I especially like the way you have these styled in 2 and 4/5, although that green in the last top is amazing on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-741532 Sun, 07 Oct 2012 02:50:18 +0000 Transcona Shannon 741532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey Sveta - they are dropped crotch as the waist actually sits on my hip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-741429 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 23:56:00 +0000 Sveta 741429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, I cannot see in the pictures - are they slouchy (aka dropped crotch as per Angie's definition) or just baggy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-741034 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 14:20:39 +0000 Transcona Shannon 741034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY! Glad you like their reinvention. Wonder Woman knew EXACTLY what I was talking about - that woman never ceases to amaze me. I hope she never moves or retires!</p> <p>Julie - the fabric is 62% polyester, 33% rayon and 6% spandex. They are machine wash in cold and lay flat to dry. The fabric has beautiful feel and is fairly substantial in thickness.</p> <p>I think I might have to go and pick up the blue ones... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-741020 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 13:55:35 +0000 texstyle 741020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job getting these just right - they look really fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-741001 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 12:53:48 +0000 Anonymous 741001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are SO much more fashion forward now that you've had them altered. I love! You and Wonder Woman are a powerful style duo! Loving the poses too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-741000 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 12:37:09 +0000 Jjsloane 741000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job Shannon - snap up those blue pants too! I love the houndstooth topper and the green sweater. However, I spent too many days as a caterer in your #4 outfit to not have a poison eye for it. Just swap the black vest for fur vest (did you keep yours) or leather jacket and you're good to go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740999 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 12:34:51 +0000 krishnidoux 740999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fantastic idea! Your intuition was spot on! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740902 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 06:08:55 +0000 jayne 740902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love how modern and chic they look after the conversion. They were, sorry to say, downright frumpy before.</p> <p>Have you tried with a fitted blazer? I don't know if it s really your style but it is another way to wear them. Or with a looser kinda soft sweater, that should not be tucked </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740882 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 05:13:50 +0000 JulieJohn 740882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dude! I adore these, and may have to copy you (and Sveta). I especially like the last photo, kind of an Una vibe to it: brooding, complex, and utterly bada$$.</p> <p>Question: What material / thickness are the pants made of? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740858 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 03:54:38 +0000 Sveta 740858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you are doing better than me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740830 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 02:37:33 +0000 Suz 740830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Shannon! When I get back from my trip if I have any money left, I just may go buy some of these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740804 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 01:50:10 +0000 Transcona Shannon 740804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I got them at The Bay. I'm actually kind of loving the entire Lord &amp; Taylor line. I'm also eyeing a beautiful cashmere sweater....but I digress..and watch because every once in a while, they are offering 25% off Lord &amp; Taylor items.</p> <p>After all the work I've had done by Wonder Woman West, I think I would trust her with anything. I'm glad you've found your own Wonder Woman! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740797 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 01:39:10 +0000 Suz 740797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>THat would NOT be silly. And, um...okay...did you get them at The Bay? </p> <p>Maybe WonderWoman East could do this for me! </p> <p>I think she would need to see an inspiration pic. She had a lot of trouble last year when I told her I wanted a dress tapered but NOT shortened. However, unlike Shiny's tailor, she did the job and did it right, despite her reservations. So I'm thinking I could also trust her with this. I would LOVE slouchy cobalt pants! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740785 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 01:31:38 +0000 Transcona Shannon 740785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm actually so thrilled with these Rae and Angie, that I'm tempted to go buy the exact same Lord &amp; Taylor trousers in the gorgeous cobalt blue colour they have and get her to do the same thing - would that be silly? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740781 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 01:29:43 +0000 Angie 740781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonder Woman nailed it :)</p> <p>Loving #4 especially. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740756 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 00:58:49 +0000 rae 740756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, lala! She is called Wonder Woman for a reason! Fabulous transformation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sveta-and-others---my-new-black-slouchy-trousers#post-740700 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 00:06:45 +0000 Transcona Shannon 740700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta and I both undertook the seamstress challenge of altering "regular" legged pants into tapered and therefore slouchy trousers.</p> <p>I bought these Lord &amp; Taylor trousers last week and love the fit - they sit on my lower waist and have a real "ease" about them already. They zip up the side and have no pockets but great wide belt loops. They were perfectly ankle length but I wanted some scrunch and so had Wonder Woman lower the hem to as long as could be and then tapered from the knee down. I'm thrilled with how they turned out as they truly are fairly slouchy now and give a completely different vibe - but I would love your feedback and additional styling ideas. </p> <p>The first pic is how they were when I bought them and the rest are just some quick stylings. Your feedback is welcome! </p>
