I think many of us like the thought of liking something so big it makes us look bigger (because our default is the opposite—trying to lol smaller) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1956479 Fri, 14 Sep 2018 18:27:16 +0000 K.M. 1956479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie</b>, YESSSSS!!!! I do have bottom problems!!!! Once I find a bit of time I will gather all my bottoms, try them on, and post the photos here. I am having a hard time with many of my old faves in terms of fit, length, and shoes to match. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1956444 Fri, 14 Sep 2018 16:40:49 +0000 rachylou 1956444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, but I still say they’re perfect for a $5 donut... hehe </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1956431 Fri, 14 Sep 2018 15:55:59 +0000 Angie 1956431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We need to review your bottoms,<b> K.M.</b>!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1956256 Thu, 13 Sep 2018 22:48:10 +0000 Anonymous 1956256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t mind oversized sometimes.

That was a common sight in the early 2000s everywhere, at least the people around me wore their pants that way. Now it does make me feel unkempt but being only a little over 5'2" sometimes that's the only way I can wear pants with flats without the hem looking too short.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>RobinF,</b> glad you understand this is not my only pair of too-big-pants that feel lovely when I need some breathing room...</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Angie</b>, yes... and looking at the pics, indeed, they are big all over. Unfortunately that's also the case with a couple of other beloved pants--and some (not these) I even had tailored to fit tighter, and they still are too big. I didn't lose weight, I think maybe the pants were a wee big from the start and then stretched with time and wear? This pair in question is an oldie from Old Navy from a couple of years ago. It was also the smallest size then... though now they make many things in Petites. (But then sometimes the Petite range is too short.)</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1956131 Thu, 13 Sep 2018 13:45:40 +0000 Angie 1956131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sweet, <b>K.M</b>., these pants are at least a size too big. I vote pass on. Sorry to burst the happy bubble </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1956096 Thu, 13 Sep 2018 12:20:49 +0000 RobinF 1956096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's a cute outfit! I agree that the pants look a little big but I am guilty of wearing too big pants for comfort also so totally get why you love them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1956074 Thu, 13 Sep 2018 10:55:02 +0000 Daisy Avalin 1956074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As I'm only 5', all my bootcuts/anything-other-than-skinny-trousers that I wear drag on the floor in flats! &nbsp;For this reason, I tend to have a couple of pairs that are thus 'scruffier' pairs for wearing with flats, and as much as possible I wear heels!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1955995 Thu, 13 Sep 2018 02:26:25 +0000 K.M. 1955995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div><b>rachylou</b>, I absolutely love being thought of as insouciant! <br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Runcarla</b>, yes, they are a bit big--and I must confess that's one reason I love them so much, because they are all the more comfy and breezy for being big. Also they kind of stretch with use, then I wash and they get a bit smaller, and the cycle repeats... Although I suppose they never quite go back to what they were when I first bought them. But you are right, that might be why I'm having trouble with them.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1955992 Thu, 13 Sep 2018 02:16:33 +0000 Carla 1955992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>k.m. - the pants look too big - not just long! You need to size down. They are a nice looking trouser, though, so I understand why you like them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1955984 Thu, 13 Sep 2018 01:57:16 +0000 rachylou 1955984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, no one should come to me for PPL<br /> advice: I’m a hipster and think floods are PPL... but this looks good to me. It has insouciance </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bootcutish-flats-and-ppl#post-1955919 Wed, 12 Sep 2018 20:56:30 +0000 K.M. 1955919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Not sure if this qualifies as a bootcut (maybe too wide at the top for it)? It's one of my favorite trousers because it is so soft and lightweight (it's a cotton/linen/stretch blend). <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>I wanted to wear it with the very flat flats in the first three pictures (D'orsay sandals). But then the pants were dragging behind me.</div><div><br /></div><div>So I put them on with my ultra-comfy Skechers sneakers, because my bunion was achy all night and I thought this morning my feet deserved some comfort. I wore it this way but not sure if I achieved PPL. Is it a tad long? <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>PS. This is was a "casual day" outfit. More about comfort on a really hot day with lots of walking involved. I don't necessarily feel super put together in it, but feel breezy <br /></div> </p>
