Sorry about the pics. I cropped them in Photobucket but when I posted them they came out not cropped. I guess Photobucket is smarter than me.

You're a pretty hot pirate San. The blouse is beautiful and I love the pants too. I would not know they were knit pants if you didn't tell me. Do they look more like a knit in person?

Very cute! I have some similar heavy black knit Eileen Fisher pants bought pre YFL that go on every trip. You'll love yours.
Is the silk top washable? I like the fullness on your slim frame. Didn't you also get it in a different color?

San, you look more like a gymnast to me the way you are balanced on that tub! Don't fall in!!!

That's a beautiful top and the color is gorgeous! The pants look like they fit great!

That is so funny, I look like a gymnast! Yes some balancing required but I try to keep touch with the wall.
Yes Joy I also got one in a smokey purple. I should have taken a pic of that one too but my camera battery died after these pics. So if I get a thumbs up on the style I will take a pic of the purple one. I don't know if I really need 2 though.
The pants are just like jeans only a really nice thick knit, no back pockets, no belt loops. Joy I'm glad to hear that you like yours so much and I can imagine they are great for travelling.

San! You have GOT to get a full-length mirror somewhere else -- you are making me nervous, balancing on the edge of your tub!!

Love the pants (and the top), but how is the pants length when you add shoes? Are they long enough?

Posted 3 months ago

I will have to work on the shoe issue. I guess I was thinking of tucking in boots quite often.
Joy, how do you wear your knit pants?
Maya, the knit fabric of the pants is similar to the knit of these dresses.

I love the look San. Very dashing yet romantic. The blue is so rich. The pants look super comfy too!

You're the cutest pirate ever San!-) And it's a beautiful blouse, it has a bit of a romantic and artistic vibe to it. Like Joy, I was wondering about the purple one. Let's see a picture;-)

a fabulous looking pirate! the color of that top is all kinds of superb. although i have to say i was nervous seeing you hopping about on the edge of the tub like that :P

I do not know how you manage to look both relaxed and chic whilst perched on the edge of your bath!

Respect where it's due San you look fab.

San, like yours, my pants are quite slim in the leg. I usually wear them with cute flats or low or wedge heels. They don't look good with flats with a high vamp like loafers or slides. Like skinnies, the pant legs scrunch a bit.
I'm still adjusting to jeans tucked into boots (feel like a pirate) so haven't tried doing it with these yet. I'm sure it would look fine and I would do it if the weather was cold and wet. Maybe this winter I'll work at sporting the boots-with-tucked-pants look more often.

That colour blue is KILLER on you. LOVE the pants as well!

I adore the outfit, but I’m one of those gals who loves volume. I think it's alluring. Do you think you can do it too, Sandy? It’s totally out of your box.

I love, love this blouse. I have to admit- I love anything with full sleeves. This style and color look so good on you- not pirate-y, just effortlessly chic.

Aargh, matey! I've been completely immersed in a huge project, but I came up for air for a few minutes to check on the forum. How nice to be greeted by you in this beautiful blue blouse! Absolutely stunning. You should wear this color all the time!

Well my little boy would love you! He loves anything having to do with "piwates" and will be one for Halloween.

I love love love the color of the blouse. Very pretty on you!

This has been fun reading all of the comments. Thanks ladies.
Angie nailed it that this is out of my box and will take some time to get used to and see if I actually would wear it. The pants are keepers for sure.
The weather changing in a month or so will make a huge impact on what feels right to wear.
I'll try it on for my husband and see what he says.

San, did you decide whether what you are going to do with the tops? How's the weather now? We are headed to Victoria & Vancouver this week and I'm wondering what to pack.

Posted 3 months ago

Today was cool and cloudy but the forecast for the coming week is calling for hot weather again. I'd definately go with layers anytime in the Pacific NW.
Have fun Joy. Are you coming to Seattle Joy?
Rena I'm so glad you got your pictures to download.
