The term "paperbag waist" sounds like an insult akin to "muffin top." But it's DESCRIPTIVE, it tells you exactly what it looks like, which is a paper bag cinched around your waist with some sort of belt or tie. Today I'm covering paperbag bottoms of all sorts; pants, skirts, and shorts.
This trend was huge last spring/summer, and I was all about it. I got a pair of black paperbag pants at H&M and they quickly became a wardrobe staple for me. In fact, I'm wearing some to work today!
While I think this trend can be rocked year round, it's best styled in the warmer months due to the breezy cut. Something that's crucial to the versatility of a piece is the ability to dress it up or down, which is easily achieved with paperbag-style bottoms. They can be smart with a blazer and heels, or casual with a panama hat and sandals.

If you haven't already, I highly recommend in investing in a paperbag waist piece of some sort. I prefer the pants because they provide the most versatility for my lifestyle, but I love all of the styles! They're all so versatile and great for the warmer months ahead. Plus, they're topped with a bow; no one can argue with that.
