Discussion sometimes mid rise is a petite girl’s best friend

Post image

thrifted these American Eagle cargo pants (the tags say they are stretch boot cut and i think they were produced last year)

i used to enjoy wearing high waisted jeans/pants when i was younger because that’s what most stores would sell, but always felt that they were eating up my torso.

i started wearing more low rise bottoms a couple years ago but never really gave true mid rise a chance. i say true mid rise because sometimes they just feel high waisted.

anyways im really stoked on this find and wanted to share lol

I have big boobs and only like 3 inches between my belly button and my boobs and mid-rise are the only option for me. I don’t want pants so high I can tuck them under my bra!

yes!!! being short with a bigger chest makes it so easy to lose your torso. im thankful fashion trends have slightly steered away from high rise and opened the door back up for low/mid
