Lazy days: we all have them.

Some days, you wake up and the thought of getting dressed just feels like way too much energy. Some days, you get out of bed and all you want to do is hop out to the next door cafe for a quick avocado toast and scurry back into your couch for some much needed lounging and Netflix binging.

But even on your laziest of lazy days, you deserve clothing that don’t just look good, but feel great too. That’s why we’re avid fans of a great pair of wide-legged pants. You slip into one of these, throw on a white tank top or tee and you instantly look more put together. Plus, they offer you plenty of comfort and ease of movement, AND they give you this magical illusion of having longer-looking legs – what’s not to love!

Sort yourself out with one (or all) of these 11 wide-legged pants, so the next time you’re feeling lazy, you already know what you need to throw on.
