I don't think these are the ones, though. I also think that they are too short and too "pouffy". To me, they look like an ill-fitting short skirt. Please keep looking because the concept is totally you ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-378766 Tue, 05 Jul 2011 18:17:45 +0000 Lori 378766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Angie on returning them. They are beautiful, but not quite the right fit on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-378418 Mon, 04 Jul 2011 22:29:10 +0000 Lisa 378418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your style, now on to more fab things, these darling shorts are just not as fab as other items I've seen you in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377928 Mon, 04 Jul 2011 01:57:53 +0000 annagybe 377928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback. I often get enthralled with the idea of something which in reality isn't so hot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377869 Sun, 03 Jul 2011 21:07:17 +0000 Anonymous 377869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You can do better. I vote return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377841 Sun, 03 Jul 2011 18:49:55 +0000 rae 377841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm, I agree this is more volume in the hips than I'm used to seeing from you... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377833 Sun, 03 Jul 2011 18:29:05 +0000 Janet 377833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the cutouts, but I must confess the cut makes me think of gym shorts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377822 Sun, 03 Jul 2011 18:03:14 +0000 rachylou 377822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The cut outs are cool. Maybe a silky top? Although, I have to say, I think you'd probably pass them up a lot. The choice of - the word eludes me right now - of a band waist strikes me as odd for leather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377812 Sun, 03 Jul 2011 17:47:11 +0000 modgrl 377812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look kind of like pj's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377797 Sun, 03 Jul 2011 17:28:01 +0000 Angie 377797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to be a complete spanner and vote return. Sorry, Anna :(. I find them a tad short and too voluminous in the hip area. </p> <p>I have no doubt that you could make a similar vibe look perfectly sophisticated and edgy. But it starts off with the right pair of leather shorts. And FWIW, to my eye, I don't think they are these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377384 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 18:20:20 +0000 RoseandJoan 377384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know how much you paid for them but in the latest issue of UK Elle there was a street style feature and the lady photographed was wearing leather boxer shorts bought cheaply from....a sex shop LOL. She had them styled with a black blazer and quite classic black pumps and the whole outfit looked a million dollars. It brings another meaning to Angie's leave no retail stone unturned.</p> <p>I also like the idea of a white button down and black monster wedge boots. I think an element of sophistication has to be added to the shorts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377383 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 18:19:14 +0000 Anonymous 377383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As a self proclaimed queen of orphaned bottoms, i advise you to try find some ( at least one) top you like with them and keep them. I suggest maybe a drapey blousey silky top ( short enough not to tuck). I would be awesome with the pants and the gladiators ( which I LOVE) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377382 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 18:19:09 +0000 Anonymous 377382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look like your kind of thing so definitely keep them. I agree with the others on styling them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377375 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 18:04:50 +0000 CocoLion 377375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dressy way they are styled on Shopbop. Almost looks like a skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377374 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 18:04:20 +0000 Mo 377374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second the boxer look with the white tee right now - maybe some different styling would change that but with the shinier texture and waistband fit, it brings prize fighters to mind for me. :/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377372 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 18:01:09 +0000 CocoLion 377372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you have ideas how to style them, as well as items in your closet that go with them, I vote keep. If you can't figure out how to style them with what you've got, I'd return them. I like them with the gladiator sandal/boots but maybe a different top. The white t combined with the shorts makes me think gym. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-leather-shorts#post-377367 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 17:50:20 +0000 annagybe 377367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Impulse purchase on sale. They're by 3.1 Phillip Lim. I got them for much cheaper.</p> <p><a href="http://www.shopbop.com/lantern-sleeve-cardigan-31-phillip/vp/v=1/845524441895516.htm?folderID=2534374302181020&#038;extid=froogle-PHLII20068" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopbop.com/lantern.....PHLII20068</a></p> <p>I love the cut outs but they might be limited as far as wearability. I'd probably do a half tuck, but did a full tuck to show the fit. </p>
