Pants

Unless you carry a lot of weight in your lower body, low rise pants and hip huggers were made for you. Whether they're a skinny fit or a flare, you want a low waistband so that attention isn't drawn to the height of your natural waist. Your best trick is to wear a shirt with a bit of a fluttery hem, which will bring the eye down past your waistline. Even if you're not able to wear low rise jeans, be sure to stay away from anything with a really high rise. We like these Citizens of Humanity 'Ingrid' Stretch Jeans, $191 at Nordstrom.
