Flattering trousers? They're an enigma. There's a reason we're all so obsessed with The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, after all. That's why I audibly gasped when I slipped on these Wide-Leg High-Waisted Crop Pants ($37, originally $50). I got a preview of the latest POPSUGAR at Kohl's collection drop, and this design immediately called my name.
The flattering cut and bold red hue made these pants a standout piece, so I called upon two of my fellow editors to try them on as well. Spoiler alert: they love them too. We broke down exactly why this piece is our current favorite (with photos for proof, of course). They come in sizes 0-18, so a wide variety of body types can give these trousers a try. Read on to see how they look on all of us, then consider a pair for yourself.
An Excellent Fit
"When it comes to clothes, color and wide-leg pants are two of my favorite things, so it was love at first sight with these. One, they look so much more expensive than they are. Two, they fit perfectly (and I typically have a very hard time finding pants that fit in both the waist and legs). And three, the tomato red and contrast stitching make exactly the statement I want with my wardrobe. On a more casual day, I'd probably style them with a white tee and red accents, but for Valentine's Day — or any day, let's be honest — they look so cute with this slouchy striped sweater." — Carrie Carrollo, assistant beauty editor, Native, and content strategist

The Perfect High-Rise Cut
"I've been looking for a pair of comfortable, swingy jeans that don't lose their shape probably my entire life. Or, at least since I graduated from my mermaid tail to legs (just kidding). In all seriousness, these feel butter soft, and they're the perfect length for showing off a great bootie. The high-rise allows me to tuck in a great knit and accentuate my waistline, and the shade isn't too in-your-face. This red has a lighter tone, making it the perfect pairing for pastels, like this lavender sweater." — Sarah Wasilak, editor, Fashion

Insanely Soft Material
"Finding a pair of wide-leg pants that don't make my legs look stumpy is no easy feat. This pair is actually incredibly slimming, and the soft material makes me forget I'm even wearing pants instead of pajamas. I appreciate a button-up design, because let's be real, I'm always worried about my fly falling down. I love pairing these pants with my matching red slides, but I'll definitely style them with white sneakers as well." — Macy Cate Williams, editor, Shop
