They have a tulip hem and are supposed to hit at the ankle. They don't fall open at all.&nbsp;My trip is probably going to be postponed another week so I'll have a little more time to think it over. They are also available in white, but I was afraid of the see-through factor.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-998636 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 20:00:49 +0000 Anonymous 998636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote pass on these. &nbsp;I think you can find something with a similar feel that looks more modern. &nbsp;These look dated to my eye -- something about the length --&nbsp;and the fabric reminds me of curtains. &nbsp;How about some beautiful wide-leg linen pants? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-998609 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 18:51:59 +0000 Marley 998609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you could do better.&nbsp; In the pics the fabric looks really stiff - not flowing, like I think of when I think of beach or pool wear/wraps.&nbsp; Also, the length isn't quite right - they're neither maxi, ankle, cropped, etc.&nbsp;&nbsp; - like they can't make up their mind.&nbsp; They also look pretty bulky&nbsp; around the waist - they just don't lay very nicely. &nbsp;I think they're just too much for your thin/smallish frame.&nbsp; I'd pass on these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-998577 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 17:32:48 +0000 rachylou 998577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them with the tank tops. They're so Round Hill Jamaica. I'd do a flat sandal with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-998573 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 17:26:30 +0000 Ingunn 998573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them, too! I prefer the top tucked in, and I also find that they suit your lean figure very well. DV's styling advice sounds very interesting. You can definitely wear these for dinner, too, in a casual setting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-998551 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 17:03:19 +0000 Cindy 998551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them but do they fall open when you sit?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-998095 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 23:55:10 +0000 Anonymous 998095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them better with the top tucked in.&nbsp; </p> <p>In general these look too stiff to me and the length seems off.&nbsp; A little longer or shorter I think I would like them more.&nbsp; </p> <p>I say if you are wearing them JUST because they are comfy then pass.&nbsp; If they are comfy and you LOVE them then keep.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-998086 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 23:39:57 +0000 JulieJohn 998086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them! Dare to be different, especially appropriate at the beach. You have a lot of options for tops, but for another idea I'd consider pairing them with something nautical like a mesh sweater, boatneck. They go great with the shoes you chose. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-998043 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 21:45:36 +0000 Lyn D. 998043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see them 'dressed-up' rather than in a casual setting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-997926 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 19:01:34 +0000 Karie 997926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I liked pic #1 on the left side, and the tanks in pic #2.&nbsp;I liked the hemline...the soft fabric..oh well, I guess I am off to find some linen pants that don't wrap.. </p> <p>Wait a sec...I just saw Day Vies' post...score one for my side! I like your suggestions, too! I have bangles and I have hoops for stylin'!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-997924 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 18:59:56 +0000 Day Vies 997924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them definitely with a tucked top. I think shortening your torso allows the pants to be the star and does not force the top to try to compete with such a dramatic statement. I really like the tanks with these pants and think that with boho/beachy accessories you'll look boho polished.&nbsp; May I suggest gold oversized hoops (not too big - but not too small) and an arm full of bangles?</p> <p>I really love these pants they put me in the mind of something that Caro might wear. My favorite combos are with the teal tank and the coral tank.&nbsp; Above all definitely tuck!&nbsp; Have fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-997915 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 18:48:44 +0000 Glory 997915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your maxi or some lovely wide legged linen pants would work very well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-997914 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 18:47:51 +0000 Susie 997914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of them but I think they overpower you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-997913 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 18:47:48 +0000 TraceyLiz65 997913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had some hope since you mentioned boho... but really think you'd do better with wide leg linen pants.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-997890 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 18:27:14 +0000 Karie 997890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Darn! They're so comfy... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beach-chic-or-hide-under-the-blanket#post-997886 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 18:18:22 +0000 Parsley 997886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not my favorite, either.

I thought these wrap pants would be nice to wear en route to the beach/poolside. Perhaps they could even take the place of my maxi for an oceanside dinner? They probably aren't everyone's cuppa, but they do appeal to my boho side.</p> <p>Sorry about the poor lighting in some of the photos - the wrap pants have a grayish undertone IRL. Hair and make-up are not done either, so if you say "Hide under the blanket!" I'll understand </p>
