Show off your assets with the right pants

A good pair of pants will fit without pulling or gapping, but there's more to a flattering pair than just that. Opt for a waistline that comes just below your navel, with a large enough flare at the bottom to keep your hips in proportion. A gathered waist is just not fashionable or flattering, but too low a rise will give you guaranteed muffin top. Once again, try them out -- sit down, stand up, walk -- make sure you can move and everything stays in place. -Kristen Seymour
