My grandma told me a loooong time ago that pleated pants aren’t anybody’s friend, and I still follow that advice.
Truly SO hard to make this one look "effortless"... BUT the best part of trends is only following the ones that truly excite you! Thanks for watching, Bev! xo
Yes, ma’am. I agree with your grandma!
I was so glad these pants went out of style after their popularity in the 80's. Being pear shaped, it was always a challenge styling these without accentuating my lower half. Now that they're back, I'm not touching them!
Haha! I get it, Rose! You should only pick up the trends that truly speak to you. Sit this one out! Thanks for watching. xo
Right there with you. Having a very small upper body and waist, but bigger thighs and bum this style is definitely a big NO for me.
Same!!
I loved them but had 20 kg less then.
I’m very thin and I would never wear them either! To me, they are just not flattering on the body, no matter your weight or shape. They make the hips look huge! Who wants bigger hips than we’ve already got!
I love the IDEA of pleated trousers. Thanks for getting real about what it takes to pull these off. You looked fantastic with the oversized blazer as well.
Thank you for working so hard on ways to make these trousers look great🙏Having said that,being 4'11" personally, it's a hard pass for me on these!😀I am using lots of tips from videos you have done in the past and they have made a great difference already.
Totally get it, Carmelo! Thanks so much for your sweet comment. SO glad you're enjoying my videos! xo
Abercrombie has great wide leg pleated pants! They also have regular, short and tall lengths. I have some from a couple years ago with elastic at the back. Soo comfy, but cute! They seem really popular and go out of stock a lot, but they restock all the time. I totally agree that dressing them down is key!
Thanks so much for sharing your own favorite, Jess!! xo
Thanks, I’ll definitely check these ot
I thought it was just me who had trouble styling these 🙃😩 thank you for sharing your troubles as a professional stylist! I got a linen/cotton pair from Gap that seems to work, but I had to size up because the waist was too tight. Also, thanks for sharing Lydia Tomlinson’s video! She’s my other favorite and does a good job styling the effortlessly chic style.
Definitely not just you! This was a tough one for sure. Thanks so much for watching! xo
Everything looks good on Lydia. She’s young, tall, thin, and perfectly fit. I watch Erin because she gives me hope that clothes *might* look good on me at my height and my age. And understands that I might not want to show my cellulite and bat wings. Watching Lydia used to depress me! lol I’m so glad I found Erin to watch instead ❤️
Same here!!
And she loves this type of pants and looks fabulous in them.
I wore these pants in the Eighties and I'm five foot two. I bought the ones with the Zip in the back which is more forgiving especially if there's a bit of elastic in the back. I wore heels or low platforms with them.
A bodysuit shirt is great underneath to get the smooth outline.
It’s a hard pass for me! 50 yrs old with a super short torso (think head on a waist) so pleats are a NO. Was thrilled when they went away and can’t wait for them to leave again 😂
I totally get it! As always, you should only follow the trends that speak to you...sit the others out! Thanks so much for watching! xo
Great comment! 😂
Head on waist! Yes! I have about 2 finger-width between my hip bones and the bottom my rib cage. So frustrating, and of course, I’m now pear shaped.
🤣
It goes to show how effective you are with your styling because I vowed I would NEVER wear pleated trousers again. I wore them during the 90's and I never felt super confident in them and I would cringe whenever I look at old photos LOL. Well, I might give it another go with your suggestions. Thanks so much for putting in the time, effort and sweat, Erin, to help your adoring audience!!!
SO glad that I can help encourage you to try this one out! Even though it was SO tough, I did like these outfits in the end. Thanks so much for watching, Annie! xo
Thank you SO MUCH for doing this, Erin!! I love that you keep it honest and address all the real fit issues that people go through. I am excited about trying these, but it's almost like it takes some studying to get it right! I can imagine myself in the blazer/ pants combo standing permanently with my hands in my pockets so everyone can see I have a waist!🤣🤣 Maybe we all need to watch Annie Hall again to see how the experts did it back in the day! 🙃 Keep up the great work; YOU ROCK!
