Well, you have to dress for your figure. Me, I can make fitted jeans sing, but I wear stacked heels and I've got legs for days, and even in my forties still can just about link both heels behind my head. But I can't wear cargo shorts to save my life! It's all about figuring what works for you and how to make the most of it, you know?
I'm very pleased that flares and high(er)-rise pants are coming back, kinda. With worse materials, unfortunately. Now if only we can have colors that aren't some variation of gray or blue...
