If only everything was as simple as this styling trick

It’s the simple things in life that we need to appreciate the most, right? Well, it doesn’t get much simpler than this fashion hack. And I don’t just appreciate it, I love it.
I’m sure this will sound familiar: you want to pair a big sweatshirt or a thick woolly jumper with your trousers or skirt and hide the hem inside the waistband of the trousers or skirt. Sounds like a casual look, but often ends up a small disaster of bumps and bulges. So what's the solution? Letting the jumper hang down carelessly over your hips? Sure, if you want. But a better idea is to use an elastic band.

I recommend going for a slightly wider band, as it’s more comfortable and offers you better support. But the trick even works with an old shoelace. It’s your choice. So, grab an elastic band and you’re ready to go.
Step 1:
Cut the band to fit the circumference of your hips and tie the two loose ends into a knot to create a closed ring.
Step 2:
Slip into the ring and place it at the right height.
Step 3:
Now put on your jumper as usual and tuck the hem under the elastic band.

No more strange-looking bulges and clothes that slip out when you sit down and stand up. Sound good? There’s more: the same trick works with skirts, too. You’re welcome.
