It still has the tag on, haha -- I need to iron it. I ended up with size M; I like the oversize fit but might get it shortened. I'm between 6 and 8 for pants, and I tried both sizes on. The 6 fit, but like a true high-waisted pant without slouch. Kinda scary. I way prefer the fit of the 8, as you can see, so I think a 6 will work great for you.</p> <p>Kalli: I love your description, "ready to take on the world in a nonchalant way" :)</p> <p>Claudia: Yeah, I think I prefer these to the Leiths too. Thanks for the feedback!</p> <p>Charmian: I think I will get the hemmed a bit on the long side so I can roll them up for certain looks.</p> <p>Suz: I got a chuckle out of Shannon's DH too :)</p> <p>CK: Yeah, from the feedback here these pants definitely need some styling and attitude, or else they become a uniform of sorts (not in a good way).</p> <p>Una: Heh, I had to go to Theory to find the look By the way, you kind of led me to Theory because of your great Theory pieces!</p> <p>Echo: My SO, who took the photos, wanted me to get in all these goofy poses :)</p> <p>Kelly: I'm so paranoid about wearing red top and khaki bottoms; I'm afraid I might do that accidentally the one day I go to Target... ;)</p> <p>Rae: Perhaps another pair of khakis might work for you... ?</p> <p>Marley: Interesting about the waist thing! They are listed as high-waisted pants (10.5") rise, and in size 6 that's what the look like. But this size they hit about 2" below my belly button. And I promise not to wear with a black tee at Best Buy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870748 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:27:35 +0000 Marley 870748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look like a good fit on you. My first thought was that you needed to pull them down just a bit so that they weren't so high on your waist, but then I clicked on the link and saw that they are supposed to be high-waisted. I LOVE them with the blouse and the sandals - and really don't love them with the t-shirt (it looks too much like a Best Buy employee uniform!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870742 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:26:03 +0000 rae 870742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love with the button front! Bah, now I'm sad I returned my Gap khakis. Keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870740 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:25:32 +0000 kellygirl 870740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these in all iterations. I think the shiny fabric and the fit make them look so cool and not at all uniform-ish. Just don't wear a red polo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870739 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:22:51 +0000 Echo 870739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Anna about the first pics, but you look great is 4, 5 and 6! With that top and shoes the slouch looks intentional and I love the attitude in the poses (and the hat, too!)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870737 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:20:04 +0000 catgirl 870737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOOOOOOOOOOOVE. I look for this kind of fit (unsuccessfully, I might add) at the thrift store all the time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870733 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:16:13 +0000 Beth Ann 870733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great styling and lots of fun! Khakis are making a comeback, and styled this way they have lots of panache! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870720 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 23:57:28 +0000 CK 870720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's all in the styling with these. They look great in 4,5 and 6. Great hat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870715 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 23:48:59 +0000 Suz 870715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These? Are totally awesome on you. LOVE!!! </p> <p>You are so adorable in that hat. Chuckling at Shannon's comment. Her hubby is right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870638 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 22:42:20 +0000 Jenava 870638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870604 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 21:58:55 +0000 Charmian 870604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally adore the poses in 4/5/6, you crack me up!</p> <p>Are you planning on rolling/cuffing the khakis, or letting them pool messily at your feet? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870502 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 20:20:38 +0000 Claudia 870502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep! I prefer these on you to the Leiths. Love them styled with the blouse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870492 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 20:00:51 +0000 Kalli 870492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The attitude that goes the slouch, not looking sloppy to my eyes is quite fitting. Ready to take on the world in a nonchalant way. I dig the way it's styled in with the blouse but not the shirts in photos 1-3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870487 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 19:57:45 +0000 Kristin SF 870487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK you look fantastic, is that your new Equipment blouse? What size blouse did you end up with? Love the hat, I think these pants work for you!!</p> <p>And are you sizing up in these trousers, I love them on you and the slouch is perfect. I have some Nordstrom notes and these pants are calling my name. I'm between a 4 and a 6, do you think a 6 would give me similar slouch?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870474 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 19:47:36 +0000 Jules 870474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As styled in 4/5/6 I love them, definitely reads as intentional and a cohesive vibe - love your poses too! I agree that with a simple t outfit, your style is not shining through so it's harder to tell that the fit is intentional. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870471 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 19:45:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 870471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the fit of these Cciele - and they are slightly different from the other slouchy silhouettes we've seen, which is part of what I like. The colour is very versatile, the taper at the ankle is perfect IMO and the length is spot on. Love them with the cobalt blouse and hat - my hubby would say you look like a "sexy private investigator" - lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870468 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 19:43:40 +0000 Mo 870468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with Anna. #6 is too much fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870465 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 19:41:46 +0000 Anonymous 870465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look intentionally slouchy and not sloppy. The tone I think would work well, it looks nice with that blouse. Hat is fun </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870464 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 19:41:22 +0000 annagybe 870464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them more with the blue button down and sandals. T-shirt and boots reads as a uniform to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slouchy-pants-are-khakis#post-870459 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 19:37:37 +0000 cciele 870459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never been a khakis gal, having considered it too prep for my style.</p> <p>I tried on a whole lot of black slouchy baggy track etc pant styles (too-long Leith pants, I'm looking at you) and had just about given up on finding a pair of work-appropriate slouchy trousers. But then I saw these and dug the super masculine fit:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/theyskens-theory-padate-fuku-pants/3402330" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/th.....ts/3402330</a></p> <p>IRL they have a silky sheen and veer on the gold side of khaki. Great fabric and construction, but what about the fit? Are they stylishly slouchy in a masculine way or just too big/blah? The crotch point is about 2-3" below my actual crotch.</p> <p>Hat was an afterthought </p>
