KILLER. Your hubs can live in peace with your BF. What a solid relationship you have </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-695246 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 12:26:57 +0000 Suz 695246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Marley - you made my day with that! </p> <p>I am pretty sure these won't stretch out. They are so baggy that I can't imagine what would be pressuring them to stretch! The only place there is any snugness is on the calf. </p> <p>Thanks, everyone! I think my solution is to keep BOTH pairs. I'll wear the bigger ones, but DD can have the 4s...and if I can ever sneak them off her, I can wear those, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-695115 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 04:28:12 +0000 MNsara 695115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote to keep the bigger pair (pics 1-3) because they are very different from your original pair. </p> <p>I think I saw that your Citrine style is 100% cotton, so maybe stretching during wear won't be an issue.</p> <p>Too cute about your DD and DH! How nice to have supporters </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-695102 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 04:18:14 +0000 Marley 695102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go all the way with the boyfriend in pics 1 - 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-695030 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 02:28:36 +0000 nancylee 695030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My eye is still adjusting to the BF look, so these all look great to me. Sounds like you've gotten a lot of good advice here. I'd say you win whichever one you keep, but the baggier pair seems to elicit more love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-694989 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 01:48:00 +0000 Jonesy 694989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the baggier pair and I disagree with you: I actually think they are very figure flattering!! You look fab! Let your daughter have the smaller BF :). Hubby has a good eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-694986 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 01:45:47 +0000 Jaime 694986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, I started getting confused reading the comments, but I think I am with the overwhelming consensus that says the pair in the first 3 pictures are a MUST KEEP! I love that your daughter wants your jeans though. My daughters want everything I wear - luckily nothing fits 7 year olds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-694926 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 00:59:59 +0000 Anonymous 694926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 2 sizes up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-694922 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 00:56:31 +0000 Freckles 694922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Suz, you answered what I was asking but didn't write down in the question.</p> <p>Number one all the way then... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-694914 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 00:50:12 +0000 Gaylene 694914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From someone who isn't on the boyfriend bandwagon, I actually like the first pair on you. I think the reason I like them better is because the bagginess looks deliberate. The smaller pair looks like you are not so comfortable with the baggy look and are trying to hedge your bets. So, go all the way baggy is my vote.</p> <p>And that sweater is fantastic. Such a pretty color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-694902 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 00:41:27 +0000 Suz 694902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here is what I feel: it is NOT figure flattering. I truly understand that. Especially on a short-legged, high waisted person like me. </p> <p>On the other hand, it is SUPER comfortable, and has an ease and je ne sais quoi that I love. I have always enjoyed loose trousers of all kinds, and especially jeans. </p> <p>Jeans fit my lifestyle better than any other article of clothing, hands down, so I feel it is fair for me to purchase them in whatever styles tickle my fancy. Given that I wear the darn things so often, I don't want to confine myself to one cut or style or colour; I want a variety. </p> <p>I have worn baggy jeans over the years in a number of incarnations. I quite like these ones for their taper. Oddly, I like the look with cuffs more than without; I think that is because cuffing creates a sharper taper, and it is the taper that seems to make it wearable for me. So, if I wear with boots, I'll wear with my Doc Marcies, cuffed, rather than rolled down all the way as in photo 4. I don't care for that look as much at all, and if I want full length, I will go with my BR boyfriends or my straight legs or other skinnies or Long and Leans. </p> <p>Not sure if that answers your question, Freckles, but thank you for helping me think it through. It's not so much loving the LOOK as loving the FEEL. They evoke something for me. I love menswear and tomboy and androgynous style of all kinds. So.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-694862 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 00:22:13 +0000 Freckles 694862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz how do you feel about the look on you? Do you really love it or just like it as it is a new look?</p> <p>Adore your new sweater, the colour is fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do/page/2#post-694855 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 00:17:37 +0000 Suz 694855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all...</p> <p>Mona, can't wait to see yours! They will arrive soon, I predict! </p> <p>Krish, in photo 10 I am wearing the Banana Republic slouchy skinny from their Heritage collection, purchased two winters ago just after my weight loss. I actually love those jeans; they are super fun. Snugger than the Gap sexy boyfriends, but still baggy in places. They were a lucky sale find. But I admit I hesitate to wear them sometimes because of the obvious distressing. It has to be the right environment. </p> <p>Claire, you are right - it could be money-saving to share with DD - except I'm betting she will never take them off... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694805 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 23:33:28 +0000 Jjsloane 694805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both - they give you different looks (both you are ROCKING) Can I say you are the first to look amazing in the rear view in the super slouchy pair. No wonder your hubby gave them the thumbs up. Tell DD "get your own" (kidding - you can share? mine is 4 so not there yet but my son and I are almost the same shoe size) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694787 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 23:15:28 +0000 krishnidoux 694787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jumping in late - as usual! You look absolutely gorgeous in Boyfried jeans, and your choice of footwear is right on.