1. Tank Top
Top Wide leg pants are generally easier to pair with high-waist items, like a fitted tank top in several colors. Wear your best tank top over your wide-leg pants. This will keep your clothing from getting as wrinkled and you will still achieve a good look for the day.
2. Crop Top
Crop tops are one of the most comfortable options because they keep your body covered while still showing off a lot of skin. You can also wear a contrasting top made of different materials to help make your fashion look even more appealing.
3. Corset Top
A corset top is a great option for any girl that wants to get a pretty and alluring look. You can also soften the image by wearing a necklace. You can simply pair it with some wide-leg pants to create a unique going-out outfit.
4. T-shirt
If you’ve never worn wide-leg pants before, don’t try to wear them with shirts that are too small. You’ll always look like you’re wearing a costume! Try pairing them up with a T-shirt that is cut so that it fits in just the right places and accentuates your body. Choose white and pair it with a dark-colored top for the ultimate effect.
5. Tie-front Shirt
For a more classy look, consider sporting a tie-front shirt over your favorite pair of wide-leg pants. The tie-front top is a popular piece for the summer and the wide-leg pant combination works perfectly with this shirt. Wear a blue or white top with black or red bottoms and you’ll be looking like a star in no time!
7. Turtleneck Sweater
The turtleneck sweater is great for the fall and winter because it goes with every type of attire. Pair it up with a pair of wide-leg pants, a blazer, or a vest, then add some color accents with colorful accessories.
8. Chunky Knit Sweater (or Sweater-vest)
The chunky knit sweater is something that’s great for wearing in the winter because it covers up everything and still keeps you warm. Pair it with a pair of wide-leg pants and a nice top for the ultimate combination for any season. Add some color with your accessories to make them look even better!
9. Short-sleeved Shirts
This style is great for summer because it’s so comfortable and easy to wear. Wear a plain top with your pair of wide-leg pants and you’ll be ready for any event. Add some colorful accessories and you’ll be looking great on any day!
The button-down shirt is something that can go with almost everything, especially when you pair it up with your pair of wide-leg pants. The combination works perfectly for any occasion and is a timeless style that never goes out of fashion!
11. Blouse
The blouse is a great top to wear with your wide-leg pants because it’s ideal for the summer. Pair it with a nice pair of wedges or flats and you’ll look like you’re ready to go!
12. Bomber Jacket
The bomber jacket is something that’s great for almost any occasion and it’s so versatile. It always looks good, especially when you pair it with your pair of wide leg pants. Add whatever color accessories you want and you’ll be looking great!
13. Leather Jacket
We all need a pair of leather jackets and wide-leg pants! The leather jacket is from Topman and the wide-leg pants are from Joe’s of Hollywood. This look is casual and goes great with any color. Wear them to school with a T-shirt, or for work to dress up, depending on your preference.
14. Denim Jacket
If you have a denim jacket, choose wide-leg pants to go with it. These two styles go amazingly together and you can try different looks by pairing a denim jacket with either a T-shirt or other tops like a tank. Pair up different colored jeans with the jacket for maximum effect.
15. Blazers
Add some sophistication to your outfit by throwing on a blazer! Wearing a blazer over wide leg pants is casual enough for going out but can also be dressy if you wear it with an amazing bag or at fancier restaurants and venues.
16. Mules
This is a great style for older women that want to wear pants, but still, look chic. Opt for a pair of sling-back mules to make the pant leg look longer and leaner. Mules are an excellent choice because they’re comfortable, yet stylish and match well with a variety of looks.
17. Pointed-toe Shoes
This is a great style for anyone who wants to wear more comfortable shoes that still look chic and feminine. Try lace-up sandals or ballerina flats with this outfit. Opt for colors that complement the pants and you’ll always look classy and stylish.
18. One-strap Sandals
If you’re an older woman who wants to wear wide-leg pants but doesn’t want to look like a high school girl, then this is the style for you. Pair up one strap mules with a pair of pointed-toe sandals and boots. This outfit will make you look classy and mature while still getting the effect of wearing wide-leg pants.
19. Loafers
This is a great style for women in their early 20s who want to wear more classic and stylish outfits. Go for loafers and keep the color palette simple with solid colors, then wear them with a pair of wide leg pants and you’ll always look like you just stepped out of the hall at school.
20. Sneakers
You’ve seen the look in fashion magazines, but you probably didn’t know how to make it your own. It’s very easy! Just take a pair of sneakers and slip them under your wide leg pants. This looks best when the pants are rolled up just below the ankles.
21. Bucket Hat
Bucket hat is a great style if you want to make sure that your wide-leg pants are going to look feminine and stylish instead of frumpy and bulky. Go for a bucket hat that has ribbons or lace on them. This will lend you an effect of looking taller and leaner, while still giving the same effect in wearing wide-leg pants.
22. White Tank Top + Oversized Shirt + Sneakers
This is a great look for anyone that wants to wear wide-leg pants but doesn’t want to appear too young. Stack your tank top with an oversized shirt and sneakers. The effect you get is that of someone who’s at the beach on vacation, instead of in an evening club.
23. Sweater and Shirt Underneath
If you’re looking for a preppy look without committing to the skirt and top combo, try pairing up your wide-leg pants with a sweater and undershirt. The wide-leg pant catches the eye, but doesn’t take over!
