Recently, I have made a point to slowly bring back my old dressing habits, pre-quarantine, and that includes adding <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/jeans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>plus-size jeans<\/strong><\/a> back into my outfit rotation. I\u2019ve found that dressing up again has allowed me to re-create a sense of normalcy and has increased my motivation which in turn has made me feel much better about myself, too.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With new styles dropping from our exclusive Molly &amp; Isadora spring collection, I can\u2019t help but get inspired to shift away from minimal <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/loungewear\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>loungewear<\/strong><\/a>-only styling for once. If you\u2019ve been in a style rut (like I\u2019ve been), consider adding some new favorites to your wardrobe and play around with style again.\u00a0 Let\u2019s bring back <em>actual<\/em> real pants!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This new collection is designed as a capsule, so each piece from tops, bottoms and dresses can be mixed and matched effortlessly. What is really exciting about what\u2019s new in this in-house brand are the pants. At <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Dia&amp;Co<\/strong><\/a>, we know how difficult it is to shop for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">plus-size jeans<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, (and, really, pants in general), so we\u2019ve taken great efforts to crack the code on what makes an amazing pant. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/fashion\/bring-back-plus-size-pants\/?tp_image_id=20604\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/gutenberg-blog-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2400X1524-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20604\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/fashion\/bring-back-plus-size-pants\/?tp_image_id=20595\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/gutenberg-blog-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/400x520.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20595\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The new collection has <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/pants\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>plus size pants<\/strong><\/a> for everyone\u2014including ones with great stretch, an ankle-grazing hem and natural colors that make them great transitional pieces as we slowly inch towards spring. (It may not look like it, but it\u2019s really just around the corner now. Promise.)<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Cynthia Cropped Utility Pants are great for those of us that enjoy comfort but want to take a break from athleisure. They are far more practical than leggings with slim side pockets. These are also deep enough to hold more than the average pant pocket so you\u2019ll even be able to try the mini-handbag trend without needing to hold back on carrying your necessities whenever you head out to run errands.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although the style is clearly inspired by the more functional cargo pant, the slightly frayed hem elevates it to having more of a bohemian-chic vibe. I suggest pairing the pants with a cute tank, cardigan and a layered necklace or even a striped sweater over a chambray top with some flats. These pants are so versatile that they can be dressed up or down, with the right accessories and shoes.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/fashion\/bring-back-plus-size-pants\/?tp_image_id=20593\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/gutenberg-blog-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/400x250.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20593\"\/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/products\/leroy-perfect-skinny-jean\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Leroy Skinny Jean $65<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That said, I can\u2019t talk about Molly &amp; Isadora without taking a moment to highlight the brand\u2019s major staple and must-have\u2014the Leroy Perfect Skinny Jean.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leroys are <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the<\/span><\/i> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">skinny jeans for plus-size women<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (they\u2019re called perfect for a reason). Aside from being available in several different colorways and washes, as well as having great structure and stretch, they are also the style that we have available in a range of lengths, so you can be sure to find the perfect fit for you. I\u2019m <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">short and curvy,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> so I personally know how hard it is to find a good pair of skinny jeans that works best for my height and body type. My tip is to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/style\/how-to-measure-your-inseam\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">find out what your inseam is<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and give these jeans a try.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I currently own the dark wash Leroy in regular length (27\u201d inseam) which ended up being just the length for me and they have since become my go-to jean. These are some incredibly <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">stylish jeans<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that work with a blazer and heels or dressed down with a basic tee and sneakers. I highly recommend getting yourself a pair, if you haven\u2019t already. You\u2019ll see how a perfect fit can really change your wardrobe and your attitude.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you team straight leg utility pants or denim skinnies? <\/span><b>&nbsp;Find your new favorite pair at <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/jeans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dia.com<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped columns-3 wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/wear\/plus-size-2021-fashion-trends\/attachment\/02082021_trend-1-and-trend-2-2400x1524\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/fashion\/bring-back-plus-size-pants\/?tp_image_id=20574\" data-id=\"20574\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/gutenberg-blog-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/02082021_Trend-1-and-trend-2-2400x1524-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20574\"\/><\/a><figcaption><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>5 Spring 2021 Trends I\u2019m Dying To Try<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>By Christine Yarde<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Just in case you forgot that being on-trend is still a thing, because I did!<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/wear\/plus-size-loungewear\/attachment\/shot_05_double_024_2400x1524\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/fashion\/bring-back-plus-size-pants\/?tp_image_id=20167\" data-id=\"20167\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/gutenberg-blog-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/SHOT_05_DOUBLE_024_2400x1524.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20167\"\/><\/a><figcaption><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>How I Embraced Loungewear By Making It My Own<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>By Marlena Matute<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;Dia fashion writer shares how her discovery of \u201cfeel-good fabrics\u201d opened her eyes and her wardrobe to new levels of comfort.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0I honestly miss wearing pants!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":40,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[187],"class_list":["post-20566","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fashion"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Remember Pants?