Much more work required that I had anticipated! You're right...that might help us know how to wear them right! Haha! Thanks so much for watching, Penelope. xo
Thanks Erin! I’m petite like you and don’t work in an office. I love the look but absolutely don’t have time for the hassle of this.
Totally get it! I was surprised by just how tough this one was...anything but easy and effortless! Thanks for watching, Rachel! xo
Omg I absolutely love the pleated trousers! H&M has a great selection of a kinds of different cuts. Next trick for me is keep it tight on top and always tuck in!
So glad this one was helpful for you! Thanks for watching, J'Nelle! xo
Yes! Wear what you like and what feels good! I love the oversized outfit with that gorgeous blazer!!! Sure, the pleats may enhance my size 14 tummy, but who cares? Model-like perfection is absurdly unattainable, so why bother trying to perpetuate it?! . If I like it I’ll wear it. If it’s tailored, neat, clean and reminiscent of my youth, even more fun!!! Love it!
You're right, Erica! Thanks so much for watching! xo
I LOVE your honesty! These tips will help me style paper bag shorts. ¡Gracias!
I'm so glad this was helpful for you! You're right, these tips can definitely apply to your shorts! Thanks for watching, Delia. xo
@@BusbeeStyle ❤️
I appreciate what you & your team put in to making the pleated pant look accessible 🧡 I adore a wide leg, a paper bag waist pant. The pleated pant look isn't a high fashion priority. But you found your "effortless look" 🤗
Thanks so much for your support, Susan! This was almost a fail...but really do like what we came up with in the end! Thanks for watching! xo
LOVE this Erin!!! I purchased some trousers from Ashley Stewart in black, navy and white. I had three of them tailored into shorts to wear as a short suit and I purchased these for trousers. I highly recommend these if you are petite and curvy. The pleated, belt loop details are elasticized and they don't look like it. Definitely will skim over the tummy and define the waist. They also have tall, regular leg lengths. Thanks Erin for sharing your styling tips!!! 👑💯💜💐🌞
Love it! SO glad this was helpful for you! Thanks for watching!! xo
Erin linked several pairs of pants. Which pair did you find that works best for petite and curvy gals?
@@BusbeeStyle 👑💯💜🐝💐🐝🐝🐝🐝
Love the bonus look - go out and rock it!
To be the Best version of yourself..Just enjoy and be Happy..Erin , this Video is so on point..am here for more😊👍
Love the last two looks- the short cropped blazer and the oversized blazer. Great video!
I agree with the tee and sneaker combo, very casual cool!
You look amazing in the oversized blazer. 😍 Very good video. I went through all the same steps two months ago. I get a lot of compliments wearing these trousers. They fit and suit me very well because I have no tummy and no butt, but for sure other problems. I love them. ❤ Erin, you are gorgeous.
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed this one! xo
Love your candidness!!
❤️❤️❤️Erin, you look amazing with anything you wear! 😁👌🏻💕🌺
Thank you for being so real! I love the outfits you came up with!
You are so welcome! SO glad you enjoyed this one, Kerri! xo
Love your honesty in this vid, Erin! I can’t bring myself to do the oversized jacket as well but thanks for the great tips about how to style these trousers!
Always so important to wear the things you love and feel confident in! Thanks for watching, Emma! xo
Thank you for the tips, Erin!
The last look was my favorite! Rock it lady.
I love how your style makes us feel
And you always keep it real! 💕X
Thanks so much, Karen! SO glad you are a part of this AMAZING community! xo
The black top and beige trousers is my go to outfit ❤️ Thank you for the tips 😘 I got this pleated beige trousers earlier cuffed at the ankle so work extremely well with my petite shape 😍
Thanks so much for watching, Mona! xo
You're great! ¡Muchas gracias Erin!
As a petite pear shaped woman who was in her 20’s in the 80’s when dress pants for women were modeled after men’s (men’s dress pants always were pleated at that time), I was thrilled when they finally went out of style! So, this is a hard no for me! Give me a more fitted silhouette every time. But you rocked them!
