Katrina, I think there is "too much" pant near the groin/upper thigh area for my eye...I might try them for public use one more time, but again, they will be nice to throw on post shower, if not quite ready for pjays or dressing for the day.  bj1111, Thank you.  oh the PT is tedious....but again I so do not want surgery.  I have also decided if PT doesn't make a big difference I will try acupuncture next.  Injury by clothing, LOL.  I think we might have all experienced that one time or another.  RobinF  Thank you!   RobinF on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201582 Thu, 10 Jun 2021 12:33:11 +0000 RobinF 2201582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great outfits, I can't pick a favorite but #3 made me go "ooh"! And curly hair fab-ness!  Bummer about the injury, hope the PT helps. bj1111 on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201576 Thu, 10 Jun 2021 12:13:15 +0000 bj1111 2201576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ how did the physical therapy appt go?  muscle and joint injuries are hard, esp in the legs--after all, you have to use them every day! i love the wide leg fits and agree with your pragmatic assessment.  last think you needed was another injury inflicted by your clothes!

No 2 is particularly fabulous - love the shapes and the colors. The trousers in no 1 look great in the photo, it’s a pity you didn’t like them. I hope your injury will heal without surgery and wish all the best!

Fashintern, thanks for the suggestion, never thought about changing at PT! kellygirl, Thank you, yeow a rupture, mine originally was just "nicked" in a freak accident.  Phoebe, Happy Purse! Firecracker, thank you for the well wishes and yes those are the same pants, I wish you could feel them, they first look like denim, but they feel like silk! Suntiger, Slim Cat, Jonesy, thank you! Laurie, thank you for the compliments....I always say I am fighting the good fight, trying to stay fit! Synne, oh I plan on it!  It was just so funny when I realized how those flowy pants were going to get stuck in the pedals of the bike! Angie, thank you for the well wishes, regarding handbags.....you turned me on to Furla!   rachylou, thank you Shevia, thank you!  Yes, the bag makes me happy!  Best thing I did for my hair was stopping the coloring process, easier for us curly heads to do! JAileen, Thanks for the suggestion, it is I am  just not comfortable anymore in shorts, prefer below the knee. Brooklyn, thank you for the well wishes....those pants in #1....., okay, I will try them again!

My favourite is no 1. You should wear those pants! Sorry about your injury. I have similar issues with a back and knee injury. Chronic pain/injury sucks. JAileen on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201340 Wed, 09 Jun 2021 01:45:44 +0000 JAileen 2201340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like all of the outfits!  For riding a bike, though, I might have worn shorts or a skort.  Years ago, I ruined a beautiful pair of wool pants by catching them in my bike chain.   Jaime on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201339 Wed, 09 Jun 2021 01:40:39 +0000 Jaime 2201339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ These are all great outfits! I love the pink bag you chose with your last outfit. And your hair! My hair nods in recognition and just a bit of envy.  rachylou on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201296 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 20:32:27 +0000 rachylou 2201296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #4 looks good, fit for purpose! All of them look great, but outfits do have to make sense!

I know how long these injuries take to heal, and it sucks. Hang in there :( #2 is KILLER wow! Elegant and relaxed in that great '70s way. The other outfits are fabulous too. Loving the additions of trendy shoes and polished handbags.  Synne on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201268 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 18:24:04 +0000 Synne 2201268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My, my what great outfits! If they where wrong for the occasion this time around, hope you get to wear them out and about somewhere else! Ylf! Laurie on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201246 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 17:26:06 +0000 Laurie 2201246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I also really like all 4 of these outfits, but especially 1 & 4 because that top looks so terrific on you, and goes well with both of the pants. Best wishes for continued healing. Long-term injuries with low-grade pain can really drain us. You certainly are looking like you're in top shape, though! Jonesy on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201240 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 17:18:53 +0000 Jonesy 2201240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm so sorry to hear about your injury! I hope physical therapy works its magic and you turn a corner. These are all fab outfits and I can related to switching a bunch of times before you head out the door :). I especially love #2--it has a lot of personality and you wear those high-waisted, flared jeans really beautifully. slim cat on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201230 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 16:44:55 +0000 slim cat 2201230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like all the looks but love #1 ( I know it's not your fav but looks great on you ). Sorry to hear about the injury - hope you'll get better soon.

Sorry to hear you're not feeling fab in the pants in #1; you certainly make them look great in the photo!</div><div>I especially like #2. Are those the same pants in #3? They are a fab fit and style on you, and both tops and footwear work well with them.</div><div>Your final outfit looks like just the ticket for your appointment, a perfect blend of function and style. </div><div> </div><div>My sympathy to you on the injury. I've heard Achilles injuries can take forever to heal, and it sounds awfully painful. I hope the physical therapy enables you to avoid surgery. </div> Anonymous on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201196 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 15:37:41 +0000 Anonymous 2201196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I agree about the pants in 1, all the rest are great pieces and great outfits and your final choice looks perfect for the occasion. It's true, the purse really makes a difference. kellygirl on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201188 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 15:28:41 +0000 kellygirl 2201188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Every one of these is perfect in my book. I love the fluid pants as well as the jeans. The woeven top in 2 is adorable on you too. You do sleeveless so well!  Sorry about your injury. I had a complete rupture several years ago. Not fun.  Stagiaire Fash on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201186 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 15:27:29 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2201186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Welp, you’ve got half a week’s worth of good outfits lined up. If the pants from 2 work on the bike, you could try them with the top from 1. Or just take gym clothes to change into. carambola on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201184 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 15:21:11 +0000 carambola 2201184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Special love for #2 - something about the puffy sleeves with the width of the jeans really appeals to me - but you look great in all of these! Tanya on "What I wore and what I didn't" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-wore-and-what-i-didnt#post-2201177 Tue, 08 Jun 2021 14:55:39 +0000 Tanya 2201177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ All the outfits are great, including the one that you actually wore.

The outfit in #4 looks like a practical one for your physical therapy appointment, and the bag is very pretty. I really like the outfits in #2 and #3, with #3 being my favorite.

Backstory:  About 9 months ago, I re-injured my right Achilles tendon, original injury was done over 40 years ago!  So for 9 months I have been through many modalities of treatment, cortisone, ultrasound, wearing a boot, etc.  I am now up to the last effort, before surgery, physical therapy.  I am not able to wear, for the last 9 months, any shoes with a back, (since the back of the ankle is quite swollen and painful).   But now to my point.  When I go to physical therapy, they have to be able to access my calf and they make me ride a stationary bike....considerations concerning clothing must be made!  So yesterday I had on 3 outfits and ended up wearing the fourth!  #1 decided I really didn't like the pants, at all! I will wear them as lounge wear #2 Realized I would be too warm on the bike with the long sleeves #3 Realized, the flowy pants, which are not jeans!, would get stuck in the pedals of the bike! #4, Ran out of time!  But the purse made me happy!
