I'm wearing them again today! With the jacket! And then later with a cardigan instead of the jacket. (Sorry, no pics.)&nbsp; &nbsp;</div><div>Lisa, interesting thought about taking in the jeans. I've thought about that, too. It's the leg that is roomy, so it would be tricky. I doubt I'll risk it!</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401561 Mon, 29 Dec 2025 20:00:42 +0000 Jenni NZ 2401561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well good on you. In the end it has to be you who is happy!<br /> I have kept some things against forum opinion sometimes and worn them anyway! And sometimes if I photograph them again later the forum likes them!<br /> My size does go up and down by a couple of kilos depending on time of year etc, so maybe things fit a little differently at times. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401537 Mon, 29 Dec 2025 13:22:21 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2401537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see you’ve already made your decision, but I like the longer length and a less slouchy fit. Since you’re.a good sewist you might tweak the 26s a bit so they’re more fitted in the top block but remain looser in the leg. I so love the color of these pieces! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401498 Sun, 28 Dec 2025 17:22:16 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2401498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I appreciate the vote of confidence, Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401489 Sun, 28 Dec 2025 15:51:50 +0000 Angie 2401489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you made a decision, <b>Sharan</b>! FWIW, as someone who has shopped and dressed with you many times - keeping the slouchy longer pair of jeans is bang on the money. Very sartorially honest :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401485 Sun, 28 Dec 2025 15:01:46 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2401485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div><b>The decision</b>:&nbsp;</div><div>I appreciate everyone's feedback! I took it all in, as I went back and forth.&nbsp;</div><div>I've decided to keep the <b>larger/longer pair</b>, along with the <b>XS jacket</b>. My reasoning is that I am happier with a little extra slouch than I am with a cropped length on a straight leg opening. I am really liking the longer leg line of my full-length jeans these days. I've taken off the tags and already worn them!&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401484 Sun, 28 Dec 2025 14:50:44 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2401484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Dee!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401477 Sun, 28 Dec 2025 11:47:31 +0000 Dee 2401477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very tough call but I agree with ANGIE that 16- 21 would be my favs. I like the proportions here best, and the break in the line with the cuff works really well and gives a relaxed but elegant slouch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401467 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 23:14:45 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2401467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Thank you, <b>Rock</b>, and <b>Lyn67</b>, for your thoughts. Lyn, the 25/32 are not going to materialize, I'm afraid. They weren't listed when I ordered, and now both the pants and jacket are completely out of stock.</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401460 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 20:59:34 +0000 lyn67 2401460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am learing a lot here, as I am not a pants person at all. To my untrained eyes I favor proportions in 10-13 BUT I do also see what Angie is trying to say, with the longer 32 length-would love to see the 25/32, too...LOts of work to do for a good decision but XS jacket is fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401459 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 20:58:41 +0000 Rock 2401459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sharan, it is definitely a keeper set, no matter what size combination you choose! A teal denim set is just wow. My preference is the XS jacket with the longer, bigger jeans. First, I embrace the oversized trend. These jeans are oversized but not sloppy, and the jacket adds structure, neatness, and intentionality. I also enjoy a cuff on denim, and cuff almost all of my denim pants. The look is modern and draws the eye to your shoes. Your shoe picks are chunky enough to support the overall look. Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401454 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 18:30:38 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2401454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Thank you for your detailed reply, <b>Angie</b>, and for the compliments!&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review/page/2#post-2401453 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 18:06:12 +0000 Angie 2401453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OOOH! Wow! Fun! Thanks for the update, follow through, and multiple pics. A treat!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Sharan</b>, <i>I think you rock it ALL</i>. I like the XS and S in the jackets. I like the bigger and longer AND shorter and smaller in the jeans. Soooooo that's that point :)&nbsp;</p> <p><u>If I had to choose for you: <br /><b></b></u><b><br /></b><b>#16 to #21 are my favourite proportions</b><b><br /></b><u><b></b></u><br />I have a preference for:&nbsp;</p> <p><b>XS Jacket</b>. That cheeky shorter length is soooo awesome to my eye. I have a thing for short jackets. Biased!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>32 Pants. </b>The longer length and bigger size. Just so elegantly fashion forward. Very YOU. Signature volume.</p> <p>That said, can't go wrong with the shorter and smaller pair of jeans. They are more practical in our wet weather. You look brilliant in those too!</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2401449 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 16:07:38 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2401449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, cat2!

