I think this is the style. At 5'1", her ankle pants are full length on me!

Quite a bit lower price point that Eileen Fisher, especially if you wait for a sale.

I'll keep my fingers crossed and light a candle. ;~) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-and-others---unembellished-pants#post-762331 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 22:28:55 +0000 JulieJohn 762331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Susie, I will check those out! No anti-Chicos bias for me, I am interested.</p> <p>pil - I tried all the pants they had at Coldwater Creek, and none fit me well - not enough difference between waist and hips for me. But I don't know if I tried the Holly. I was eyeing that on their website cause it comes in quite a few colors. I will visit them again and ask to see Holly. Sounds like a password at the back door, LOL. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-and-others---unembellished-pants#post-762328 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 22:27:03 +0000 DonnaF 762328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eileen Fisher: Very, very nice but pricey. Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale starts tomorrow, but something this basic may not go on sale. Hope springs eternal, tho'! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-and-others---unembellished-pants#post-762309 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 22:13:41 +0000 pil 762309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought a pair from Coldwater creek recently. I think it is the Holly. They run a tad big as I ended up with the medium. The waist is fairly high on me. Haven't worn them yet but may do so this weekend.</p> <p><a href="http://www.coldwatercreek.com/product-detail/61885/68569/ponte-holly-pant.aspx?refLink=search.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.coldwatercreek.com/.....earch.aspx</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-and-others---unembellished-pants#post-762307 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 22:11:58 +0000 Susie 762307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie, I know that most people here are not a fan of Chico's but I had a pair of ponte pants from there that were just what you described- a plain wider waist band and tapered leg. They worked well with tunic length tops because they were slim but not tight like leggings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-and-others---unembellished-pants#post-762305 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 22:08:44 +0000 JulieJohn 762305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am looking for a pair of black or brown pull-on pants, in a dressy fabrication like a ponte knit. I am a curvy petite with a 10" difference between my waist and my hip measurements.</p> <p>My special request is no embellishment on the waist and hip area. No belt loops, no buttons, no faux fly.</p> <p>I need this because I have a few sweaters and knit tops that are very fitted in the hips (because my hips are wide), and they just don't lay right over most pants. I always see bulges and bumps, and sometimes they can really ruin the look.</p> <p>Do you know of such an animal? Thank you in advance for your ideas! </p>
