<-h2->Mid rise jeans that stay put<-h2-> Mid rise jeans sit above the hip and below the natural waist, which is why so many women quietly own more of them than anything else. Straight, wide leg, flare and skinny fits come in indigo, black and washed blue, in rigid denim that holds a line and softer stretch that moves with the day. The rise stays put when you sit down without pressing in, so it suits long days: a straight pair with a fine knit, a loafer and a slim gold chain handles a desk, a school run and a coffee that turns into lunch. For an evening out, take a black wide leg mid rise with a satin blouse untucked, a heeled mule and a clutch. Skinny fits want a longline knit and a flat boot through winter. Tuck, half tuck or leave it loose, since the waistband is high enough to take all three. You get four leg shapes in one rise, cut for a wardrobe that already works.
