HOW TO DRESS DOWN A SUIT, PART 2

I’M WEARING  >>  Houndstooth Pants: ZARA  |  T-shirt: Brandy Melville |  Blazer: Purificacion Garcia  |  Bag: JW Anderson

Here is another great example of how to dress down a suit, in this case, a houndstooth suit. This isn’t a match per se, since the pants and blazer are from completely different brands, but I still wanted to wear them together. I am not sure if you are with me on this one, but I have been 100% more inclined to wear high waisted pants in the past couple of years.
Those days when I used to wear low rise jeans and had to pull them up every 10 steps, seem so far behind now. I used to find it so annoying!!! In fact, I did a small closet clean-out last weekend and all those low rise pants ended up in the “go” pile. These pants are so so so cool, I will give the fabric a little credit, but there are a couple of elements that I love about them; The style, the high rise, the buttons, the front slits, plus they make butts look really good, so they are winners in my opinion!

  1. Ah Yes! No more embarrassing skinny jean pull ups whilst checking to see no one is looking around!
    I absolutely love this look. It’s an amalgamation of classic print, red-hot trend and casual!

    Thanks for sharing! You always look super gorgeous!

  2. Oh yeah, so with you on the fact that low rise jeans are so 2000 and I hope they never come back in style. High waisted pants not only make you look more shaped and sexy, but they are much more easy to handle hehe.

  3. I love your idea, suits can come off as too stiff, but there’s always a way to play with them. And your pants are gorgeous, love the print and high waist.
