With flowing silhouettes, linen-like materials and billowy wide legs, our top picks are as comfortable as they are chic. They’re proof that there’s no excuse for a sloppy sweat, whether you’re hitting the farmer’s market or soaking up the sun on the beach. Case in point: these high-waisted pants make you look expensive in no time. . . even if you are barefoot!
11 Billowy-Inspired Lounge Pants
1. Old Sum: Hot afternoons are unbearable in synthetic fabrics, which is why these cotton linen pants save them. Natural fibers actually take a breath.
2. Mediterranean Twist: With a Mediterranean-style print, these vacation-ready bottoms do most of the styling work for you. Pair them with a plain white t-shirt and you’ll look just like you in summer in Positano.
3. Sassy Stripes: If wide leg styles shorten your line, these nautical striped pants are the solution. The print draws the eye up and down the long, soft silhouette.
4. Find a Store: Slip on some tie-dye pants with a linen tank top and gold hoops for a patio dinner. The cut edge is perfect for showing off your sandals.
5. MVP of Clothing: At just $10, PrettyGarden’s everyday pants are an easy ‘yes’ – and will become your most-worn pair in no time. Buy in two colors and rotate them throughout the week.
6. Radiant Beauty: Make a statement in these wide leg pants, which transform your outfit in seconds. Cuts and prints quickly dress up an empty tank.
7. Cargo Chic: Do you like to add a little edge to your outfit? The cargo pockets give these laid-back pants an interesting look.
8. Beautiful Plants: Slip into Anrabess’ cute cropped pants with t-shirt and raffia slides. A short hem keeps things light and breezy during patio season.
9. Center of attention: The bright red color, soft trim and billowy cut make this $18 pick polished enough for work, yet still comfortable enough for the commute.
10. Luxe Leopard: These leopard pants take the comfort of lounge pants and inject some personality (and a little sass). They are rich in mother’s style.
11. Picnic vibes: With a darling gingham print, these picnic-ready floors hit that sweet coastal-cottage note. You’ll want the striped variety, too.
