There is an American version, but not streaming. It would cost a lot to get. Too bad...<br />I'm glad you liked the cartoon. Reminds me of quite a lot of people in the Rocky Mountains, as well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2414010 Thu, 28 May 2026 00:12:40 +0000 Jenni NZ 2414010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Chase is TV, yes, a quiz show. Excellent questions, we learn a lot. Bradley Walsh is the British host. It’s on at 5 pm so often gets watched while cooking dinner.<br /> That’s a funny cartoon! I do like a minuscule cocktail watch! And Miller’s is actually an Australian chain that we have here, kind of lowish priced mall brand which admittedly does have a lot of fully printed tops, LOL. I have owned items from there in the past but not currently </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2414008 Wed, 27 May 2026 23:11:55 +0000 Carol 2414008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jaime--thanks! Now off to get some espadrilles.</p> <p>Star--agree.</p> <p>Jenni--thanks so much! I fear it is too much. I did just go over and add a great movie moment to Ket's "bad haircut" post, if you want to check it out. I don't know the Chase, but I don't watch TV. Is it TV? I mostly watch movies these days. Have you seen these "People of NZ" comics? There are many. I find them funny, but I don't live there.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2414004 Wed, 27 May 2026 22:55:14 +0000 Carol 2414004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie--yes to all 3! I think I will get a pair.</p> <p>Suz--they would! I am impressed you remember my climate.</p> <p>Sal--thank you!</p> <p>bj1111--I forgot "I Dream of Jeanie--" I can hear the tune now!</p> <p>Roberta--pretty color. They have so many--I just saw a nice light blue.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2413999 Wed, 27 May 2026 22:03:17 +0000 Jenni NZ 2413999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carol I just love having you on the forum! You have the best memory for pop culture moments. I don’t know that I ever watched that movie in its entirety.<br /> I am old enough to remember “I Dream of Jeannie” though, to BJ’s point. It came up as a question on The Chase recently as well! Do you get The Chase in the US? It’s British but extremely popular here in NZ also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2413905 Wed, 27 May 2026 03:32:10 +0000 Star (Lise) 2413905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think a wedge heeled espadrille is an excellent shoe choice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2413893 Tue, 26 May 2026 23:20:43 +0000 Jaime 2413893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent reference! Yes wedge espadrilles matches the vibe in my mind too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2413885 Tue, 26 May 2026 23:06:59 +0000 Roberta 2413885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So bright and comfortable! I was just considering a pair of gauze pants in a dark purple (I already own red). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2413876 Tue, 26 May 2026 22:00:21 +0000 bj1111 2413876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mr bj1111 starts humming the theme from I dream of Jeannie when I wear mine </p> <p>Love love the shape and the red pops.

Fabulous 80s outfit and good memory! I hope you find your perfect pair of balloon pants. They'd work great for your climate.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2413850 Tue, 26 May 2026 14:05:56 +0000 Angie 2413850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a fab movie reference for balloon pants! Good Halloween costume too. </p> <p>And a great item to wear in your hot climate, <b>Carol</b>! Cheers to finding a perfect pair :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/raiders-of-the-lost-closet#post-2413849 Tue, 26 May 2026 13:49:28 +0000 Carol 2413849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think balloon pants just might be the ticket for an item I truly need this summer--especially something in a gauzy, light-colored fabric.</p> <p>They remind me of something...bazaars, deserts, baskets, embroidery...kidnapping? All of a sudden, I remembered where in pop culture I had seen this item, and it is the Karen Allen kidnapping scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark (Indiana Jones), 1981.</p> <p>A memorable scene with lots of action, set in the&nbsp; street of Cairo on a sunny, leisurely morning interrupted by men with knives and scimitars. Good thing she wore a low heel.</p> <p>This outfit is apparently more memorable than I realized, because it is an established Halloween costume, often a couples costume, alongside Indiana Jones. The whole outfit is cute, but I particularly like the low-heel wedge. That sounds like a great shoe to wear with these pants.&nbsp; </p>
