High waists have been sneaking into fashion for the past few seasons but it's this season (Spring/Summer 08) they have finally broken through with shops being full of high waisted trousers and skirts, thus making it a style that is literally impossible to ignore.
For the majority of people, high waists are actually more flattering than hip slung waists. They hold you in in all the right places and give you a smooth silhouette. This skirt by Acne Jeans is a bit more difficult to wear because of the bulky pockets. It has an elastic belted waist which will exaggerate your waist. It's a great casual skirt for daywear which provides an alternative to jeans for most of us. It's £100 from Browns online.
