I've only found two ways to wear mine that reflect my style:

1) with a plain, deep v-neck s/s tee (American Apparel or J Crew Tissue tee), not tucked in, with an extra-long, light-weight scarf wrapped around my neck, in either heels or flip flops

2) with a thin, long-sleeved cashmere sweater, again with a scarf around my neck, in heels.

I love harem pants, but they are hard to wear if you don't know how to style them correctly. I'm also not really a fan of how they're worn in that picture.

I wear mine with plain (kinda big in size) t shirts, but as a sporty outfit alternative, I wear them during yoga for instance. I don't like harem pants as a casual everyday or evening outfit.

I usually wear mine with heels and a fitted tank top

Simple, casual and fitted on the top.

IMO wear nothing that competes

I haven't worn mine yet...just bought them today but I was wearing a t-shirt when I tried them on and it looked fine. I'm REALLY loving the newer style of these pants. Last go round they were baggy on the inside (MC Hammer) this time they are fuller on the outside!

I wore a pair today with a nice lightweight grey t-shirt (with a deep draped neckline) and my black michael kors (about 4 inches) - strappy with a gold zipper up the middle) - they're so comfy!

i just got a pair from h&m. mine isn't too... diaperish? it's more baggy and cuffed at the knees. definitely pair with high heels. i actually think something loose on top would balance it out well. like a loose vneck tucked in... or some sort of draping top.

My boss is in her fifties and she wore a black tailored pair to work with heels a dress shirt and a blazer. She looked amazing.

I love harem pants, they're so comfortable. Just pair them w/ simple top & w/ a nice cardigan for fall, strappy heels & a SMASHING! bag. AWESOME!!!!

^ I agree...I think you can wear whatever you want on top but some strappy heels will do the job.
