I'm not big on leggings that look like leggings though. Have you seen the Lou &amp; Grey line at Loft by chance? Some nice long tunics there - I've purchased 3 of them I liked them so much to wear over slim pants/jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings/page/2#post-1584572 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 15:42:43 +0000 JAileen 1584572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you're keeping them. I think you have a lot of options. BTW, I love your metallic oxfords, but I agree that these leggings look better with a delicate shoe. </p> <p>I was shocked when you said you were 5'6" - I thought you were 5'10" or so. I don't know why I got it in my head you were so tall! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings/page/2#post-1584518 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 12:23:01 +0000 Elizabeth P 1584518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies!&nbsp; I'm leaning towards keep on these... I think I can make enough outfits work for this year that they won't be orphaned, and will keep them in mind for future purchases... maybe think about looking for a festive tunic top that needs navy leggings.&nbsp; I also got the Sloan 5 pocket leggings in navy, so I'd like a few more navy based tunic tops anyway.</p> <p>Funny how pants like this make you realize the height differences within the forum members... we all look kind of the same in photos.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584488 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 07:46:04 +0000 Greyscale 1584488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them on you! I think the length is fine. On me, they're full length pants and loose around the bottom, which is also fine. (I can't shorten them without also tapering the legs more, so I think I'll leave them.)</p> <p>The rise is definitely higher than I would have expected, though it works perfectly on me, so I can see how it would be less than ideal for many people. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584484 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 07:33:47 +0000 Jeanie 1584484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooooo, these look super cozy! &nbsp;I like #1, 7 and 11. &nbsp;I like the asymmetric top in 11 and I think they work well when the top is close to the body and not too flowy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584461 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 05:31:42 +0000 Deborah 1584461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them:) &nbsp;I had black velvet ones I wore to death a few years back. &nbsp;I love them with those pretty flats and I think they work best with longer and asymmetric hemline.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584455 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 05:01:11 +0000 Suz 1584455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rise too high??? Ha, not on me!!!&nbsp;</p> <p>Anyway, I like them with the booties, too. And the navy asymmetrical sweater.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584450 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 04:27:02 +0000 catgirl 1584450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this length - maybe because nothing is ever this length on me! Mine are past my ankles. I say keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584340 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 22:57:22 +0000 merwoman 1584340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's definitely worth a try-on Elizabeth! The citron was a no-brainer for me - but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the soft pink colour as well. Since it was 50% off sale - I bought both :-)</p> <p>Suz - I really should take some pics - thanks for the wee prod!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584305 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 19:31:29 +0000 Elizabeth P 1584305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I just tried them on again... (can you take a peek? - new combos added to OP).&nbsp; Anyhow, I did notice the leggings doing something weird.&nbsp; Not so much falling down, but it's like the rise is really high in them, so they don't get pulled UP far enough.&nbsp; They definitely felt a bit droopy in the crotch. I think I can live with it though.</p> <p>Merwoman, I love that citron sweater... keep looking at it, in fact.&nbsp; Just wish it were longer.&nbsp; Maybe I'll take another look next time I'm at BR - I DO have another return to do :)&nbsp; </p> <p>Angie, those leggings are FANTASTIC!&nbsp; Four times the price... and black... so not really a substitute, but fantastic nonetheless.&nbsp; Kinda wish I needed black ones </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584301 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 19:00:07 +0000 Suz 1584301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ugh! I am the only woman in the world whose leggings fall down on her all the time. What am I doing wrong, I wonder?&nbsp;</p> <p>Sue, you need to show us these amazing combinations in action. I am tickled with the idea of chartreuse and burgundy!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584295 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 18:28:41 +0000 merwoman 1584295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have these in burgundy - love them!!! I'm 5' 5.5' &nbsp;:-) yes make that .5 count! and find the length is perfect. Am wearing the BR sweaters below - but virtually everything goes with this delicious shade of burgundy. Soft blue and chartreuse in particular are fantastic with these pants.<br />Pants don't fall down...hope the washing is easy care! Am wearing mid calf and short ankle boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584291 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 18:14:58 +0000 Susie 1584291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I&nbsp;ordered these too (like Suz, both the navy and the burgundy) but mine have not arrived yet. And I am only 5' 1" so they will definitely be longer on me. </p> <p>I prefer the looks with the longer tops and #6 is my favorite. And I like them with both pairs of flats. I am less fond of the oxfords as, to me, they read a bit too heavy/casual with the velvet. </p> <p></p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584289 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 17:56:14 +0000 Angie 1584289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them, but have preferred these on clients:&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584211 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 14:05:09 +0000 Suz 1584211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking I might wear mine for winter "loungewear." Ha!&nbsp;</p> <p>In all seriousness....</p> <p>Assuming they don't continue to crawl down on me that is.&nbsp;</p> <p>For indoor shoes I think they look great with the smoking slippers and the fun pointy toes in 6. That's 2 indoor party options right there.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584210 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 14:03:05 +0000 Elizabeth P 1584210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I haven't noticed them sneaking down.&nbsp; I can't say I was walking around much in them though... mainly frantically running back and forth between the camera, the wall, and the pile of tops on the bed :).&nbsp; I'll let you know when I play more tonight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584208 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 13:59:44 +0000 Elizabeth P 1584208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you very much ladies.&nbsp; I am going to try them with booties and some heeled shoes tonight.