Problem is, it's hard to find chinos that are not : cheap cotton ; khaki ; too wide. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/easy-chinos-ensemble#post-1817082 Tue, 20 Jun 2017 21:37:08 +0000 Lisa 1817082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely chino outfit! &nbsp;I'm sporting chinos myself today and finding them a refreshing change from jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/easy-chinos-ensemble#post-1815678 Thu, 15 Jun 2017 12:32:48 +0000 Janet 1815678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great proportions on #2 especially.

I buy a few every S/S. Can't resist them.<br /> But their wide boatnecks don't look so good on me, so I've made lots of mistakes in my shopping of stripes.<br /> I'm glad I've found #2 because it's a "permanent" item of the brand and I will be able to duplicate.<br /> (In case Inge is interested : it's the Ilma model from Marimekko - good cotton, wash well). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/easy-chinos-ensemble#post-1815484 Wed, 14 Jun 2017 14:29:27 +0000 Inge 1815484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Isabelle, it's so wonderful to see you again (I've thought of you often). You are looking as lovely as ever, and I am really loving your "new hair".

Amazing how you can remember what all your clients and YLFers wear. I usually wear the blush stripe with the blush jeans, yes!<br /> I only put on #1 outfit this weekend because the blush jeans were in the laundry. The colour combo is good, the proportions enlight my short waist though - but I think it's JFE for a weekend outfit - I'll post a pic for you when the jeans are dry :)<br /> I see SuperSam is still very attentive to his duty :)</p> <p>Sara : Thanks, patterned flats are super versatile</p> <p>Brooklyn : not much humidity, no...the mess is entirely my own doing, I can't blame it on the environment </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/easy-chinos-ensemble#post-1815102 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 10:45:02 +0000 Brooklyn 1815102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey SL! Welcome back! You wear pants soooo well. I love your "messy" hair too. I suspect you don't have humidity where you are.
