It's early days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-286380 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 14:34:09 +0000 Sveta 286380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Melissa thanks, I will look into those.<br /> Angie, I was in Jacob yesterday and did not see anything there. Need to check out Mexx and Esprit (I am not sure we have Esprit where I live), thanks. Should I go for a darker wash (if I find anything) to minimize my bottom part or can I pull off the lighter one?<br /> Renata, I would not even think about Liquidation World! Need to check them out... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-286370 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 13:43:07 +0000 Misia 286370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I got mine at the Liquidation World of all places. Original price was 120 bucks and I got them for 19, came home with one pair and then the next day I went and got 2 more. Do you have that store where you live?<br /> It looks like the have a web site, you can check that out if you want. Just google Buffalo Jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-286275 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 05:24:07 +0000 Angie 286275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, Renata was wearing very wide leg trouser jeans a few weeks ago. I wonder where she got those from? </p> <p>Have you tried Esprit, Jacob and Mexx? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-286271 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 05:19:38 +0000 Melissa 286271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, what about Habitual? This is a premium brand I'd never heard of until I ordered a pair on a whim from amazon. I have been in love with mine ever since, and they were really long on me (I had mine hemmed). It looks like their inseams are normally 34".</p> <p>I have the Haley flares, which aren't readily available anymore, but here are a few others that look similar:</p> <p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/68xyk67" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/68xyk67</a></p> <p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/68a75a2" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/68a75a2</a></p> <p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/6cyjt58" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/6cyjt58</a></p> <p>Will any of those places ship to Canada?</p> <p>I think you'll look *amazing* in the right pair of flares! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-286267 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 05:08:49 +0000 Sveta 286267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Celia, I have tried those Gap jeans today. As I thought - too short: they were at least 1" above the floor while barefoot! Ugrr...<br /> So where do I look now???? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285864 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 17:59:25 +0000 Carole 285864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taking notes, Sveta. I need bootcuts too and I need the tall length as well which sometimes limits me. I have Gap on my list to check out, I thought all examples look good. You might like a darker wash better, but I think you look great. I have an Ann Taylor nearby so I'm checking out Angie's recommendation. Probably still have to order online, as they usually don't carry tall's in the store. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285839 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 17:17:05 +0000 Sveta 285839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Celia, I will have a look. I do not hold my breath though as they do not come in different lengths and I suspect would be too short for me (I need at least 34" for the heels). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285835 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 17:10:30 +0000 celia 285835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Sveta, Gap _Canada also has this ones<br /> <a href="http://www.gapcanada.ca/browse/product.do?cid=48607&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=804170" rel="nofollow">http://www.gapcanada.ca/browse.....pid=804170</a><br /> <a href="http://www.gapcanada.ca/browse/product.do?cid=48607&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=818199" rel="nofollow">http://www.gapcanada.ca/browse.....pid=818199</a><br /> have you tried them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285823 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 16:35:40 +0000 Sveta 285823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I understand that you advice me to return these Long and Lean from Gap as they do not work for me, right?<br /> Now where can I find wider and looser flared leg jeans in Canada? I have tried trouser jeans from BR in my regular jeans size (10) but they were too small and they do not have size 12 online. I can check in my local store if they have my size but I am not even sure those jeans are wide and loose enough... Too bad AT is not here...:-(<br /> Any other expert suggestions where can I look? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285794 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 15:49:27 +0000 Angie 285794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Sveta. You can pull off a wider and looser flared leg and that's my recommendation. Will be fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285752 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 14:45:01 +0000 Lynne 285752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Ann Taylor denim trousers look lovely...and long and leans are my preference above...I don't understand the fading on the back? Louise posted some recently that were similar - a new trend, perhaps? