I used to have more solid non neutral pieces and color mix a lot, but have been moving away from that in favor of neutrals/deep muted colors and prints. Most of my prints are skirts, thin pants, and bags. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2330422 Fri, 14 Jul 2023 17:53:55 +0000 ophelia 2330422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep I fell in love w/ that one too!<br /> I’m trying desperately to do what you did a few years ago, get some solids &amp; preferably neutral colors. At one point I had a closet full of prints, &amp; I don’t like pattern mixing. A true example of having plenty of clothes but nothing to wear. Must. Reform. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2330361 Fri, 14 Jul 2023 12:48:35 +0000 Anonymous 2330361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like some tie dyes- but just the dark blendy multiprocess ones that are harder to do and cost a lot more to buy! The ones like Brooklyn makes :)</p> <p>This is my Australian skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2330241 Thu, 13 Jul 2023 17:48:03 +0000 ophelia 2330241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol that website, thanks a lot Suntiger! I am dying…or dyeing, ha. Rainbow tie dyes were my staple in the distant past. Luckily for my bank account they are in the UK, because of course they are. Some fab vintage silver jewelry can be found there too.<br /> It seems all “my” clothes are in UK or Australia, the home of magnificent skirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2330156 Thu, 13 Jul 2023 05:11:04 +0000 Brooklyn 2330156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look great ST. Very you!</p> <p>I’m getting more into pants now that full length, looser styles are available again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2329993 Wed, 12 Jul 2023 11:58:53 +0000 Anonymous 2329993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all!<br /> Yes, Angie, I have done belly dance, but it's been a few years. The closest class is nearly an hour away, but eventually I'll go back to it.<br /> The harem pants are just for sleep, cause the fabric is very thin and I worry about sheerness. I would consider a heavier weight dark pair for colder weather though.<br /> Here's an interesting history of harem pants<br /> <a href="https://www.hippyclothingco.co.uk/blogs/hippy-clothing-blog/11083489-the-remarkable-history-of-harem-pants" rel="nofollow">https://www.hippyclothingco.co.....arem-pants</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2329968 Wed, 12 Jul 2023 07:15:10 +0000 Star (Lise) 2329968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice collection.&nbsp; I have been wanting to add a full length soft summer pair for a while but have not found the right pair yet.&nbsp; Harem pants are a good idea for sleeping, must be comfy.&nbsp; Unfortunately I cannot wear them here in the wild as a specific religious demographic does and it would not feel appropriate for me to wear them as fashion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2329939 Wed, 12 Jul 2023 01:32:26 +0000 Suz 2329939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wide pants for summer are the best! These look like terrific choices for you. A patterned pant can be especially fun, somehow.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2329936 Wed, 12 Jul 2023 01:22:49 +0000 Jaime 2329936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun collection!

Wonderful variety of colors/prints and shapes!<br />I wish for the right pair of wide leg pants but feel like my current shoes won't look the most interesting together ( same for some other pieces like linen jackets - too casual or uninspired ).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2329916 Tue, 11 Jul 2023 23:33:10 +0000 Angie 2329916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! Go Team Wide Pants! Soft, rigid, cropped and full length. I'm with you, <b>Suntiger</b> </p> <p>LOVE wide pants!</p> <p>Yours look smashing, and many beautifully Summery. Didn't you do belly dancing? I love how you added the harems at the end.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fun-with-lightweight-pants#post-2329884 Tue, 11 Jul 2023 19:35:24 +0000 Anonymous 2329884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have really been enjoying the wider leg pants styles lately- and having much more fun with pants than ever before! </p> <p>It started with the Indonesian print Liverpool pants I bought last year (could explain my sudden navy additions too).<br /> In spring I added the cargos and linen pants from ON. The blue and white (!) Sarong pants are a brand new addition, found on consignment. They're big on me, but I'll have them altered. I saw similar on Etsy in other colorways I'm considering too. All these I definitely consider transitional, very mild weather pants (55-80 degrees F ). </p> <p>The cropped pants (teal are shaped like black but couldn't find the right pic) are ok for mild summer days (below 90F /32C degrees). Truly hot weather still requires skirts/dresses! </p> <p>The harem pants are for sleep lounge, but a nice change from the too low back rise bike shorts I was wearing. As long as our ac's hold out, they're fine! I actually bought 4, but one pair shrank (plus they were a bit tight on the front of the leg) so they'll go in HZ or consign. I tried to stretch them but it only worked so well. From now on I hand wash them! </p> <p>Anyone else having fun with new-to-you pants shapes? </p>
