The key to pulling off paperbag pants is pairing it with a fitted top. Traditionally, paperbag pants are loose fitting. They are fitted around the wait (the majority of mine have a tie around the waist) to accentuate your waist. Wearing a fitted top is most flattering to balance out the loosely fit paperbag pants. Here, I’m pairing my striped paper bag pants with a fitted one shoulder long sleeve top and mules. Everything fits true to size.

If you’re wearing a jacket with your paperbag pants, a cropped moto jacket can be a flattering pick. The cropped jacket allows the paperbag pants to stand out and accentuate your waist. I chose to pair my black paperbag pants with my faux leather moto jacket, a fitted white tank top, a pair of leopard print heels and black crossbody bag. Everything fits true to size.

Fitted cardigans also compliment an outfit with paperbag pants. They give off a clean, fitted look on top and make your paperbag pants pop. I paired my beige paperbag pants with a white wrap bodysuit, black cardigan and beige pointed toe heels. Everything fits true to size.

Blazers also pair great with paperbag pants! If you’re looking for a killer work outfit – paperbag pants, a turtleneck and beige blazer paired with mules are fire. Simple, elegant and professional! Everything fits true to size.

If you’re looking for a date night look (or night on the town with the girls!) pair your paperbag pants with a low cut bodysuit. This one is one of my all time favorites (I have it in 3 colors!) as it is super flattering, has stretch and fit just low enough. I paired it with my beige paperbag pants and white booties. Everything fits true to size.
