To wear these pants, simply step into them and adjust the smocked elastic waistband for a comfortable fit. You can style them with a coordinating cardigan for a more dressed - up look or a classic tee for a casual vibe. When it comes to maintenance, follow the care instructions on the label. Usually, it's best to machine - wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low. Avoid using harsh detergents as they may damage the fabric. Also, be careful not to over - stretch the elastic waistband when putting them on or taking them off.
