There's something just so darn cosy and cool about a pair of high-waisted sweatpants. Unlike regular sweats, the high-waisted silhouette gives you a more street-style-ready look, even if you're just hanging out at home with your roommate. If the thought of actually attempting to style a pair is sending you into a tizzy, allow us to make the situation a little bit easier for you. The key to making your sweats look put-together is keeping your body's proportions in mind.

Much like high-waisted jeans, you can style your sweats with crop tops and even matching sweatshirts to complete your outfit. Spending a lazy weekend catching up on Netflix shows? You can opt for a bralette top in the same hue or ribbed tank top for an easy at-home outfit. If you're looking to dress them up, go for gold hoop earrings or rock some retro sneakers for a sportier look. Ahead, we're breaking down 15 easy yet stylish ways to wear your high-waisted sweatpants with a little help from our favourite style stars. Keep on reading for a little dose of inspiration, then shop some of our favourite selects if you're in the market for sweats.