I totally get it, Linda! Thanks for watching even though you aren't trying this particular trend out. So important to only wear the things that excite you! xo
I am similar in age and I HATED most fashion at the time. All that oversize exaggerated stuff just looked awful on me. I don't think I can ever go back. 😂
To this day I absolutely cannot tolerate any kind of shoulder pads. I've even risked ruin by cutting into the interior lining of garments just to remove them 🤗
I’m a rectangular shape with slight tummy pooch. Definitely not bothering with these!! Ty for your honesty. 😘
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching, Elaine! xo
As always, great advice. I love ur videos, thank you for your honest & to the point comments on fashion. Excellent input for what works & what to avoid when shopping.
I'm SO glad this was helpful, Rose! Thanks for watching! xo
For the record.. You look AMAZING in anything!!!!!!!
Even if I'm not sure I'd wear this style of trousers but I did like them with the cropped jacket...nice!
Hi Erin 😊😊😊😊 Despite the fact that it was difficult for you, you showed us excellent combinations for one more time!!!!! Thank you for this huge try 💕💕💕💕💕 Plated pants are really good for summer and I love them 🌼🌺🍄 I wear them almost daily and what you showed us is what to notice in order to match them 🌼 . I read the same rules in fashion magazines some years ago so it's not difficult to style them. You are awesome ♥️💛💚💜 keep on❣️❣️❣️❣️ kisses from Greece 💙💜💚💛
Love it! Thanks so much for sharing your own experience with the pleated pants, Paulina! Sounds like it's part of your style uniform! xo
@@BusbeeStyle I think that every item has the right way to wear it🌺🌷🌹💐 You have showed us so many many things all these years 😁😁
Awesome as usual. Thanks for all your hard prep work 🤗
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching, Tricia! xo
Thank you so much for this video. I was soooo excited to get a pair of pleated trousers, but from the first try-on I could tell that they were going to be a challenge. I am determined to make it work!
“ let’s do this”! You are always a breath of fresh air. Thanks for another great video.
You are so sweet, Vera! Thanks SO much for your support! xo
I would love to give these a try! I'm loving the combo with the cropped jacket; I happen to have a cropped blazer that would be perfect to create a similar look.
You are so right, there is nothing effortless about them. But they are so confortable especially for summer that l have bought 2 pairs and your tips are great.
Exactly right!! Thanks for watching, Georgiana! xo
The oversized blazer outfit looked great on you! Thanks for sharing these helpful styling tips. I like Everlane’s drapey wide leg pants, but they might be too long for petite girls. The “short” length is the perfect length for wearing with sneakers and I’m ~5’6”
I’m so excited that these pants are back in!!! You’re sooo right…if you can nail the look, it is awesome! Thanks for the tips! I hope I can find that Frame black top!😃🛍
Yay! So glad these ideas are helpful for you, Barbara! xo
Erin I love the tank/ pant combo and the oversized blazer! You look great in all, but these were my favorites.
Thanks so much, Nancy! So glad you enjoyed this one! xo
Great video, thanks! I’m a 5’0 ft pear shaped petite with lumps and bumps and found the “Effortless” pants and shorts from Aritzia worked well for me. They come in short, regular and tall, have understated pleating which looks less dumpy, and they hang beautifully.
Thanks for sharing, Jamie!! xo
Big fan of all these looks, thanks for featuring. Favourite Daughter is the brand of pleated pants I like, and cut for a bit of a curvier gal. I believe they now offer a petite version as well.
