I have straight black/black jeans/pants on my wish list for the fall, and your look like they might fit the bill. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650720 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 02:42:01 +0000 Vicki 650720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, wow, wow! GAP Really Skinny Pants are the rage here and who knew? Obviously, I didn't! Thank you, for the photos, Aida, and the brand names, everyone! This really helps to narrow my search. Inge, we are always on the same page and I love that! cjh, thanks for the link and I totally agree with you on your definition of the leg-defining differences. Very nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650426 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 21:05:23 +0000 cjh 650426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about these? I have this maker and fabric pants in a boot cut and they are so comfortable and good quality. I would probably shorten this pair if they were really this long on me, to be more ankle length, like the ones in the first link.</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/michael-michael-kors-ponte-straight-ankle-pant-black?zfcTest=fw:1" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/michael-.....cTest=fw:1</a></p> <p>Oh, and as to the original question on the difference between skinny legs and cigarette pants. I would say, in my book, skinny legs are like the ones with the dotty peplum top, and Angie's and the ones I linked to, where the shape of the leg is seen all the way down. And cigarette pants are like the ones you linked to, where the fabric doesn't skim in and show the shape at the knees, etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650411 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 20:53:55 +0000 Inge 650411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! We are looking for the same thing, Vicki. Thanks for asking the question. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650409 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 20:52:14 +0000 merwoman 650409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No pics, but I'll chime in on the Gap Real Skinny pants - love them. Bought them last August. Hold their shape really well - I am careful to wash in cold water and air dry.<br /> Also have the Gaps Black Cord (thin wale - almost like velvet) jean legging - these are divine, and very flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650284 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 19:15:22 +0000 Aida 650284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll second the GAP Really Skinny Pants, I also have those though in a shorter length than Angie's. They are super! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650202 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 18:13:06 +0000 Meredith1953 650202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the Levi Demi-Curve skinnies in black and have been enjoying them. They have a lower rise than I really want so I am going to try to find some mid rise ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650188 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 17:59:27 +0000 Angie 650188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I gave my BR Martins away years ago. They can't compare to these in my opinion. Much better fit and fabric quality. One is from the Gap (Real Skinny) and the other from BR. </p> <p>Vicki, I like the description of cigarette pants too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650172 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 17:35:36 +0000 MsMary 650172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They may be shorter than you like, but I LOVE my J Crew Minnies in black wool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650142 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 16:59:27 +0000 Vicki 650142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for these leads, friends! Your photos make me want to look now, Angie, but I'll use patience and wait for that shopping window! In the meantime, I'll peek at the BR Martins and see how they fit on me. What are Maarting pants, Sveta? I'm guessing skinnies and cigarette pants are the same and even though I don't smoke, I like the name cigarette pants better, because they seem to have a history to them when said like that and I can think of all the great women who wore them in earlier decades! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650110 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 16:25:26 +0000 Sveta 650110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, are they both Gap Real Skinny?<br /> I have BR Martin in black - unfortunately Gap ones did not work for me. Too bad Maarting have to retire until fall - too hot in them now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650097 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 16:10:27 +0000 Angie 650097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have two pairs! I love my dressy black cigarette trousers! See pics below. </p> <p>I suspect we will see lots of these in stores from Sept to Feb, Vicki. That's when I bought mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650062 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 15:34:01 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 650062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a coincidence. I pinned that same outfit on my pinterest account a day or two ago.</p> <p>I bought a pair of slim black pants at Jones New York store about a month ago. They came in beige too but the black was nicer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650060 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 15:32:22 +0000 Diana 650060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Would the old favorite BR Martin skinnies work here? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650059 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 15:30:55 +0000 Transcona Shannon 650059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second Claire's recommendation. I don't have them but I've seen the Gap Really Skinny in black and they are quite nice. Definitely worth trying on in any case. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650055 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 15:28:46 +0000 Anonymous 650055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried the Gap Really Skinny Pants in black (for work) but they had a pretty casual vibe. Do you remember the post Angie did on a client (back in the fall) who sported black skinny dress pants as part of an office-appropriate suit? I'm pretty sure they were woven and they looked kind of silky (not stretchy and clingy). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-black-skinny-leg-dress-pants#post-650042 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 15:16:05 +0000 Vicki 650042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This whole outfit is really cute, but I'm wondering where to find some nice skinny leg dress pants. btw, what's the difference between skinny leg and cigarette pants?