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285717 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 09:09:38 +0000 rute 285717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go for a more dark wash and a wider leg! You seem tall and slim, you'll look lovely in wide leg jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285652 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 04:30:45 +0000 Anonymous 285652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think trousers are supposed to fit differently than jeans, but you have the figure to look fantastic in either one. Of your jeans my vote goes to the first style. The AT trousers would be stunning on you too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285646 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 04:21:08 +0000 Sveta 285646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, Angie, they do not have stores in Canada :-(<br /> Do you mean I need something looser fitting in the bum and thigh area? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285645 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 04:17:12 +0000 Angie 285645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, do you have an Ann Taylor close by? I think you should try these in a tall. FABULOUS. </p> <p><a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=28505&#038;N=1200012&#038;pCategoryId=3939&#038;categoryId=685&#038;Ns=CATEGORY_SEQ_685&#038;loc=TN&#038;defaultColor=Caraway" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/catal.....or=Caraway</a> Wash&amp;defaultSizeType=Regular </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285640 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 04:09:53 +0000 Sveta 285640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marley, me too (I mean confused). I guess as they stretch with wear they should loosen up a bit, maybe?<br /> I was always so shy of tucking into the pants as it seems to me that emphasizes my bum and thighs - something I am not too thrilled about...maybe I have some adjustment to do... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285628 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 03:56:00 +0000 Marley 285628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first ones the best - and I must say, you have the perfect figure for the tucked in look! So fab! I am not sure about the tightness, as I have seen Angie write that she prefers them to be loose - I've been a little confused about what she means by that - loose in the legs, around the thighs? I'm just not sure - but, you look great in these either way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285626 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 03:51:29 +0000 Sveta 285626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did not even noticed that fading on the bum until I looked at the pictures (here more kudos to picture taking habit!)<br /> Renata, I think I would be willing to try a more pronounced flare - anybody has any suggestions? Although i do not wear heels higher that 2.5" - is it a deal breaker for the flares? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285620 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 03:44:59 +0000 Jonesy 285620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm...the fading on those perfect bootcuts is just not ideal....Who exactly would want a perfect, uniformly faded square right on their bum? Who? So, I vote for the first pair (I don't think these look too tight, at least to my eye). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285617 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 03:38:28 +0000 Misia 285617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I think I would like to see you in more of a flare!<br /> But if I have to pick from above, it would be the first pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285612 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 03:30:53 +0000 annagybe 285612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the long and leans. The rear fading on the perfect boot is a deal killer for me. I think the old ones just look kinda classic, not necessarily hip. At the Seattle swap Angie recommended a medium blue wash for me. I'm going to look for a more pronounced flare though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285611 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 03:27:44 +0000 Lisa 285611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahh, well then I vote keep the long and leans that you have here for spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285610 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 03:23:01 +0000 Sveta 285610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, I do not mind whiskering actually: as my hips are balanced by my shoulders they do not look too big. Now thighs are a different matter but there is not whiskering there :-)<br /> I wanted to try a lighter wash as Angie recommended it for the spring... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285590 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 03:00:51 +0000 Lisa 285590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the long and leans over the perfect boots. Did you try these in a darker wash? I find there's less whiskering with my darker wash gap jeans. Just curious. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-flaresbootcuts-bandwagon-opinions-please#post-285581 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 02:51:31 +0000 Sveta 285581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is hard to believe but I do not have a single pair of bootcuts I can wear now. It is especially weird considering that I did not even tried skinnies on until last May.<br /> Explanation is simple: all 3 pairs I owned pre-YLF are too big for me and all new jeans I bought since May were skinnies and leans.<br /> Anyway seeing all this excitement about flares and wide legs I have decided I need to add them too. I have ordered some jeans online and there are 2 pairs which can be a potential "yes".<br /> pic 1-2: Gap Long and Lean's in medium faded wash<br /> pic 3-4 - the same tucked in<br /> pic 5-6 - Gap Perfect Boot in medium wash<br /> pic 7-8 - the same tucked in<br /> Do any of them work for me? Are they too tight - do I need a bigger size?<br /> I am afraid Perfect boot's fading on the butt does not do my rear any favors...:-(<br /> pic 9-11 this is my old pair of bootcuts for the comparison. I think they are too big, especially from the rear, but maybe this is how they suppose to fit now?<br /> Thanks for your help! </p>
