I have been pondering the cigarette/skinny pants but I couldn't decipher what length would be best. This really helps! I think I will be purchasing a pair in my regular inseam length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-117036 Wed, 13 Jan 2010 05:14:10 +0000 yublocka 117036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie they are a very thin cotton...def. not denim! They are similar to my H+M pants, but shorter and not as stretchy, so they don't get as much wear. Unfortunately the black has also faded a little with wear </p> <p>Even more unfortunately those pics were taken when we were moving into our place last year....too many memories!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116842 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 18:06:27 +0000 Vani 116842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd love to snag those pants too but I'm on a much needed shopping ban right now I look forward to seeing it on the rest of you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116834 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:34:34 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 116834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm...I wonder if I should try these pants? I've been looking for a denim-alternative that is more polished, but doesn't make me look too out of place running errands or at a kiddie playdate (house, not playground). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116811 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 15:20:53 +0000 Laura 116811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam, those pants look fantastic on you.</p> <p>Maya, I've PM'd the BR code to you.</p> <p>Actually, now I'm wondering if I can PM you all the codes, Maya. I thought since it was mailed to me as a cardholder that the codes were somehow personal to me and could only be used once. Now I'm wondering if I'm not that special </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116798 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 14:29:50 +0000 Angie 116798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think so Tam. Are they denim? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116772 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 12:32:25 +0000 yublocka 116772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think of these pants that I bought last year as cigarette pants (ankle length, no scrunch)....am I right?</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/3262161719/in/set-72157613470867653/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/y.....470867653/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116767 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 12:14:37 +0000 Kristen 116767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same coupon; they were giving it out at the store a couple of weekends ago, Maya; one for each Wednesday for a month. I am intrigued by the BR pants and I would like to see how this style looks on me; I think I will be stopping by our local BR on Wednesday night! Thanks for the idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116738 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 06:41:56 +0000 Angie 116738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bravo, Laura! You nailed it. I have the BR pants. Tanya and I are twins! They are HEAVENLY. You will never take them off your body. Bic Casual for me and loving it. </p> <p>Ele, phew! Thanks for the clarification. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116686 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 03:23:44 +0000 Maya 116686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura, I'll be happy to take that code! Yay! Hopefully they will still have my size in stock by then. These seem pretty popular!</p> <p>How did you get that promotion? I have a non-Luxe Banana Card and didn't get it. At least I don't think so. Did the offer come via your Gap Silver card? Or do you have a BR Luxe card?</p> <p>Sara, good find! I don't think I can make it on Thursday though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116685 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 03:14:52 +0000 Tanya 116685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I completely agree with your assessment on those two pairs of BR pants Laura. You should really get the first pair. I have it ( in both colors) and love them to death, and I am sure you will too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116599 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 00:34:45 +0000 MNsara 116599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya - FWIW, there has also been 25% bing cash back on piperlime (and that links to the complete line of stores). I know bing means a 60-day wait and I have heard some people have problems, but I have been happy enough. . .</p> <p>OH, just saw this: $30 offf $100 in-store purchase on 1/14 5pm-close for facebook fans</p> <p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=226386766866&#038;index=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.facebook.com/event......38;index=1</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116593 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 00:13:43 +0000 Laura 116593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>p.s. to clarify, the 40% is off of one item only, full price. That's why I'm doling out the Wednesdays </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116592 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 00:11:28 +0000 Laura 116592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I have a 40% off code for BR every Wednesday this month, online only, regular priced items. I am buying something this Wednesday and might actually buy the pants the next Wednesday. Would you like the code for the fourth Wednesday in January??</p> <p>I am a GapCard holder but just looked at the coupon and it doesn't appear to require a GapCard. I think this might be an offer you can't refuse! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116587 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 00:01:43 +0000 Maya 116587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those first pants are the ones Angie has and the ones I desperately want. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116579 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 23:54:31 +0000 Laura 116579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you everyone!! I might just be catching on. So here's my guess. These BR pants would qualify as cigarette pants:</p> <p><a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=37522&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=687156&#038;scid=687156012" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....=687156012</a></p> <p>But these BR pants would not, because of excessive scrunch and five-pocket styling: </p> <p><a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=21902&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=702776&#038;scid=702776012" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....=702776012</a></p> <p>Right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116554 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 20:36:06 +0000 Ele 116554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eeek! Angie, just to be clear- I was NOT voting for anyone to wear ankle-length pants! I would never do that to you :)</p> <p>I was just answering Laura's question about what defines a cigarette pant. As I learned in fashion school and the industry, a cigarette pant is one with a slim silhouette which ends at the ankle bone. I have a pair of skinny, non-jean black trousers with a little scrunch at the bottom, but I wouldn't call them cigarettes- just skinnies. </p> <p>Maybe that didn't need to be said, but I didn't want you to think I was guilty of crimes against fashion! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116517 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 19:26:17 +0000 Angie 116517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FULL LENGTH. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeze.</p> <p>The picture Julie linked to is perfect, Laura. I have a pair of pants just like that. Love them! Great with tunic blouses for business casual with either dressy flats or heels. </p> <p>I like a bit of scrunch - not a lot but just a bit. Adds voluminous textural interest to the look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116443 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:29:54 +0000 rae 116443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote ankle as well. The scrunch reminds me of a cigarette that's been stomped out already! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116442 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:27:13 +0000 Ele 116442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura, I'm pretty sure "cigarette" refers only to ankle-length pants, and not the type that has to be PPL. (Think Audrey Hepburn.) Once they start to scrunch they're just plain old skinnies </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116402 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 12:48:53 +0000 RoseandJoan 116402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not Angie (as you know) but I happened to be looking at some online today, here's the link<br /> <a href="http://shop.harveynichols.com/fcp/product/-/Sale/Cigarette-trousers/295490" rel="nofollow">http://shop.harveynichols.com/.....ers/295490</a><br /> I'm interested to know the answer to this as well Laura.<br /> If they are full length are they better with or without scrunch? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-cigarette-pants#post-116397 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 12:23:07 +0000 Laura 116397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, are cigarette pants full-length, or ankle-length? Would you be so kind as to post a link as an example?</p> <p>Thank you thank you! </p>
