Jennifer Lopez Made a Case for Ribcage Pants

Jennifer Lopez just took high-waisted pants to a whole new level.

The multi-hyphenate was spotted in Los Angeles on Thursday afternoon in what can only be described as ribcage pants — as in, trousers that were cut all the way up her torso. She wore the wide-legged pants with a white low-cut top and sky-high platform heels, pulling together a look that was at once sexy and business-chic. She accessorized with a pair of white-framed sunglasses and simple earrings.

It's been a busy week for J.Lo, who spent Tuesday promoting the re-release of her single "Love Make the World" with Lin-Manuel Miranda, which marks the five-year anniversary of the Pulse nightclub shooting. During an interview, Lopez was asked about her seemingly happy appearance after reuniting with Ben Affleck, and coyly side-stepped the question.

"Every time I see a picture of you and Ben [Affleck] — 'she looks happier,'" interviewer Hoda Kotb said as photos of Lopez and Affleck appeared on the screen. "Are we happier?"

"The song is out, five years since we've done it," Lopez said after a pause. "And I believe that that message of loving one another and coming together and love, is never more relevant than it is right now," she laughed.

She may not be ready to speak publicly about their relationship, but Bennifer did make their (sort-of) Instagram debut this week, as Lopez and Affleck appeared in a photo booth picture in a video on Lopez's friend Leah Remini's video.