I think it won’t scream bought chasing the oversized trend, and so will have more closet longevity. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2401445 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 14:25:47 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2401445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Star! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2401442 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 07:16:09 +0000 Star (Lise) 2401442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too like the shorter and smaller version.

Hope you had a good holiday time!<br /> I personally prefer the shorter/smaller jeans, I felt and still feel that the other pair is too big.

Cute with the cuff, but I might exchange them for a smaller fit...or order it, and return the one that doesn't work. Jacket looks great!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2400124 Thu, 04 Dec 2025 01:25:32 +0000 Lisa 2400124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this set, it looks great as a matching set, and both pieces will be lovely mixed with other items too. An excellent addition to your wardrobe.</p> <p>I like my jeans to have a bit of slouch sometimes. These have that to my eye. I especially like the exaggerated big cuff, which I've seen sewn on some jeans to showcase a big cuff like you have here.</p> <p>I don't know this brand. Will the jeans stretch out with wear? If so they may be too big. If you can try a smaller and shorter size, it's worth it to at least check the box so you aren't left wondering "what if."</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2400065 Tue, 02 Dec 2025 21:10:57 +0000 Janet 2400065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IKWYM about these dark colors not photographing well. I was intrigued by the set too, but I know myself well enough to know I’d probably never wear it as a set. </p> <p>I do think it looks really cool, but yes, I agree the jeans look a bit big. Curious to see the size down! The most important thing is how it feels. I’ll be following along to see how the sized down versions work for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2400057 Tue, 02 Dec 2025 18:56:51 +0000 Kyle 2400057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sharan, I love seeing your posts because your wardrobe and styling choices are unique and interesting to my eye. This teal set is no exception. I love that it’s a set, as I’m very taken with those at the moment, and teal is absolutely a favorite color. It’s very fresh and fun in denim. I’ll be watching to see how the new sizes work out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2400033 Tue, 02 Dec 2025 03:32:33 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2400033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div>Thanks, all, for your comments.&nbsp;</div><div>Jenni NZ, my photos don't do the color justice. It is a more lush teal than it looks in my photos, more like the stock photos, maybe a tad less green.&nbsp;</div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2400009 Mon, 01 Dec 2025 21:47:46 +0000 Jenni NZ 2400009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aviator look I reckon, this set. I find the jeans too big and sorry to all Fabbers who like them but I’m not personally a fan of those big wide cuffs. I like the jacket on you.<br /> They don’t look nearly as teal in the pics as the Find.<br /> Your legs do look miles long but overall I much prefer your new animal print jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2399997 Mon, 01 Dec 2025 20:02:21 +0000 pirouette 2399997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the jeans appearing too big for you. The jacket seems a good fit in the picture but if your ordering a size down in the jeans you might as well order the smaller jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2399994 Mon, 01 Dec 2025 19:24:11 +0000 Sal 2399994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not sure - cool pieces but I think the jeans might be too big. A smaller size will be interesting to see. Stunning wash and cut though and so fingers<br /> Crossed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2399993 Mon, 01 Dec 2025 19:21:32 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2399993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m agreeing with others who suggested a smaller size. I like a longer length leg on you, too. But I’m loving the color of these pieces so it’s great you’re persisting with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/g-star-teal-set-try-ons-review#post-2399986 Mon, 01 Dec 2025 13:53:07 +0000 RobinF 2399986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, such long legs!</p> <p>I like these but agree my first thought was they look too big. But I do like them better with the cuff and washing is a consideration. I personally prefer my pants loose so would be leaning that way for myself.&nbsp;</p> <p>Glad you are ordering other sizes to compare.&nbsp;</p>
