...we tend to be more critical of our lower abs and "pooches" because of these crazy low waisted pants they make? I have recently been forced to buy those low waisted capri's and shorts. (Thank god Levis still makes regular jeans or I would probably cry). I really think these are not a good look for a woman of 40 who has given birth to 2 kids. Quite frankly, and maybe I am in the minority, but who in their right mind decided that the 70's had sported good fashion. I'll tell you they sure didn't consult me! I also have the problem with the fact that they pucker in the back. My SIL has gratiously offered to put a dart in my shorts, but then I need a top to cover it. I work out regularly and don't look too bad, but those low waisted fashions are not at all flattering to the waistline. Now those of you who are a size 2 or 4, probably look great in these. However, I wish they would offer both high and low waisted pants and shorts to us who are an 8. I know I'm problably stuck in the 90's, but I think they should be sold in the juniors dept. not Misses. Ok, I'm done venting. I guess I'll have to hit the abs 5x instead of 3x per week.
