There's no doubt at all about keeping them!<br />Too bad about the wool sweatpants; they are kind of disappointing. Thanks for saving me a futile order. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348138 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 21:57:15 +0000 viva 1348138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all.</p> <p><b>Texstyle</b>, that black lace top is a JCrew from several years ago. It's got longevity - I really love it. </p> <p><b>Lisa</b>, that is our still-unfinished deck on our house, and that is our backyard, which is not too bad. Ringed by woods, which include wild blueberry bushes. UO is really a store for my daughters (your 18 year old will love it) but it can occasionally be the spot for me.</p> <p><b>Angie</b>, taking pictures is almost impossible when the furboys are around! They always want to be in the shot!!&nbsp; You are so wise - I have tried the Reid and really like them. I will probably get a pair this fall or winter, just not sure what wash.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348125 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 21:45:42 +0000 Staysfit 1348125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also tried the JCrew wool sweat pants and didn't love them. Too short, awkward fit, but I didn't find them itchy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348099 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 20:37:18 +0000 Diana 1348099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans are superb.&nbsp; Agree with you about the sweatpants just being meh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348094 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 20:30:43 +0000 Tanya 1348094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jeans, and I think you styled them perfectly.&nbsp; they fit you beautifully.<br />Agreed on the sweatpants.&nbsp; They don't wow me either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348091 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 20:22:29 +0000 Anonymous 1348091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep those jeans!! &nbsp; I like all three pics here - and really love the last look. &nbsp;Hi to your little pups - so cute! &nbsp;And is that your home, or your cottage/cabin? &nbsp;What a beautiful yard you have!</p> <p>Sorry for all the gushing exclamation marks, but these jeans suit you really well.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have those sweats in my shopping cart - not really loving them on you either. &nbsp;They don't look baggy or drapy enough or something. &nbsp;And if they're itchy? &nbsp;Forget it.</p> <p>Urban Outfitters is finally opening a store here soon - looking forward to checking them out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348080 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 19:58:35 +0000 texstyle 1348080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Ingunn said ;-). They look great and I love your various stylings! Wondering where you found the black lace tee...love that too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348073 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 19:54:19 +0000 Janet 1348073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I think the jeans look amazing on you! I love the fit -- easy without being baggy.</p> <p>Yeah, the sweatpants are not worthy. I tried a pair that Una linked to from Old Navy and decided they weren't worth it either.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348071 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 19:53:28 +0000 Angie 1348071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the new jeans. Gorgeous.</p> <p>Btw, I just tried <b>J.Crew's new Reid Fit Jeans.</b> You should try them too. They look similar to these. They were too high rise for me - I do prefer a lower rise - but I have a feeling you might like them:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.jcrew.com/ca/womens_category/denim/PRDOVR~B0136/B0136.jsp">https://www.jcrew.com/ca/women...../B0136.jsp</a></p> <p>Your fur babies are adorable. Love them extra for me. LOVING your hair. The patchy blonde streaks are fably current.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348065 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 19:47:40 +0000 Ingunn 1348065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like them a lot, Viva. You look fab both from the front and back, which isn't always the case with bf's. I think they have just enough slouch and I love all your stylings. Definitely a keeper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348060 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 19:43:37 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1348060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Skargorn jeans a lot. I am not a fan of most boyfriend jeans because I think they look so bulky and baggy; these have the looseness without the excess.&nbsp;My only negative thought is that the rolled cuff looks very bulky; perhaps this is due to the stiffness of the fabric. I think they work well in all the outfits you've chosen ... you could pretty much roll for a week just with that set.</p> <p>I don't care for those sweatpants at all and agree with your decision to return them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-skargorn-thorn-jeans-and-the-jcrew-gray-wool-sweatpants#post-1348054 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 19:32:36 +0000 viva 1348054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I received the Skargorn thorn jeans, which were inspired by the picture Ummlila posted below. I don't really know what's happening with me style-wise right now, kind of in a funky whirlwind .... but I am attracted to the inherent French-ness of this look, plus its American edge: dark rinse jeans, slight roll, pumps, white blouse, tough belt. </p> <p>I went looking for jeans to help me replicate it.</p> <p>These Skargorn Thorn jeans (thanks, Anna) are from Urban Outfitters and may do it. What do you think?</p> <p><b>Pros:</b> dark(er) rinse -- really nice black-blue color, thinner, crisper weight than my Nikkis, no holes, slightly higher rise than my other jeans (so different from them), nice looseness on the legs, fits my flat butt surprisingly well.<br /><b>Cons: </b>largish on the waist (not a big issue, but definitely a belt), similar cut to Nikkis (but not identical), slightly lighter on the thighs (should I wait for a completely dark pair?).</p> <p>I could possibly wear them lower on the hips, which some might suggest, but because of the higher rise and stiffer material, it might be less comfortable because of a lot of material in the crotch.</p> <p>I've tried them here with three different looks: rolled (a little too high for me, DD did it) with pumps and button-down; with sneakers and dalmatian top; with one big cuff, heeled booties, and black lace tee; and tucked into Frye harness booties with black crepe bomber.</p> <p><b>Keep or return?</b></p> <p>I'm also including a pic of the JCrew gray wool sweatpants, which I am <b>definitely returning</b>. They are fine but I just am not wowed. Not very flattering. Slightly itchy at waistband and on thighs, though material is softer than I expected. Meh. </p>
