If you can let the hems down a wee bit they'll be even better. They'd look great with a high-low top, or over-sized tee, and they should be good for an enlarging belly (Congratulations!)<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897953 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 23:58:38 +0000 Sara L. 897953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Jjsloane and Una - you guys crack me up with the "What to Expect" book. &nbsp;This is actually my third baby - my other two are boys ages 5 and 7. &nbsp;I'm 39 now so definitely getting the AMA (Advanced Maternal Age) talk from the doctor. &nbsp;Maybe that's my problem - I'm coming up on 40 and then to be told I'm AMA. &nbsp;Ugh! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897930 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 23:44:45 +0000 catgirl 897930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Jjsloane, I could not agree more about "What to Expect"!&nbsp; I'm pretty sure 99% of moms in the world do just fine without following all those rules about hygienic restaurants, etc.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897923 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 23:39:47 +0000 Jjsloane 897923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the pants - they will be airy enough to get you through a few more months at least. (I am rogue when it comes to lengths and in your situation they will end up at multiple lengths, but good news is that's ok these days)<br />Congratulations and I had mine at 38 and 42 and I think you're younger than this (not that it matters). Once you get over all the doctor scares of being a "mature mother" you actually get better care (more ultrasounds and tests are approved by insurance). Just NEVER NEVER NEVER read "what to Expect When you're expecting" Doom and gloom there. Also resist the internet (or treat it with a grain of salt)- too much bad information.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897909 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 23:32:56 +0000 Aida 897909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love 'em for you, and vote to let the hems down as long as possible. A fab option for expansion https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897728 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 20:28:36 +0000 catgirl 897728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh, good! &nbsp;Am happy for you! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897723 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 20:25:24 +0000 Sara L. 897723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Angie - do you think an inch longer will do it?&nbsp; If I go shorter - how much shorter?&nbsp; Thanks for your help with this.<br /><br />Una - You're not prying, don't worry.&nbsp; I've mentioned it on other posts, just haven't made a big announcement.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897710 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 20:15:43 +0000 Day Vies 897710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh what fun! I would love to see you wear that with something in the fuchsia family.&nbsp; -- Very nice. ( I love the fit too!) <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897698 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 20:11:14 +0000 Angie 897698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The fit is great! They need to be either longer or shorter to my eye though. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897538 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 18:05:03 +0000 catgirl 897538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Okay.&nbsp; Didn't mean to pry, just curious if this was just a fleeting moment or&nbsp; an ongoing style issue we'll need to figure out. :)&nbsp; Will wait for your announcement.&nbsp; I was an older mom too (had my son at 37) so when you feel like discussing I will be there for you! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897491 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 17:31:11 +0000 Sara L. 897491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Shannon - I can let the hem down about an inch.&nbsp; I actually started to do it and then thought I should get an opinion from the forum since I'm not very good with&nbsp;pant lengths. <br /><br />Una - I'm 3 months pregnant.&nbsp; It's not a secret but I haven't made an announcement either.&nbsp; I'll do an OT thread eventually but I'm still not interested in lots of discussion yet.&nbsp; I think because I feel old and that people are going to judge me (which makes no sense, I know). https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897457 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 17:07:44 +0000 rachylou 897457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The pants are cute! I like the idea of a high-low hemmed shirt with them.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897429 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 16:51:02 +0000 catgirl 897429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ They look very on trend to me.&nbsp; Silky, patterned, slouchy.&nbsp; Length could be longer but I think you can make this work. <br /><br />(Is "expanding belly" code for anything?) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897373 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:58:56 +0000 Raisin 897373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think the pants look great, the pattern is great and they could work really well for an expanding belly. &nbsp;A little extra length might be nice too. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897365 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:51:47 +0000 Echo 897365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The length reads a bit short to me, as well. Pants this length tend to coordinate better to my eye with flat shoes than with any sort of heel, but I am no expert on PPL, either. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897335 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:11:03 +0000 Sara L. 897335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ They're super comfy and the fabric is so light that they'll be great in the hot summer here.&nbsp; I'll probably wear them with the shoes shown or something similar.&nbsp; When it gets warmer, I'll might wear sandals and most of my&nbsp;nicer sandals&nbsp;have a bit of a heel. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897330 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:06:55 +0000 Transcona Shannon 897330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the fit and the pattern is great Sara - lots of top options to go with the black/white pattern.<br /><br />I'm afraid they read as too short to me though. Is there any hem allowance you could let down? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897326 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:04:50 +0000 Anonymous 897326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think a bit longer would be better. The pattern is great. Are they comfy?<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897325 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:03:18 +0000 Anonymous 897325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like these on you very much but am unsure of the length. &nbsp;They seem fine as they are with your heels&nbsp;but I think I'd like them even more a bit longer. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897321 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:00:12 +0000 Thistle 897321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great pattern - very on trend with the black and white, and the pattern. Two trends in one!<br /><br />And pattern hides things you want to keep hidden&nbsp; ;)<br /><br />What shoes are you going to wear them with? They look fine with the heels to me, but I am terrible at PPL still. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897314 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 14:57:36 +0000 bj1111 897314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ fun pattern and great fit. &nbsp;i wonder how it would look if you wore a top with different bottom than cut straight across? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-these-silky-pants#post-897298 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 14:42:38 +0000 Sara L. 897298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I bought these pants over the winter but haven't worn them because they are so thin and silky.&nbsp;&nbsp;If they don't work to wear out of the house they're so comfy I'll keep them for lounge wear.&nbsp; They have an elastic waistband so I'm not planning on tucking anything in unless I cover the waistband with a belt (which I won't be modeling anytime soon with&nbsp;my expanding belly).&nbsp; How do they look?&nbsp; What do you think of the length?&nbsp; I can lower them about an inch.
