20 Trendy Ways to Style Your Wide-Leg Pants

Don't hesitate to add plenty of flair to this '90s grunge moment. Patchwork wide-leg pants with layered belts and plenty of kitschy jewelry bring the look an undeniable element of fun.

Yes, this outfit works even in the cooler months, as long as you're headed out and not to the office. Achieve ultimate style sophistication when your wide-leg pants are part of a suit set. A croc-effect clutch and close-toed mules are the ideal accessories, balancing out a skin-baring moment.

Pooling wide-leg pants are nicely balanced out with a fitted, skin-baring top. But you can play up their preppy appeal with a cardigan in a matching color hung over your shoulders.

Opt for a loose-fit khaki pair of wide-leg pants, belted with a sleek black belt to add polish. Swing a shoulder bag over your makeshift tube top to add a little '90s-inspired appeal.

Add an unconventional twist when you style your oversize button-down slightly off the shoulder. This trick creates a skin-baring moment that's a striking contrast with your wide leg pants.

For a more casual '90s look that's completed with denim cargos, tuck a fitted sweater into your wide-leg pants. Finish with a chunky platform sneaker that offers a bit of height.

On paper, it might sound like one billowy piece layered over another. But wearing a loose-fit button-down or cardigan undone over your wide-leg pants creates a free-flowing effect and looks effortless with luxe accessories added on, such as a leather mini purse or a statement shoe.

The key here is to find a button-down that's shorter in length and comes in a lightweight fabric. This way, you can easily secure the hem beneath the waistband of your wide-leg pants and show them off from top to bottom. To employ a sporty twist, style the look with sneakers.

Tucking a ribbed cardigan into your tailored wide-leg pants is the perfect trick to employ for office wear when you've run out of ideas. Swap out the slides for slick pumps or slingbacks in the fall and ankle booties in the winter.

Select statement wide-leg pants that pool to the ground and coordinate with the classics in more neutral tones. For instance, a standard blue button-down and autumnal-toned statement coat won't take away from your slacks.

Remix wide-leg cropped pants with a sporty vibe via a bomber jacket. For a touch of prep, go with a pair of classic leather loafers.

Add interest to your classic white wide-leg pants with a boldly printed track zip-up. Complete the relaxed ensemble with sneakers and black sunglasses.

Reinvent your wide-leg pants with a layered button-down and T-shirt. Add a textured bag and comfortable flats for a fashion-forward tomboy effect.

The effect when you add a distressed denim jacket is classic '90s girl, with a subtle touch of grunge. That's especially true when layered over a fitted black turtleneck.

In a vertical stripe pattern, retro wide-leg pants like these become the whole outfit. Throw on leather stiletto boots to complement the material of a fringed, cropped biker jacket. All-black accessories round out this vibrant outfit.

Simply add sneakers and a cool baseball cap to a pantsuit set and the resulting look will speak to your sporty style. A simple white crop top is all you need to get started.

Define your waist and mix up proportions with a longer top belted right over your wide-leg pants. If your pieces come in simpler tones, feel free to interwork a more dramatic pouch or waistbag.

To show off the shape of your cowboy boots, search for wide leg pants with slits at the side, and keep things fitted and polished up top. Of course, you should feel free to play with statement jewelry and outerwear details that help cater to the Western theme.