</p> <p>I personally prefer the all-the-way slouch from the first pair on you.<br /> Which one are you wearing in 10? It looks great. </p> <p>I also got myself a pair of Gap Sexy BF "1969", a size up from what I usually fit. I love them! Been wearing them all the time lately. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694750 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 22:40:59 +0000 Anonymous 694750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If this wasn't the YLF forum I would totally think this was a love triangle question!!! I have got to get yall's lingo down...... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694749 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 22:39:14 +0000 Mona 694749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think first pair was made for you. You look incredibly hip and pretty in this silhouette. Yay!!!!!!! for report booties also. I also ordered two pairs of these BF's but still waiting for them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694747 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 22:37:14 +0000 catgirl 694747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first pair, hands down. Too funny about your daughter and husband! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694737 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 22:20:39 +0000 Vicki 694737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the link, Suz. It really helped having the name "citrine" for the color. GAP is holding two pairs for me (2 and 4) and I probably should have had them hold a 6, too. We'll see if I have as much luck as you have had here. As Rae and the others said, the 6 makes it "a look." Loving Jem's hubby's comment! That's too funny.</p> <p>Oh, forgot to tell you in my first post that I love your Report booties with this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694707 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:53:15 +0000 Anonymous 694707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the smaller pair (sorry, but they are SO flattering) and that could save you money if you share with DD. Those are the ones are the ones DH saw on you and liked, right? However, they might be too similar to the ones you already own to keep them. </p> <p>I LOVE the mulberry sweater on you. A lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694676 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:37:13 +0000 morethanbeige 694676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Suz, thanks for sharing your boyfriends with us! I really like the first pair on you. I think you so pull off this look. The extra baggy has such an effect. It's a real look and it's fab on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694662 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:31:17 +0000 Jenniferblue 694662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What was the question? Is there a question? You look fab in all the pictures. You can't<br /> go wrong. Sooooooo cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694659 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:30:45 +0000 Jem 694659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing in all of them, but I really love the first pair! I'm really going to have to try a pair 2 sizes up. When I got mine from ebay, my husband asked why they were called "boyfriend" jeans and I explained it to him. Then he said, "I thought it was because the boyfriend/husband would like the easier access"... lol Men... &lt;rolls eyes&gt; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694654 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:26:47 +0000 rae 694654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm just adding to the concensus, it seems - first pair, 2 sizes up, all the way! The extra bagginess makes it a LOOK. Love it. DD can have the "younger man" (a.k.a. the smaller size). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694649 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:23:16 +0000 Suz 694649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Lemonade. My mother would be proud; she drilled good posture into me. </p> <p>And I agree with you that the BF shortens the legs, something I definitely do at my own risk, given how short they already are! </p> <p>BTW, you are by no means on your own. I think lots of people will dislike this look. </p> <p>I should clarify - I already own the last pair. And I'm not giving those ones up; they're a great silhouette. I was just curious as to whether I should keep either of the Gaps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694642 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:18:42 +0000 Irene 694642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I like the last pair best, but you can pull off the first pair too. I'm jealous of your good posture, you really stand straight and proud! I'm just not a fan of the boyfriend silouette on anyone, especially since it kinda shortens the legs... I don't know, but I think I'm all on my own here so... lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694638 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:14:33 +0000 CocoLion 694638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are equally flattering! However, I vote for 2 sizes up as the 1 size up pair are more like the ones you already have. It's nice to have a range of fits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694630 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:11:00 +0000 Suz 694630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah - we don't have petites here, Citygirl. So it's regulars, whatever our height. Which means we are same size! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694625 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:07:12 +0000 citygirldc 694625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz - Funny thing was that size 4p was too tight on me but size 6p was baggy so I kept the size 6. I usually wear size 4 petite pants/jeans or size 2 regulars. I have more hips though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-and-my-daughter-love-my-boyfriend-what-should-i-do#post-694616 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 21:02:26 +0000 Suz 694616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, 2 sizes up seems to be winning...</p> <p>the advantage of that is I could give the 4s to my daughter. She is too small to wear the 6s, being 2 inches shorter and at least 10 pounds lighter. </p>
