Oh dear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frustrations-about-pants#post-829002 Sat, 26 Jan 2013 00:11:58 +0000 JulieJohn 829002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bleah. I tried on seven pairs of pants yesterday, none fit, but I found all kinds of new ways for pants NOT to fit, so I feel your pain. I can't believe there are rises too high for *me*, the lover of natural rise pants. Now they have ones that practically go up to your armpits. sheesh.</p> <p>Good luck at BR and please report back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frustrations-about-pants#post-827852 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:28:45 +0000 Freckles 827852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck at BR.</p> <p>I feel for you.

I'm excited </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frustrations-about-pants#post-827480 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 15:57:06 +0000 Diana 827480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I agree with Angie. Try the Martins! (I also just realized that ALL of my non-jeans pants come from BR, and 2 of the 3 are martins. The third pair - my microchecks - may be as well but it didn't have a name so I don't know.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frustrations-about-pants#post-827252 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 05:47:04 +0000 lyn* 827252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BR, eh?

Granted, they are not always the classiest looking pants....but comfy! I second the jeans, you can get a ton of spandex and still look good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frustrations-about-pants#post-826945 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 22:55:49 +0000 lyn* 826945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes.

The dreaded crotch clumping<br /> 2. Too tight in the thighs<br /> 3. Material too itchy<br /> 4. Material too shiny<br /> 5. Pockets too pokey<br /> 6. Wrinkling over thighs<br /> 7. Wrinkling on side of thighs<br /> 8. Crotch clump when sitting<br /> 9. Wrinkling on thighs when sitting<br /> 10. Too short<br /> 11. Too long - if this was the ONLY problem, then I can get them hemmed, but it's not</p> <p>That's it. No pants. </p> <p>I don't know how you ladies do it. </p>
