Beware of creeping waistlines
This just in: Hollywood starlets are slowly being swallowed alive by high-waisted pants!
Why, oh why:

Mischa Barton is rocking bona fide mom jeans (minus the tapered legs, but still). I'm pretty sure Miss Thang is a twig -- but this unflattering style gives her a definite bunchy paunch in the front. And what's with the ratty, tucked-in tee? Mischa, fire your stylist, stat. Other celebs who have recently sported high-waisted styles include Gwen Stefani, Jennifer Lopez, and Scarlett Johansson.
I, for one, am not a fan of this recent style epidemic. Viva the low-rise revolution!
