#3. High-Waisted Jeans
After years of struggling to keep their bellies and behinds from falling out of low-rise pants, women finally got some coverage in 2007 with the comeback of high-waisted jeans. As usual, the trend got an added boost from paparazzi favorites like Mischa Barton and Jessica Simpson, who were caught out and about wearing high-riders, prompting women to rush out with open wallets to get their own pair.
