4 Celebrity-Approved Pant Trends That Are Worth the Cold
As much as we love a great skirt or dress, winter weather doesn’t always make them the most appropriate choice, even with tights. Luckily, the pant offerings right now are good. Good enough, in fact, that Hollywood’s most stylish are getting in on the action. To help you live your most fashionable life this winter, we’ve narrowed down the four trends that stars are loving RN and where to score them for yourself. So scroll on and get ready to show everyone who really wears the pants.
High-Waist Plaid
If Jennifer Lopez does it, you can be damn sure it’s a thing. The style queen rocked a blue and black high-rise pair to perfection. Bonus: Plaid is a trend that’s sticking around for spring, so you’ll get your money’s worth out of this one.
Michelle Monaghan rocked the trend in a matching suit, adding red booties (and matching lip) for added oomph. We are here for it.
Zendaya’s style can be described in a word: fearless. The fashion chameleon took the retro thing to a new level in this pink/plaid combo.
Get the look:
1. Free People Here And There Trouser
2. Forever 21 High-Waist Plaid Pants ($28): Try a belted, cropped pair with sock boots now, and sandals later. Winning!
3. Dear Drew by Drew Barrymore Women’s Arthur Avenue High Waist Ruffle Trouser ($79-$98): Get that paper (bag waist)! And definitely get it in plaid.
Wide-leg
Spring 2018 is set to be the season of the wide-leg pant. Get a jump on the trend now, à la Nicole Richie, and you’ll look like a fashion insider.
Black-ish and Grown-ish star Shahidi slayed in a sporty version in vivid hues. Consider this the perfect way to cure the winter doldrums!
Blake Lively opted for a green leopard-print pair, and as per usual, she nailed it. With a fitted sweater, this is the ideal winter date night look. Ryan Reynolds not included (sorry).
Get the look:
4. & Other Stories Wide Leg Trousers ($125): Go for a Yara Shahidi-style bright and wait for the compliments to pour in. *Sings Lady in Red…*
5. Topshop Super High Waist Trousers ($125): Knock out two trends at once with a high-waisted voluminous pant. With boots in the cold and airy heels when temperatures warm up, you can rock these all year round.
6. Express Mid Rise Stripe Wide Leg Pant ($70): Sleek stripes and an elastic waist? Sign us up.

9. H&M Faux Leather Pants ($35): Another way to upgrade from standard black? Opt for a navy style that’s unexpected but just as versatile.
