You are not happy now, and if not happy now, you won;t wear them later as you continue to mentally search.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1049049 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 14:55:16 +0000 Amy 1049049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for your input! I think I'd end up unhappy with them in the long run, so will be returning the jeans. I'll have to carve out time to sew some. I know I can make them fit. It would have been nice to have instant gratification though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048946 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 12:23:52 +0000 amiable 1048946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Beth Ann - I think the ripples are due to the stretch, but I don't think they're a big deal. &nbsp;To me, the dark ones look good, and the gray ones look like they're cut a bit off (Beth Ann nails it again, I think). &nbsp;I actually really like the "dowdy" ones you're wearing too, and the chambray is a winner! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048872 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:45:19 +0000 Deborah 1048872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amy, I like the jeans in #1:). They look like a straight leg, or maybe slightly tapered? I think by wearing booties, you will elongate the leg, continuing the line of the jeans and create a more streamlined look.</p> <p>I don't love the grey jeans as much but Amy that's more about me not loving light toned jeans. </p> <p>Chambray shirt looks good.</p> <p>I will send you the measurements of the trouser jeans tomorrow xx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048871 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:27:33 +0000 rute 1048871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both! Lovely fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048860 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:05:25 +0000 Anonymous 1048860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the grey ones! They look great with your new shoes. I like them with the top too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048851 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 09:17:15 +0000 lyn67 1048851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahh, Beth Ann, you put the finger on a bleeding wound! A&nbsp;&nbsp;longer yoke and the&nbsp;too big, low and far placed pockets are my horror parts of some jeans too:-(((. Why, oh why don't they cut smaller, rounder/angled&nbsp;pockets and &nbsp;place them higher and closer on other than premium special&nbsp;jeans, too??? hat's that hard in it????<br />BTW, I think the ink jeans are Ok, but I like the greys better! You have a slim figure Amy, you&nbsp; can&nbsp;&nbsp;wear them pround with some longer tops! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048774 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 04:23:20 +0000 Beth Ann 1048774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amy:&nbsp; I suspect the wrinkling is a result of the stretch content in the fabric, and it doesn't disappear when sizing up.&nbsp; </p> <p>I really like the navy jeans --- the wrinkling is not a big deal here, partly because of the dark color.&nbsp; The camera, btw, tends to grab and enhance the wrinkles.&nbsp; These pants would play so well with your style!&nbsp; I like the grey, although I wish the back didn't have such a long yoke, and the pockets were a tad higher.&nbsp; Since it's all low contrast with no accent stitching, this isn't a deal breaker.&nbsp; I think the grey is fresh and your legs look so amazingly long! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048769 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 04:16:18 +0000 Amy 1048769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Adelfa. Yes, I tried the larger size jeans. They were far too loose. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048768 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 04:15:18 +0000 Adelfa 1048768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the crispness of the flocked fabric may be causing the rippling. If I truly loved the jeans I'd probably try washing them a few times in the hopes that they would soften. Bad advice if you want to return though.</p> <p>Did you try sizing up in the gray jeans? I find that shade of gray to be unforgiving, similar to a white, and I always size up in white.</p> <p>Cute shirt! You'll get a lot of use out of it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return---one-last-attempt-at-jeans#post-1048763 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 04:10:07 +0000 Amy 1048763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was so excited about both of these jeans when I tried them on in the fitting room, but now am having second thoughts. The pictures reveal some fit problems I hadn't noticed. </p> <p>1-4. Blue flocked jeans. These are supposed to be ankle pants. I bought the longs and have to confess that I'm totally in love with the fabric. That may be blinding me to reality.&nbsp;Are they still too short? Is all the sagging and bagging an eyesore? I cannot size down because I like to breathe.&nbsp;</p> <p>2. Grey jeans. Love the color. Again with the sagging and wrinkling...</p> <p>3. Current dowdy jeans</p> <p>4. Chambray shirt - I'm pretty sure I'm keeping this, but if you notice anything really bad, speak up!</p> <p> </p>
