually thinner in the central part and, therefore, you will look more stylized.
Extra trick!
If you love how the slouchy fit in the front but hate how wide it is at the back, don't hesitate to wear jackets, coats or long cardigans. Goodbye problem, hello fashion pants!
