I find when I go looking for items, shopping is hard and when I am not wanting to spend money, I seem to be able to find so much that I would love to buy... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1788229 Thu, 16 Mar 2017 06:28:41 +0000 bella 1788229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hate trying on jeans. In fact, I think I desperately need some new ones right now, but I hate the trying on so much that I am completely avoiding it. You did very well after work! Pat&nbsp;yourself on the back!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1788214 Thu, 16 Mar 2017 04:04:40 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1788214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! Glad you found two great pairs of jeans, Anna. Those tassel jeans are so fun. I would say they're statements, but I'm a poor judge of such things, having a closet full of statements myself. Sorry about the tops, but finding jeans is a major success. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1788114 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 23:39:20 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1788114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These will both be great for you. I especially like the tasseled ones. Paige has some great super stretchy fabrics, but you wouldn't want a floppy one for wide legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1788095 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 22:39:40 +0000 SandyG 1788095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for you!

I am tempted by the tassel jeans myself but they are too long for me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1788007 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 18:46:27 +0000 Emily K 1788007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shopping IS hard. &nbsp;But, you win--you got two pair of jeans! &nbsp;And I hear you on the arm situation--I love the look of boxy tops, but they often have the skinny little arms and are a complete non-starter for me. &nbsp;I just recently started visiting that mall again--for a long time, I'd been too down-in-the-dumps about my appearance and didn't even have suitable clothes to wear for the shopping trip itself. &nbsp;I was too intimidated to shop almost anywhere brick&amp;mortar and retreated to shopping on-line almost exclusively. &nbsp;Just getting myself into that mall felt like a victory to me even though I didn't purchase anything yet. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787981 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 17:39:01 +0000 Angie 1787981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You came home with two pairs of jeans<b>. GREAT</b> going. Love them both.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787976 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 17:25:29 +0000 Thea 1787976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on finding 2 pairs! I'm impressed you tried on so many jeans - I can only&nbsp;try a few at a time before becoming discouraged. I would love to see how you style the tassel jeans and which of your fabulous shoes you wear with them!<br />If you go back, Uniqlo has some great short sleeved t-shirts right now, but I'm not very successful with their pants (size 12-14).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787915 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 13:08:30 +0000 Ginger 1787915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that is really a successful trip. Great jeans, very different from each other and should help you pull together a lot of outfits. Maybe the tassel jeans fall into the "interesting essential" category? What a fun detail! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787912 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 13:05:19 +0000 Momo 1787912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like a successful if exhausting trip!<br /> Love the tassel jeans .how fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787901 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 12:32:23 +0000 Inge 1787901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love both of these, Anna, and finding great jeans isn't easy, so I'd call this a big success! And you were right not to continue searching for tops without even having had dinner.</p> <p>The last few years I'm finding that a lot of tops are cut strangely: sometimes very tight in the arms with plenty of room in the chest, or the other way around, just like you described. Very annoying!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787900 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 12:29:59 +0000 harmonica 1787900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them both! Shopping when hungry or on low energy levels is not fun and can definately impact your perception and descision making. Hope dinner was good and that the jeans felt just as good when you tried them at home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787899 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 12:27:49 +0000 RobinF 1787899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I call that a success! These are both versatile and stylish and will amp up any outfit. Cute tassels. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787882 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 12:03:10 +0000 Elizabeth P 1787882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You were probably feeling a bit discouraged last night because you were tired, hungry, and mall lightinged out.&nbsp; Two pairs of jeans is a very successful shopping trip in my book.&nbsp; Now you have them, you can focus in on what you need for tops to go with them, when you have the energy to go at it again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787876 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 11:30:34 +0000 unfrumped 1787876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both of those jeans. The tassels are statement-y, but the shape and color are a perfect backdrop for anything. Good luck with tops next trip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787872 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 11:20:51 +0000 Tanya 1787872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both of those new pairs of jeans, very trendy and very suitable for your style.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; They will look cool styled with simple tops and your awesome shoes.&nbsp;&nbsp; As others have already commented, finding two pairs of well fitting jeans in a single shopping trip is am very successful shopping trip indeed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787868 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 10:58:38 +0000 Janet 1787868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are both great looking jeans.

Two pairs of jeans is a great outcome, and next time you can try the tops.&nbsp;<br />I really like the tassel jeans (and I'm surprised at that!) - they are cool.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787815 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 04:35:47 +0000 Anonymous 1787815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a trying (pun intended) day. I really like the Top Shop tassel jeans. If you got tired of the tassels, you could cut them off. A grey top as shown looks good, as would white. What footwear would you wear with them? The other pair you got look great too. On trend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempting-to-get-some-new-essentials#post-1787814 Wed, 15 Mar 2017 04:34:28 +0000 Sara L. 1787814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them both. I find shopping to be surprisingly tiring so I think you did well finding two well fitting, interesting pairs of jeans. </p>