&nbsp; I don't have a lot of tunic length tops that need/want navy bottoms...it's a fairly new silhouette for me, and all my bottoms to date are black, so have been getting tops with that in mind.&nbsp; Ones that go with navy seem to be more casual.&nbsp; I'll also try my Joie asymmetrical tunic sweater... I think the vibe is a bit casual, but worth a shot.&nbsp; I'd rather not have to buy something to make these work.&nbsp; </p> <p>Colette, I have no doubt they will look good with tall boots... which is how I'd wear them if going out for supper, or even to our work christmas lunch.&nbsp; The problem is (or rather, my struggles are) how to wear them INSIDE, what shoes would I be taking with me to change into... because one doesn't keep boots on inside peoples houses here.&nbsp; Even if it's not snowy.&nbsp; Which I hope it is for Christmas!&nbsp; Or what shoes to wear if I were to wear them for Christmas dinner. </p> <p>I'm going back and forth between "these are too much work" and "but they weren't that expensive and they'll make a nice change".</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584206 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 13:56:44 +0000 Suz 1584206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh. I am living vicariously. Mine arrived yesterday (yeah, on a SUNDAY!!) and I am debating them. Of course they are longer on me. The joys of being 5'4.&nbsp;</p> <p>I prefer them in 2, 4, and 6 because I like the proportions best there.&nbsp;</p> <p>Confession, I actually ordered 2 pair. And I might keep them both. (Burgundy and blue).&nbsp;</p> <p>BUT -- tell me, tell me please...<b>are these sneaking down on you</b>? Even though these are definitely more pant-like than most leggings, when I walk, they do inch down a bit on me. I sized up by one size. Maybe I shouldn't have. Or maybe I should have sized up more. Argh!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584196 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 12:36:12 +0000 Glory 1584196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them on you. I like the length as well. They are perfect for a fancy shoe or for a boot. I also agree that the tail and front are best covered. I vote keep. Fun to wear and a nice holiday option. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584166 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 10:07:53 +0000 lyn67 1584166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep them! My faves are nr 5&amp;6, but looking fab with all of the longer fluid tops and the shoes seen here, depend on the occasion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584140 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 05:30:37 +0000 Marley 1584140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have these leggings - which is kind of a shock, because I am super picky about leggings and haven't worn them the past 3 winters - but I thought I'd try them out again this year and these blue velvet ones seemed kind of fun. &nbsp;So . . . with that being said, I think you need to wear these&nbsp;<i>like</i> leggings and wear them only with tops that are long enough to completely cover the crotch and bum. &nbsp;I like the&nbsp;<i>idea&nbsp;</i>of #7 the best - one long column of color - but want that top to be longer! &nbsp;Also, I really like the v-neckline on you! - speaking as a fellow broad-shouldered girl, I think v-necklines are our friends!<br />As far as shoes go - I think booties, knee-hi boots, or heels look the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584110 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 03:39:05 +0000 Colette 1584110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the length on you but, I like my leggings to hit at or above the ankle bone. And I'm particularly fond of outfits 2 and 6. I say keep. Did you try them with tall or over the knee boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584092 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 02:47:27 +0000 Maneera 1584092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really like them. #2,5,10 are the looks I like best with these leggings. I agree with shevia - treat them as any other leggings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584088 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 02:37:09 +0000 Jaime 1584088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the length with the bare ankle. Once you wear them with boots the photo becomes dark and it is hard to say. I would treat them in leggings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584085 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 02:31:43 +0000 annagybe 1584085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In order of love<br />#1 with the big grey sweater, probably because I'm into big chunky sweaters at the moment. The skin between the loafer and the pant lightens the look. <br />#7 all dark with the bright shoes. Add a bright lipstick and BAM.</p> <p>#2 is very Audrey Hepburn with the button down shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584082 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 02:18:42 +0000 Elizabeth P 1584082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies, I'm going to ponder your responses a bit more before responding fully... am heading to bed now.</p> <p>Just wondering <b>CocoLion,</b> what you meant by sneakers?&nbsp; No sneakers here.&nbsp; I am wearing black sparkly smoking slippers in #1,2 (my fall back "take to someones house to put on when I take my boots off winter shoes" so I'd really want them to work with these if I keep them), and grey patent oxfords in #5,8,9... do they look like sneakers in the photos?&nbsp; In any case, are they the ones you don't see as refined enough?&nbsp; </p> <p><b>Sterling</b>, I'm 5'6".</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584073 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 01:51:14 +0000 Anonymous 1584073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm. &nbsp;I bought these in navy so I know the color is a <u>great color</u>. &nbsp;I loved it.</p> <p>I had to return my pair because they were ridiculously short on me. &nbsp;These appear to be much longer on you. &nbsp;I would have assumed you were wearing a different pant. &nbsp;May I be so bold as to ask your height?</p> <p>I like them on you. &nbsp;The pant length is exactly the same as the stock photo. &nbsp; &nbsp;You look great in numbers 3, 4, 6 and 7. &nbsp;I second the more refined footwear.&nbsp;</p> <p>Now the length. &nbsp;I have problems with judging length on myself and others. &nbsp;I personally prefer full-length, but ankle length are everywhere and some people they look amazing. &nbsp;I will let other forum members provide input on the length.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584068 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 01:32:39 +0000 Anonymous 1584068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the outfit best in 6, the assymetrical top and pointy toe flats. I can't see 3,4 and 7 very well but love the idea of black with dark blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584067 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 01:28:18 +0000 CocoLion 1584067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look cute in 2,4, and 6. I.e. With longer tunics or toppers, and dressy footwear. If wearing with sneakers i would prefer an oversized sweatshirt or bomber jacket. I think they are better with refined footwear though. I always struggle with sneakers and dressy clothes, it's a look I never got used to so keep that in mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gap-velvet-leggings#post-1584062 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 00:56:44 +0000 Peri 1584062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't love them, sorry! Something about the length is bothering me when combined with legging fit. I've seen you in so many things I like better! </p>
