Is that workable, Catnip?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181201 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 00:08:57 +0000 Suz 1181201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Classic. Is there a seam allowance at the hem? Can you let them out by an inch or so? The length will make <b>ALL</b> the difference to how these come across, IMHO.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181180 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 23:43:35 +0000 Jenny H 1181180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with others that these are classic enough to be work regardless of what the current trends are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181175 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 23:35:11 +0000 Anonymous 1181175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh- they look great- if you purge, send them my way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181167 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 23:20:59 +0000 Karie 1181167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A hair short with those shoes, otherwise, they're classics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181160 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 23:09:30 +0000 Catnip 1181160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all.&nbsp; These pants almost got purged&nbsp;several times, but I'm going try them with a lower heel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181141 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:55:38 +0000 always trying 1181141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeh, I think they look classic.&nbsp; Good quality and fabric -and are keepers.&nbsp; Of course I am not such a stikler about lengths as some-I think it is more about fit, the shoe, and wht pants are styled with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181128 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:45:49 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 1181128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think they would be better with a lower heel. Otherwise, thumbs up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181124 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:42:48 +0000 Kristin L 1181124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them as well. I like Patrica's idea of road testing them. Make a few outfits with it and see how they go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181123 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:42:43 +0000 annagybe 1181123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look too short with those shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181119 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:37:47 +0000 carter 1181119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181108 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:32:39 +0000 Patricia 1181108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that they look good.&nbsp; Perhaps you could build an outfit around them and see how you feel when you wear them.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181107 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:32:08 +0000 Mochi 1181107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they're perfectly nice and flattering and don't look particularly on- or off-trend. Neutral to me, in other words. If you feel good in them, keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-everyone-3#post-1181106 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:30:33 +0000 Catnip 1181106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I read the post on wide legged pants a week or so ago, I remembered I had some pants in the back of a closet that I haven't worn for at least ten years.&nbsp; I finally found them.&nbsp; There are two pairs, one black and one a dark navy, both&nbsp;made of a lovely, silky gabardine and fully lined.&nbsp; They look new, and amazingly I can still fit into them.&nbsp;</p> <p>So the question is, are these pants enough like the ones in Angie's post that I can consider wearing them next fall?&nbsp; Or even now?</p> <p>The pants have a straight cut.&nbsp; Starting&nbsp;just a few&nbsp;inches below the crotch they are perfectly straight all the way to the floor.&nbsp; The bottom opening is 19 inches.&nbsp; Somehow they look shorter in the pictures than in a mirror, and I think that may be because you can't see the break.&nbsp; Since the pants are not at all flared, they will never cover the tip of my shoes no matter how long.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>In the pictures I am wearing the navy pair&nbsp; because I hoped they would show up better.&nbsp; I could wear them with shoes with a slightly lower heel if that would look better.&nbsp; When I am standing in bare feet, the back crease touches the floor.&nbsp; I made no effort to style the pants, and am wearing them with an old tee shirt.</p> <p>So what do you think?&nbsp; Should I keep them or purge them?&nbsp; Thanks for any comments.</p>
