    During the spring, I like to pair high-waisted skinny jeans with wedges, which creates a very slimming, elongated look. I pair this with a fisherman hat, a chiffon blouse, and a vibrant cardigan to make the perfect outfit for a fresh spring day!

    How do I tuck in my shirt to high waisted jeans?
    Community Answer
    Undo your jeans and pull them down. Do up your jeans over the top of the shirt (keeping the shirt flat against your body) stretch your arms upwards and then bend down as if you're going to touch your toes. This will give you the perfect amount of movement in your shirt whilst being tucked in.