Ooo cropped blazer! good one
Thank you for this video. I loved these pants in the 80’s and bought a pair of beige ones recently. I have felt limited in what I could wear with them as I too, am petite at 5’2. I love wearing them with a white body skimming blouse with the half tuck or my black and white striped T-shirt and platform white sneakers. Now, you have given me more options and I will try the cropped blazer. I was also thinking of a bodysuit but it’s hard to find them with a full bottom ( I don’t like the thong style). You look amazing in all of the outfits and I continue to learn from you every week. 😃💕
Thanks so much for watching, Trena! SO glad this was helpful for you!! xo
I’m 5’ tall and a size 12. I just love the pleated pants look. I found some paper bag tailored pleated trousers at Target that I didn’t have to Alter. I get so many compliments when I wear them. The trick I found is to wear a long cardigan that’s the same color as the pants. With a very fitted top, tucked, just as you mentioned. And it looks amazing. Otherwise I look like a cute round potato 😬🤣🤣🤣
Love your content!!!
Love that you have found the one that works best for YOU! Thanks for sharing! xo
I have a pair of pleated pants that I really like because instead of wide leg being loose; mine have an elastic cuff on bottom which is more flattering on my 5 ft petite frame. I wear mine usually with a t shirt and casual flat ankle boots or sneakers. Liked your info too. Thanks for all your effort you put into this.
Great way to adjust the style to fit your own body! Thanks so much for watching! I'm so glad you enjoyed this one. xo
Dude! That Blazer outfit rocks!
I loved this video - thanks! I am petite too and just got some pleated pants so it is helpful. I liked the blazer options - the fitted scoop tank made it femine and fun without being overwhelmed by fabric.
I styled my pleats with an off the shoulder half tucked drapey blouse and some platform sandals and enjoyed how effortly chic it felt (though the look did definitely involve effort!).
SO glad this was helpful for you, Allison! Thanks for watching! xo
Love my pair of baggy Chinos from Everlane. Made of Tencel they are super soft and comfy. Roll the cuff for a really casual vibe.
Those sound just lovely! Thanks for watching, Lori! xo
This was so helpful,thank you so much! I love the way you reiterate what you have said,a great teaching technique.
You are SO welcome, Vivienne! So glad this was helpful for you. xo
All of the option you styled with pleated pants looks beautiful fresh and very modern and youthful cool for any age. Just grate, loved it.
So glad you enjoyed this one! Thanks for watching! xo
Tried them already! Love them ❤️
Yay! Sounds like you've got this style nailed! xo
Hi ! Erin you are hilarious….just love it thanks so much!!!!!
I think this is one trend I will pass on! Pleated pants are too frumpy and expand the waist line! I love you in flare and straight leg pants better, but u always look great!! As always, great style ideas Erin!!
This one was TOUGH! Had to show you all how hard it really can be...even though Pinterest makes it look effortless! Thanks for watching, Bonnie! xo
Love your channel! The holy grail pair of pleated pants are mens pleated trouser! Best natural fabrics, better made and perfect fit!
Thanks for sharing, Hilda! xo
I understand your struggle, I don’t need or want the pleated pants in my life 😆 I have worn these many years ago and I do not miss that look at all.
I totally get it! Only wear the things you love, Alicia! Thanks for watching! xo
Love your energy ❤️
Thanks so much for your support, Anna!! xo
Wide leg trousers are the best ❤️ so happy they back in style, as I love wearing fitted tops and with trousers like that it looks so good. I am so over skinny pants.
I'm so glad this was helpful for you! xo
Hi Erin, So appreciate your Guides to help us in our Styles, our dress code .and so on.and son..its been so helpful to be "You" and to embrace it All..Thank You💝so Enjoy watching and listening to you..so true😊💖👍
So glad you are here, Paula! Thank you for your support, always! xo
I only have one black pants like these but when I see the neutral version and all the ways you wear it and so well...maybe I'll try one or two more ! You're really chic 😉👍
I love them! They are in my shopping list.
Hope these tips are helpful for you! Thanks for watching! xo
I have a silk-like material pair of pleated trousers I got from H&M. I am 5’10’ and always liked these when I was young and slimmer. Now it takes getting used to these all over again. This video got me thinking about what tops and jackets to wear with them. I actually have a cropped blazer in black and some cropped dress tops that would work for this look. Thanks for brain storming these looks with pleated trousers. I think my favorite look you showed was the pleated trousers with the tank top.
