Uncuffed, they look too big, but cuffing them makes the bagginess (is that a real word?) look intentional. Peach and olive is a great color combo and it looks good on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694654 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 02:20:14 +0000 rachylou 1694654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not feelin' them...outfit is fine, just not getting the 'I feel great' vibe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694648 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 02:12:22 +0000 Thistle 1694648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them as a casual weekend trouser. Question is, do you? If you haven't worn them in a couple years, you probably won't now.</p> <p>Pass them on and focus on choices that make you feel fab and that you want to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694639 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 02:01:43 +0000 Maneera 1694639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too long. I don't think they're necessarily too baggy (I think they were meant to be voluminous) but they definitely need to be shortened. If you're not feeling them...pass on. But I have to say --- I LOVE the whole outfit in #6. That's Casual Fab!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694611 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 01:22:49 +0000 Lucy 1694611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I would pass on the pants, but the blouse is lovely and looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694609 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 01:20:53 +0000 Column 1694609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I'm going to be the odd person out. But as a curvy girl, I am used to this fit and look in pants--and you can't beat the comfort compared to more tailoring. I think your cuffed version is brilliant! The key for me is the senderness of your ankle. Maybe wear daintier shoes, like pumps, or ankle straps with a low vamp sandal even if the heel is low to showcase more skin. Again, to my taste, this qualifies as JFE. The color and drape over your hips is lovely. You just need that tailoring at the (alluring) ankle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694546 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 00:11:33 +0000 Roxanna 1694546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@chouette - they are really baggy, so I would have to have them tapered to look flattering at ankle length or above. And given the drape of the fabric, I don't think it would work. I think I chalk this one up to experience, unfortunately. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694544 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 00:07:57 +0000 chouette22 1694544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Instead of cuffing or discarding, why not try to cut some inches off? They could make some really cool ankle/above ankle pants. Worth a try?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694466 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 22:42:20 +0000 Windchime 1694466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the outfit you've put together, but have to agree with others the pants look a bit too big for you. Can you shop for similar pants that fit you better? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694426 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 22:00:31 +0000 Anna 1694426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others. The color is great but just too big on you. I do like the colors together though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694424 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 21:45:00 +0000 Sal 1694424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others so it looks like a consensus decision that works for you!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694307 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 19:41:10 +0000 Roxanna 1694307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks @Ledonna - as you say, pass them on to a thrift shop and let someone else benefit!</p> <p>@Lisap - Thanks so much, and I agree. It is a pity because i love blush with olive (and putting on these pants this morning, I immediately thought of you, summer olive queen! I remember you have a pair of olive cargos that are perfection.)&nbsp;</p> <p>Truthfully, I'm relieved to retire something that doesn't work so well in favour of things that do; my wardrobe is too large for my liking (and still I keep buying...why?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694231 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 18:19:16 +0000 Ledonna N. 1694231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this look and yes they do look big but well hey feel free to pass them on to a good home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694216 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 17:46:29 +0000 Anonymous 1694216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your top, your shoes, your hair, your makeup, love the pants too but they look too long or a tad too big on you . &nbsp;Too bad though, as this is a great outfit on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694214 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 17:44:47 +0000 Roxanna 1694214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@smittie I hear you, and I agree. Something about these is not drapey enough - they just seem a balloon-y. Maybe that's the problem I'm having... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694202 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 17:38:51 +0000 Anonymous 1694202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm positive you could rock harems, Roxanna, but these don't look quite right to me. Maybe not drapey enough? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694177 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 17:20:52 +0000 Roxanna 1694177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies - I tend to agree. I love the colour, but they are long, and a bit too roomy (not good on my already pear shaped frame.)</p> <p>I blame the purchase on another girl beside me in the fitting room who said she would take them if I didn't. Nothing like a good case of FOMO to lead to bad purchase decisions for me.</p> <p>look forward to others' feedback too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694112 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 16:28:09 +0000 RobinF 1694112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those pants but they do look like they might be a little long on you? The way they bunch up at the ankles makes me wonder that. The top and necklace look really nice with them if you could maybe have them hemmed. I'm pretty new at this though, so will be interested in what the others here think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694103 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 16:22:39 +0000 Liz A. 1694103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm more of a classic dresser myself, so take with a grain of salt, but I think they look a bit big. &nbsp;I might wear them around the house for lounging. &nbsp;Love the peach color on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-pants-keep-or-donate#post-1694097 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 16:14:57 +0000 Roxanna 1694097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I've had these pants for a couple of years and Angie's harem pants post inspired me to haul them out (I think of them as 'harem lite.') </p> <p>I always find them too voluminous, long and generally overwhelming on me, which is why I have cuffed them in some of the pics.</p> <p>Question : Should I keep these, or are they not my best look?<br /> If I keep them, should I cuff or not?</p> <p>Pants and Jacket : Anthropologie<br /> Silk blouse : Joe Fresh </p>
