It's an interesting look that I don't think will work on me, so I'll enjoy it vicariously through you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863845 Fri, 01 Mar 2013 01:01:42 +0000 Aida 863845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so glad to hear you are keeping them! I didn't get a chance to chime in and say that I love them on you, and can definitely picture their fluidity in motion. Can't wait to see what else you come up with for these lovelies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863696 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 22:28:59 +0000 Angie 863696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY!!! So glad you're keeping them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863592 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 21:06:07 +0000 Suz 863592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY. I was secretly hoping you would keep. I think they are a special piece and will be loved. There is something truly elegant about them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863485 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 19:40:15 +0000 MNsara 863485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good to hear you're keeping them! I had a hunch that IRL and motion made quite a difference. That's when the fabrics and drape come into play.</p> <p>Lucky you to have such a friend to count on. I love my girlfriends, but seeking style advice from them? probably won't happen! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863447 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 19:14:19 +0000 Anonymous 863447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm very happy to hear that someone was able to give you an IRL opinion, pics can only tell so much!<br /> Enjoy them. They are an extraordinary pair of pants. Dang it, you might have even converted me. missus tailored everything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863443 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 19:10:53 +0000 T-Rex 863443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You made the right decision, I think. I can imagine you pulling these out of the closet years from now, and being glad that you kept them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863438 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 19:01:54 +0000 CocoLion 863438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am happy for you! I think they look better IRL than in pictures, because your friend gave them a YAY vote. Similarly, there are things that look great in pictures, but when you get closer, they just aren't that fab. I have not kept things that the forum has LOVED on me for this reason. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863429 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 18:55:31 +0000 Claudia 863429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I am very happy these will be yours for keeps and worn when required. I wish I had them at my disposal and that they'd look as good on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863425 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 18:52:20 +0000 Tina.b 863425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't believe I'm going to tell you this... I'm keeping them! All your insights really contributed to my decision. Also, my most fashionable friend came over for a visit last night, and gave me an honest assessment. She thought they were super elegant, and more flattering than they should be in reality. She never hesitates to tell me "no" when I need to hear it, and I do the same for her.</p> <p>Are they practical, no. Will I wear them often, no. But truth be told these types are probably pieces I require more in my wardrobe. Statement pieces that make me feel unique. Because I have all the bases covered already (more than once, lol). It would certainly be more practical to buy something I would wear everyday. But how many pairs of jeans does a girl really need?</p> <p>Thank you again, for your collective wisdom!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863176 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 14:58:46 +0000 Raisin 863176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm really liking how 6 and 7 are styled now. And this blue is so pretty, great for,spring, and I don't know that this blue would look good on many people, but it's great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863175 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 14:57:56 +0000 T-Rex 863175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #6, too. It's not just the shape of the clothes, it's the pattern in that jacket. This is a winner. </p> <p>I'm in agreement that the looks I like best out of the bunch you have posted are the ones where you top it off with a blazer. I'm not a fan of any of the tucked in looks, or the bi-level hem. </p> <p>I'd like to see them with a structured, woven shirt. Untucked. I have a feeling that will work, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-863158 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 14:23:08 +0000 Jules 863158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #6. Generally I like them with darker colours, not sure they are working with white or blush. In the end I don't think they are versatile enough for you. Correct me if I'm wrong but my impression is that your pieces are well-chosen, fashion forward &amp; amazing quality but tend to be a bit understated - it's all in the subtle details. Annagybe for example works with a lot of really unique pieces that stand out but I'm not sure that is your vibe. You would know better than me of course - not trying to steer just observe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862961 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 05:13:56 +0000 Marley 862961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE these on you! They are so interestingly detailed - the color is great - and your body can easily pull off this style. I hope you keep them and enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862953 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 04:53:10 +0000 annagybe 862953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 'em. But also I'm Queen Whackadoodle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862944 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 04:41:37 +0000 lynne 862944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Missvee took the words right out of my mouth (or fingers). If they look fabulous in motion, as you say, keep. When you wear them IRL you'll be moving, not posing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862843 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 03:11:02 +0000 Jaime 862843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is tricky. My first thought is that they are good but they are not as good as your amazing toppers - and shouldn't you hold out for that standard? I do love #6 though. This is a tough one - I guess you should picture a situation when you would wear them and think whether you would grab these or something else. