I will ponder. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-check-on-new-pants#post-229806 Sun, 10 Oct 2010 23:00:19 +0000 Anonymous 229806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One inch is a tad short in my opinion as well. Are they of khaki or cotton material though? Sometimes these are color treated after they are made. As a result, there can be a visible hemline or mark at the original hem. I would check before I take the tags off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-check-on-new-pants#post-229794 Sun, 10 Oct 2010 22:40:45 +0000 Tanya 229794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, if they are about an inch off the floor, then they might be a bit short. Is there enough fabric in the seam to let them out a bit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-check-on-new-pants#post-229778 Sun, 10 Oct 2010 22:23:01 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 229778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, sorry Tanya, I'm having trouble getting good photos recently with the fall light. Maybe I should try again with the tan pair; maybe they'd show up better. They're about an inch or so off the ground in the back with flats, with a slight break in the front.</p> <p>Edit: OK, so I took a picture of the tan pants as well and added that to my original post. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-check-on-new-pants#post-229775 Sun, 10 Oct 2010 22:19:49 +0000 Tanya 229775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is a bit diff cult to tell, but they look fine to me. Do they almost touch the ground in the back? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-check-on-new-pants#post-229772 Sun, 10 Oct 2010 22:16:28 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 229772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(I'm posting like crazy, sorry - I finally got time to upload all the pics off my camera.)</p> <p>Part 2 of the results from my quarterly visit to the outlet mall: stuff from Ann Taylor Factory Store; didn’t have much success there as far as interesting pieces. On the plus side, everything was an additional 40% off. I ended up with one <a href="http://www.friendsofpr.com/laurats/sequintop.JPG">knit top with sequins/embroidery in purple</a>, and two pairs of pants - I’m checking here to make sure the silhouette and length is ok. <a href="http://www.friendsofpr.com/laurats/brownpants.JPG">This is the brown pair</a> - the other is tan but otherwise identical. (Photo overexposed to show detail.)</p> <p>Edit: took a quick <a href="http://www.friendsofpr.com/laurats/tanpants.JPG">pic of the tan pants</a> and i think you can see a bit better in this photo (despite its other unflattering flaws, sigh). </p> <p>(I always appreciate feedback including constructive criticism.) </p>
