LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-480165 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 16:31:45 +0000 Freckles 480165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to the party. Drat, I keep losing my post as I go back to the pictures.</p> <p>Stunningly gorgeous!</p> <p>When I saw Angie's blog post on plaid and sparkly I mutter no...don't see this one but Jonesy you have totally converted me.</p> <p>Each outfit is absolutely gorgeous. I kept flipping back to the pictures to pick a favourite but I totally couldn't.</p> <p>I think you could wear these to death and in a much more casual affair than you're thinking.</p> <p>Perfection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-480130 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 15:06:37 +0000 Jonesy 480130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone, for more support for the sparkly! Any dissenters out there?</p> <p>Ana, no, not sequin harem pants :). These are a bit more understated!</p> <p>Anna, Suz, Scarlet, and Astrid, thanks for the plaid support! This is a polarizing look, but it *does* have its fans! Suz, I will have to contemplate wearing a skirt with these, per your daughter's suggestions. I remember I did see some of that in the fall designer shows--your daughter is very avant garde!</p> <p>Vicki, Una, Parsley, San, Kellygirl, Kyle, Ornella, and Anne, thanks for your comments! Ornella, yes I guess the snowstorm did help me out in terms of these pants :). Funny. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-480070 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 12:35:05 +0000 Astrid 480070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look fabulous on you! If anybody can rock them it's you. I like all the outfits shown, but my favourite is the one with the plaid shirt, especially with the necklace and bangles in #9! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-480069 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 12:27:49 +0000 anne 480069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great pants and outfits. I like them all except the plaid, but then I am a late adopter so in 2 years I'll probably think they are fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-480046 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 09:09:16 +0000 Ornella 480046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One thing: YAY for the storm that changed your plans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-480038 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 07:59:43 +0000 Scarlet 480038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YOU MUST KEEP THESE AND WEAR THEM ALL THE TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!</p> <p>love your hair too!</p> <p>ETA: now I read the other comments and want to make it clear I LOVE ALL of the outfits, everyone better than the next. I really like the plaid. Man this has blown me out of the water this morning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-480029 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 07:29:29 +0000 AJ 480029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those sparkly pants are seriously taking your style mojo to celestial heights!! </p> <p>Do not allow these pants to become an orphan, ever! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-479944 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 03:14:37 +0000 Kyle 479944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stop wondering.

I have been called away JUST as I hit on this thread four times today. And WOW, look what I was missing! I think you need tickets to that Bowie ball that Modgrl's going to. You look unbelievable in these pants! I can see you are keeping them, and thank goodness you are, because if you didn't, I might just have to recommend that you see a doctor. </p> <p>I adore every one of these outfits but my absolute favourite is the one with the plaid. I wish I were going to one of your parties. Would love to see this in person! </p> <p>I also adore the one with the ink blue and the sweater for an evening out with friends. So understated yet sexy and fun. And the tree shirt!!!!!! Unbelievably great. </p> <p>By the way, in case you are interested in styling advice from a 12 year old, my daughter (who was watching over my shoulder) also thinks they would be great with a skirt on top. Mmmm. I don't think you really want to hide that rear view. But to each her own! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-479788 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 23:07:30 +0000 kellygirl 479788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are a ROCK star! OMG, you are stunning in all of these! My fave is the Tibi blouse and the plaid but they are all so amazing on you! I think you will get a lot of use out of these! LOVE them : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-479643 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:46:42 +0000 san 479643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so glad you decided to keep these fab pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-479618 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:30:33 +0000 Parsley 479618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, my! These are some DYNAMITE outfits with those fabulous pants! They look way too good on you to even consider not keeping them!</p> <p>And I am head-over-heels in love with that Tree printed top! That look is among my all-time favorites EVER!</p> <p>But every single one of these is incredible. And I'm so jealous of your gorgeous hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-479611 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:22:53 +0000 catgirl 479611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are ridiculously fantastic on you!

