Joggers/harem pants, can they look stylish?!

Hello all!
Fed up wearing skinny jeans all the time. I’m a sahp to a 2 year old and wondering if it’s ever possible to wear joggers or harem pants and actually look stylish and not like you can’t be bothered making any effort and have just rolled out of bed?!
Thank you all experts! Flowers

@BeansOnToast123 I've also been googling Donna Air! I'm not in the UK so haven't seen the programme or heard of her. Didn't find any pics of her in this kind of style though.

So I ordered some joggers from amazon yesterday, should be here today so will try them on and report back!
The grey ones might be too casual but hoping the navy blue ones will look nice.

I have Alo Yoga moto sweatpants, and Z Supply harems. Both look good.

I've found a few looks on Pinterest and definitely prefer the spring/summer looks with white trainers, T-shirt, denim or leather jacket...here's a couple I liked

@KiteflyingKat they’re not joggers or harems though, certainly not in the spirit that the OP was meaning. The L&Y ones are structured, albeit soft, cotton twill and the OP is referring to sweatpant or jersey fabric which is a totally different thing.

I'd say no, they look generally a bit awful - however with a few caveats. If you're tall and slim they can look great!

I'm short and a bit chubby but I have loads of Hush harem pants and Top shop 90s joggers. I wear them with Nikes or Adidas and a slightly fitted t shirt

Who knows what I look like but I don't care

I am going to be embracing this look on Sunday’s. Slobbish, but fashion and I like it.

Sorry I mean slim fitted joggers, I don’t like baggy ones that look like slobbing about wear!!

So these are the ones I ordered...love the navy ones but think they are a bit too short so will send them back and get the 32" leg...

The grey ones are so soft and comfy, but a bit too casual and out of my comfort zone to wear outside just yet...perfect for days in though!

I think those are a great length on you.
