YOU ASKED, STYLE SPY ANSWERED: HIGH-WAISTED JEANS

IN RESPONSE TO LAST WEEK'S POST, "FOUND!  THE BEST HIGH-WAISTED JEANS," KALAMARI ASKED:

Can/should plus sized women wear high waisted jeans?  If so, does anyone make them?

STYLE SPY SAYS:

Absolutely.  High-waisted jeans can create a long, lean look for all.  Plus-sized women should look for styles with full, fluid legs in darker shades of blue, gray or black.  Avoid skinny, pegged ankles and light-colored denim.  Make sure the hem covers the shoe and is almost even with the floor.  I checked in with stylist Alana Kelen for some where-to-buy advice, and she immediately suggested H&M.
