This smoothing pant comes in our premium Ponte fabric with targeted compression built in, powered by SPANX Core Sure Tech™. With comfortable 4-way stretch and a high rise waist, this wide leg pant will have you feeling smooth from tummy to hip, and oh-so-comfortable throughout the wide leg. No zippers, no buttons, and no pockets (so no bulk!) at the hips—all for the ultimate smoothing effect.

Don’t buy trends you don’t really like
While this may sound obvious, it can be easy to get sucked into the trends everyone is wearing. But never buy something just because it’s in fashion. “Regardless of what’s trending at the moment, try to stay true to yourself,” says Natalie Halcro, fashion influencer and TV personality. “Know what you look good in and what you like, and stick to that.” Shopping smarter is one of those fashion tips that will help you dress younger. Whether that’s on-trend colors, silhouettes or shoes, if it doesn’t fit your personal style, don’t buy it. It’ll not only allow you to save money for longer-lasting pieces, it’ll ensure you will actually wear what’s in your closet.

Adopt the four-or-more rule
When it comes to outfit building, one of the most important style tips personal stylist Laurie Brucker lives by is the four-or-more rule. This four-part strategy says that an outfit consists of four standout pieces. In Brucker’s case: a blouse, a skirt, a jacket and a necklace. A blouse and skirt alone, she says, won’t do it. “Any combination of four or more works.”
