Sweatshirt advice

But of a daft question but: how do you wear sweatshirts?I bought a couple of nice, not gym wear,
slightly oversized sweatshirts on vinted recently and they stop at low hip, sort of at knicker line/crotch level. Which makes me feel awkward wearing with leggings which was my original plan. They’re too chunky to do the half tuck thing. I’m a middle aged, average height, apple shape approx size 10/12. Should I be going for new jeans, joggers? Help!

I wear mine with barrel jeans, I fold the ribbed bottom underneath to make it look neat.

I rarely buy sweatshirts for anything other than sport or lounge wear, but when I do they’re from one of these places - all of which offer great styling inspiration. Even though both long and short are fashionable right now I think you’ll find it easier to style a more cropped length - closer to your waist - to accommodate wide trousers.

Have a look and see if any of these are helpful:
