Avoid long pants or oversized ones too, or you'll end up with a really shapeless look and look bigger than you actually are. Now, besides the skinny and slim that were mentioned, straight-leg or even mom jeans work really well - the important thing is having something more fitted at the waist and thigh to create that contrast that balances out the oversized top. A high-waisted pant with an oversized blouse tucked in also looks stylish and shows off your figure better.

What kind of look are you going for, more casual or a bit more put-together?

Oversized pairs well with more fitted pants, like skinny or slim. It creates a cool contrast and balances proportions really nicely. If the blouse is really big, tight pants work way better than another loose piece, otherwise everything looks too loose and shapeless.

Mom jeans also work well with oversized, with that higher waistband and straight or slightly wide leg giving off those cool 90s vibes. If you prefer something more laid-back, even sweatpants or cargo jeans can pull off an oversized blouse, as long as the blouse isn't too long. The trick is not to have everything baggy at the same time - if the blouse is loose, the pants need some definition.

Pedro Silva asker I'm looking for a casual look, you know, something for everyday wear. Thanks for the answer!

I really like oversized tops paired with high-waisted pants - whether they're skinny, slim, or even straight-cut. The key thing is that the pants have zero volume at the waist so it doesn't all bunch up together. The danger that nobody talks about is overdoing the width of both pieces at the same time; a very loose oversized top with very wide pants turns into that shapeless mess that messes up any proportions. If you want something that looks cleaner visually, high-waisted pants that are fitted at the waist work better than anything too loose down below.

High-waisted straight-cut pants are really the best choice - it looks well-proportioned and you don't lose your waistline definition. The mom jeans someone mentioned also work well, but if you want something cleaner and more minimalist, a plain black pant with a fitted waist does the trick and it's versatile enough to pair with various oversized blouses without looking sloppy.