And thanks for posting a Jonesy outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants/page/2#post-479579 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:50:56 +0000 Vicki 479579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There's Jonesy! I always enjoy your comments and saw your garden photos, but now I'm seeing you and what an amazing introduction! These pants are an obvious keeper and you've proved your case. They work everywhere: casual, holiday work party, ballet, any concert, art gallery, etc. You wear them well and your butt looks great. I adore that Tibi top, #5-9 and #1-2. Really, it's hard to pick, because they look so good with so many things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479557 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:33:17 +0000 annagybe 479557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>With the plaid, seriously AMAZING. But all are great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479554 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:31:48 +0000 Ana 479554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I first read your description, all I could imagine were sequined harem pants, lol. Then I saw the photos. I'm so glad you're keeping these. I LOVE them on you! Great outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479551 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:30:14 +0000 Jonesy 479551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479549 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:29:03 +0000 Sveta 479549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I like the idea of dog walking in these glam trousers! Just think of them as a safety device reflecting the light at night...Perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479544 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:24:33 +0000 Jonesy 479544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You guys are the greatest, uh, enablers ever!! You've convinced me about their versatility--maybe I could wear them sledding or dog walking too :)? Thanks for all of your comments. </p> <p>Angie, you are too kind and generous! Thank you for the K ttpo K rating, and the sweet comment about my new haircut and my different looks. I am definitely digging these new trouser silhouettes right now--fun!</p> <p>Sarah, you're right--life is not just about work! Thank you for your all caps enthusiasm.</p> <p>MaryK, we *would not* want the angels to weep, now would we?</p> <p>Cheryl and alaMode, yes, I think these will be reasonably versatile! I am going to make myself wear them lots.</p> <p>CJ, yes, I see what you are saying about the plaid pairing. I was joking around about this outfit being everyone's favorite, because Angie did a blog post recently featuring sequins and plaid and the vast majority of commentators really, really didn't like the combo! But I was one of the few who did (along with Jean and ETA Isis, I can see--waving to Jean and Isis!--I think this one is my fave too).</p> <p>Thank you, Debora, Morethanbeige, Amy, Nakidra, Amyreh, Trinity, Mochi, Shannon, Alicat, and Goldenpig! I appreciate your input.</p> <p>Sveta, please don't cry :)! Your special sparkly friends (or special white denim friends) might be waiting just around the corner for you to discover them! Fit can be really, really hard with pants.</p> <p>Malina, I want to see some outfit pics of your satin pants! Chop chop!</p> <p>Kappy, you could totally rock a buttoned up look! Let's see it!</p> <p>Bella, I totally agree with your comments about these pants' likely longevity. I will be content if they are looking good for a year or two, then I can shelve them until the next time around!</p> <p>Janet, you could totally rock sparkly pants, are you kidding me?</p> <p>Thanks, Captain Angie and Team YLF! You have "normalized" sparkly pants for me and now I will be taking off the tags! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479529 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:06:22 +0000 Isis 479529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, great great pants! I actually think you'll get a fair amount of use out of them. While you may not wear them lecturing, you can wear them to parties and other fun events!</p> <p>I love all the outfits, but I particularly love the menswear vibe of 1/2 and I LURVE outfit #8!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479514 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:47:57 +0000 Janet 479514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, are you even asking this question? They look amazing! I love the whole outfit in 5/6. </p> <p>I never ever thought I'd even consider sparkly trousers, but if anything could make me change my mind, these pics would be it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479505 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:38:26 +0000 goldenpig 479505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KEEP! Wow, you're an absolute rock star! You and Janet should start a rock band together! Who knew sparkly pants could be so versatile? Love 5/6 especially! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479503 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:35:09 +0000 Anonymous 479503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look incredible, of course you must keep! #5 has me swooning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479501 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:33:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 479501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HOLY CRAP JONESY!!! You look AMAZING! All of these outfits work - you have such a definitive style that works for you! I'm kinda jealous of your fabulousness!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479491 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:14:50 +0000 Mochi 479491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a rockin' figure and you look like you have so much fun with your clothes. THAT is what I like to see--pure enjoyment and joy in dressing up or down. Great accessorizing and great smile! Someone's got to be able to pull off the look of these trousers (and it certainly ain't me), so kudos to you for doing it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479463 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 17:47:38 +0000 bella 479463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These pants look fantastic on you. I am so happy to hear that you decided to give them another chance. #4-5 is simply divine. I honestly think that this is not a classic pair of pants, that you can wear for the next 10 years. It will look dated at some point, (and will come into style most likely again in another 5 years), but who cares? My advice is if you can afford them, just keep them and wear that outfit every chance you got this year, until they go out of style or you start getting bored. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479461 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 17:46:14 +0000 trinity 479461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! You ROCK those trousers. #4, 5, and 7 are my favs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479451 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 17:38:03 +0000 amyreh 479451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If anyone can pull these off it's you! Wow! So fun and you really make them work with all of these outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-case-of-the-sparkly-pants#post-479446 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 17:35:43 +0000 Nakidra 479446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HOORAY!!!