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862759 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 02:20:50 +0000 missvee 862759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are absolutely something that I would never buy for myself, but I have to say I really like them on you, especially with the untucked tops and the blazers. They are a great colour and I love the architectural elements of them. How much wear would you get out of them? Are they something you could wear to work, or would they be part of your dressier capsule? And most importantly, how do you feel wearing them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862676 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 01:22:29 +0000 Diana 862676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the last two looks you posted a lot more! I think they're too high waisted for the full tuck. </p> <p>My gut feeling though is that these will be HARD to style and could very easily become orphans... I think a lower rise would make them a lot easier to work with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862667 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 01:17:07 +0000 catgirl 862667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look fab with the short untucked tops! I am waffling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862661 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 01:11:25 +0000 Thistle 862661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I first saw these, and yes, I think they make your hips look wider. </p> <p>I love the color. I love the drape. I am a pear shape and am biased against looking wider on the bottom.</p> <p>If you don't feel fab in them, I would return them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862592 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 00:20:21 +0000 Nicole D 862592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First impression: width. Then they grew on me. Then I wanted to ask the pants out for dinner. They look brilliant with a jacket. Very edgy for SK, or just about anywhere, really. I don't think they would have the same impact on a darker colour. Keep and enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862577 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 00:06:43 +0000 siniestra 862577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>checker ones and white on white are my fab the other ones not so much...no woman want to look wide ...but i think if u know how to balance it like the other i like ....will be amazing ...(sorry) if i sound harsh but umm the internet sometimes have a different imaginary tone...im telling u sincerely </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862572 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 00:00:15 +0000 Raisin 862572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tina, the slouchy pocket pants are the ones I have pinned too. Hey can you show us them in action sometime? Or if you already did and I missed it just direct me to your post. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862493 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 23:01:17 +0000 Anonymous 862493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still like them: They look believable on you, they are fluid, The color is different, you have the frame for them, and I don't see the widening issue as a biggie, your frame can take the exageration, but, BUT, if you are still having doubts, I'd say return. I always err on the side of return.</p> <p>I really don't think that generally speaking, pleated pants work with a full tuck in, you know, unless you are a accentuated IT. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants/page/2#post-862489 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 22:59:00 +0000 Claudia 862489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What bj1111 said. </p> <p>I love the light color blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants#post-862485 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 22:55:34 +0000 bj1111 862485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>tina, i think they are really figure flattering with a cutting edge silhouette. especially in the last two looks that you posted. i'm not sure i would wear them with tucked in tops but short untucked tops are so great. that last shirt with the pants is awesome. so loose and summery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants#post-862479 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 22:51:54 +0000 Tina.b 862479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Raisin, I have the Phillip Lim slouchy pocket pants (something like that) in navy blue. They are more dropped crotch than these and a lot easier to wear. And I have a pair of Alexander Wang track pants, similar idea. </p> <p>Overall I like the colour, though a tough silhouette to wear in this colour. </p> <p>Those of you that raised questions on the size, you are definitely on to something. They are exactly the right size, but there is something about them that feels both too small and too large at once. They are weird pants! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants#post-862399 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 21:19:54 +0000 Jules 862399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey we WANT more photos Hurry up already! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pastel-wrap-pants#post-862384 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 21:04:31 +0000 Tina.b 862384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I so enjoyed reading the debate these pants have illicited. I had a feeling that there would be mixed reviews. And I do so appreciate each of you chiming in with your thoughtful and honest critiques. Seriously, you guys are amazing.</p> <p>I went back and read what I initially wrote about the pants, maybe I was too harsh. Though I am leaning toward return, i'm still undecided. Because there is something I do love about them. The shape is amazing, I like the view from the side. And they look good in motion. </p> <p>But they aren't figure flattering. LOL, I may never be able to unsee the parentheses (love that!). Oddly though I felt quite good in them. And I do like to wear things that are different. But these are fairly different for my little part of the world.</p> <p>I'm going to try styling them a couple other ways. Hope you can bear more photos. Sorry I'm a super pain. I'm a freakishly decisive person about 95% of the time. </p>