So glad this video was helpful for you! Thanks for watching!! xo
Hi Erin! The bonus look was actually my favorite on you.
Well thank you! Truly appreciate YOU! xo
Hey Erin 👋 thank you so much for your videos!! Have a good day 💫💫💫
You are so welcome, Vanessa! Thanks for watching! xo
I love these. I am going to shop for some. I especially like the casual look with tennies. I love the sandals in the bonus look. I might have to look for those too…
SO glad you enjoyed this one, Katherine! xo
Thank you for this video Erin. I wish it was live a couple of months ago because I ordered quite a few of these trousers too! I even went bananas on the price I was willing to pay for some of them because I wanted so much to wear one of these pants this Summer... None of them worked for me and after every return I was left with a horrible feeling that my body was the problem which escalated quickly to my age being the problem... As you can imagine, the whole experience ended in a lot of tears. Your video (and your face while modeling the outfits) made me laugh! God, I'm glad I'm not the only one frustrated about the fit of these pants!!!!
You could be writing my story. I hate how some trends just are a blow to my self esteem. At my age, I should know better but it still happens. It helps me somehow to know I am not alone. xoxo
You are NOT the only one! This was much harder than I had imagined. Thanks so much for watching! xo
I 💯 agree with you and I just bought my second pair! I strongly recommend Z Supply. They are a linen blend. They have elastic in the back so they are very comfortable! I have them in ivory and in black. I wear flat sandals and golden goose with them and I LOVE THEM.
Thanks for sharing your favorite, Amber!! Truly appreciate YOU! xo
Thanks a lot for this video, dear Erin! I thought I was the only one on the face of the Earth who finds super hard to style these pleated pants… What a relief! 😅😘
You are definitely not alone! Thanks for watching, Juliana! xo
You can also top them with a tailored sleeveless vest that defines the waist. Trés chic. Great tips!
These are great tips. Love these pants but they require thought to style. Really appreciate your working through the issues
Anything but effortless...Thanks for watching! xo
While I did like some of the looks, I am 5’4” with hips and booty so I am staying away from this trend lol. Love your content!
Thanks for watching! Appreciate YOU! xo
Me too😏
Same for me,
Same!
I would definitely try the blazer because of the fit top
I believe it works
I LOVE wide legged pleated pants-agree there’s not enough selection available-I find the trick is the pleat placement-single, double, tacked down etc. I have a tummy and big bum and they are very flattering
Thanks for watching, Kristina! xo
I LOVED the oversized blazer outfit - for me it’s so cool looking - will definitely pair with the chunky heeled slide - the chain detail adds something there to the whole thing. (I would have not thought of that!) this whole trend gives me serotonin lol
Love it! So glad this was inspiring for you. Thanks for watching! xo
The back of the pants always got caught in between the heel of the slides ( for me)😡
It did look so cool on Erin!
I'm literally your exact opposite because only a form fitting slim profile blazer will ever find space in my closet 😍
Been there done that with pleated pants!!! I remember tacking the pleats down!!!
One of my go-to looks is long, wide-leg trousers, flat-front or pleated. I think if you choose pleats, how the pleats are tailored REALLY matters, i.e. look for quality. I also find a higher- neck tank adds length and coverage, if that is desired. I'm tall with 32 inch inseam, so for my body way and style, I find them incredibly versatile: wear with a tank, camisole, t-shirt, crop sweater, romantic blouse, super-tailored shirt, waist coat or blazer. That said, I get how these are maybe not everyone's cup of tea. I loved your honesty and sense of humour in this one, Erin :)
So glad you enjoyed this one!! It was tough, but I did end up liking these looks in the end. Thank you for watching!! xo
I never was interested in this type of trouser but now that you showed us..I have to try it on and see if it fits me😀You looked good in every one of them
SO glad you found this video inspiring, Nadine!! Thanks for watching! xo
You pulled all of them off. I'm feeling my college 90 years looking back at me. This is all I wore! The last one was your best- always good to push it Erin- you might be surprised!
