If you find pants comfy, these wide leg pants will make you want to wear them forever. We recommend tucking in your top when wearing wide leg pants so that it gives your body a slimmer silhouette. Pair with sneakers or heels according to your office's dress code and you will be good to go!

#2 Straight cut pants

When wearing straight cut pants, remember to tuck in your top and tighten it around your waist with a belt. The belt acts as an accessory to spruce up your outfit but also helps to give you the illusion of a slimmer figure. Fold the ends of your pants so that your ankles are showing for a fashionable look.

#3 Tapered pants

For the ultimate girl boss look, go for tapered pants paired with heels! You can even pair it with a blazer of the same colour to take it up a notch. Wear a work-appropriate collared shirt if you don't fancy blazers.

#4 High waisted jeans

If your workplace is chill about their employees wearing jeans to work, lucky you! We recommend wearing a pair of high waisted jeans as it will give you the illusion of longer legs. To make it work for meetings and the office environment, pair it with a blazer but fold the sleeves up for a more casual look!

#5 Flared pants

Pants that flare out below your knees are back in trend and is a good option for those who prefer a feminine style when it comes to dressing. Flared pants will also hug your hips and show off your curves! Pair with a loose fitting blouse for better proportion.