Love it! Thanks for watching! xo
I feel the same about my linen shorts from Banana Republic! Zero stretch. They either fit...or they don't. I appreciate the effort you put into this one! I can just picture the sweating...the sighing...the eye-rolling 🤭 and yet, everything DID look effortless (on you). I even love the over-sized blazer! With the sneakers...not trying too hard 😁
Thanks so much for watching, Jenn! This was a tough one! xo
Love it💞
I love pleated pants! I have tummy and I go up a size , it helps disguise my tummy problem!
Great ideas! I agree with the wide leg pleated pants being hard to style for us petites. I find I have to work extra hard to find a way it works for me as I’m curvy and only 5ft 2 so I have to wear like a fitted body suit with pants like that and a crop cardigan or blazer is cute as well.
Definitely hard to make this one look "effortless"! Thanks so much for watching! xo
Great video! Very informative. Love the recap at the end. I'm going to sign up.
SO glad you enjoyed this one!! Thanks so much for watching! xo
I am actually loving the wide leg high waist trouser look. It actually helps show off my waist which I have been working hard for . I have wide hips so it helps balance me out . Plus I love wearing them w my platform converse or Mules - feeling so fashionable . I have bought a couple of the pleated variety from banana republic - at first I was skeptical of the pleats but depending on which ones I can make it work . I do think something fitted on top is key . Since BR carries petite sizes- I think that is a good place for some ladies to look .
Love it! Thanks so much for watching! xo
Oversized blazer with the pleated pant is my favorite of the outfits! Looks great. I think it'll grow on you:-)
Thanks for keeping it real Erin!!
They are tricky to style!
I found a great tan pair at Banana Republic.
I am 5'5 and I didn't have to tailor them.
Agree-the key is a fitted top.
Favorite look has been with a pink fitted tee-color of the moment. Fun combo!
Good luck ladies!
Thanks for sharing! It's tough, but I did really love these looks in the end! xo
You totally rocked both pair’s of pants, I loved the tops you paired with them. I think the blazer looked really good with the pants.
Thanks so much, Isolina! xo
I fan girl whenever you have a new video. As someone who has always had a tummy, I was elated when these went away and dismayed when they Walking Deaded back into our lives. Even at 5'8" these do me no favors, but I will try them with the cropped blazers (which have changed my wardrobe, thanks to you). Great video, as usual.
Thanks so much for watching!! SO glad you're enjoying my videos. xo
I really like your fashion aesthetic; it closely aligns with mine. I'm 69 and already got me a pair of fab pleated pants (from Evereve here in St. Louis) and am having lots of fun with them. I will use some of your ideas going forward in order to continue to rock my late 60"s look. Keep up the good work and thank you!
Thank you SO much for your support! SO glad this was helpful for you! xo
Hi Erin great video. I purchased pleaded pants and every issue you mentioned I have come across ... This video is helping me styling my look. Thank you!
You are not alone! This one was so tough. Thanks for watching, Maria! xo
thanks Erin. for your hard work. amazing ideas. love it.💗💐💗💐💗
Thanks so much for watching, Paula! xo
I love the bonus look on you!
Thanks so much, Barb! Thanks for watching! xo
I have to say, this was a really good video! The oversized blazer does look good IMO
So glad you enjoyed this one, Kate! Thanks for watching! xo
A bodysuit or a cropped tight top would look fab with this pant. But yes, very tricky to style pleated, voluminous pants! I have that lace top in light blue but haven't worn it yet. I love the camel pants on you! And I agree with you. The oversized blazer look is fab!
Thanks so much for watching! Anything but effortless! xo
I love these pants although I'm petite. They always look good with a rib shirt, a classic white but light oversize blouse and an oversized blazer. These are my signature looks 😁
I found those pants in plum color in TJMax & fell in love with them ... but didn't know how to style them despite the gazillion pictures roaming the internet ... Thank you for the tips .. ♥️♥️
So glad this was helpful for you!! Can't wait for you to try out some of these tips! xo
