So glad to hear! I don’t think you’ll ever regret your decision. You can hang out in no buy land until the overload passes. Should not be hard with so many beautiful pieces to play with!!! Congrats!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1/page/2#post-2272880 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 23:47:42 +0000 merwoman 2272880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah ladies you are all so beautifully supportive! Thank you all for your thoughts and suggestions and bossiness! &nbsp;IM KEEPING IT ALL!<br />just some quick responses to specific questions:<br /><b>Janet</b> , pants are a poly/spandex blend, 88/12 if I’m not mistaken<br />Adding a photo of the product code if that is helpful to search for the item.<br /><b>Staysfit</b>, stalk the Smythe coat. With your height and colouring it would be gorgeous on you.<br /><b>Windchime</b>, appreciate your warning about the slits. It sounds like you you took a serious tumble!! I have klutz tendencies myself so will definitely be cautious! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1/page/2#post-2272837 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 20:57:35 +0000 Windchime 2272837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to answer your question about the coats but can’t get past how fab you look in the black pants/white blouse outfit!&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>One note of caution about the pants…I have flare pants with slits, and I actually tripped and fell once, going down a step, when the toe of one shoe somehow got caught in the opposite side pant leg. I was walking along feeling good about my outfit, and next thing I knew, I was on the ground, with very sore knees, wondering what just happened. I almost got rid of the pants after that happened but decided to keep them and use caution when wearing them.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>Re the coats…if you have enough cold weather to justify keeping them both, go for it!</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1/page/2#post-2272835 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 20:35:24 +0000 LJP 2272835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh man those pants look great on you ! Well , everything looks great on you but …<br /> I had my eye on these too but they sold out right away . If budget allows , I say keep it all . These are wonderful , classic-with- a -twist pieces . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1/page/2#post-2272830 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 19:18:24 +0000 Aquamarine 2272830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look FANTASTIC in everything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1/page/2#post-2272825 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 18:00:24 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2272825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I give two thumbs up AND a big toe to those pants!&nbsp; You look faaaaabulous!&nbsp; &nbsp;They work beautifully with your sneakers and sandals!</p> <p>Okay.&nbsp; &nbsp;The coats...&nbsp; phew... this is a tough one!&nbsp; &nbsp;I want to enable you for both, because they both look gorgeous.&nbsp; &nbsp;But I don't know what you already have, or how much of the year you need outerwear.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1/page/2#post-2272767 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 12:34:10 +0000 Indigoprint 2272767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I think they are so different and so FAB that you should keep both as long as it fits your budget. In my limited experience great coats do not come often and when they do depending on your climate are workhorses.<br />One has to have outerwear <i>everyday i</i>n the cold season so it is nice to have a variety. Keepers!<i></i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1/page/2#post-2272766 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 12:30:02 +0000 Bijou 2272766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The forum has spoken - SERIOUSLY you need to keep these items they are all just that good and the coats are absolutely different. The Smyth is just amazing, but its not an everyday coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272747 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 11:15:28 +0000 Janet 2272747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, the pants do nothing for me in the stock photo, but on you they’re amazing. They’re full-length? And side slits! What’s the fabric? </p> <p>Also both coats are keepers to my eye — totally different vibes but you wear them equally well. If that Smythe coat were available in a different color palette, I’d be all over it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272736 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 10:00:54 +0000 Staysfit 2272736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome! &nbsp;You snagged the Smythe coat! &nbsp;It was sold out before the sale started. &nbsp;I had my eye on it and had hoped to give it a try. &nbsp;It looks amazing and I would absolutely keep it. The same with the brown. &nbsp;I say there is no such thing as too many coats. &nbsp;They last a long time and you will have them for years. &nbsp;The brown looks modern classic and the Smythe is a wonderful classic statement item. &nbsp;Bravo! &nbsp;Love it all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272697 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 03:31:08 +0000 Carla 2272697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You’ve received excellent advice </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272691 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 02:35:01 +0000 Jaime 2272691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those coats have nothing to do with each other and are both fabulous.

The pants are fab - even with sneaks - and the coats are so different that they can't even be compared. They wouldn't overlap in terms of wardrobe uses, so they are BOTH good purchases. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272686 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 01:41:41 +0000 meng W 2272686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pants is&nbsp; cool,&nbsp; but i would like white if they have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272685 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 01:05:26 +0000 merwoman 2272685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Donna</b> appreciate your straight talk, and I’ll gladly take ‘your share’ of the coat allotment.&nbsp;<div>Ah <b>Gryffin</b> exactly! It feels like too much and I should exercise more restraint, but all three seem perfect for me. Thanks for your kind encouragement.<br /><b>Suz</b> it’s been fab indeed! The message is loud and clear, cut the tags and enjoy!</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272680 Tue, 19 Jul 2022 00:01:27 +0000 merwoman 2272680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Eliza</b>, sweet words, thank you!<br /><b>rachylou,</b> my merman said the pants have to stay, and my response was it’s a matched set with the jacket. I think I’m keeping it all!<br /><b>Vildy</b>!!! Well you’ve just made my evening!! Your words have given me such a boost, thank you!<br />The flares feel like they will be a fun change <b>Slimcat</b>!<br /><b>JAileen</b>…you made me laugh. We are on the same team wrt coats. I am resourceful, I will make room!<br /><b>Angie</b> I would never have given these pants a first look , never mind a second look without your recommendation. Thank you lovely lady!<br /><b>ummLila</b>, tbh the fabric feels like a stretch pant, 88% poly, 12% spandex. But maybe that’s the genius of it, it just kind of hugs your body and feels extremely comfortable, all the while looking dressy.<br />I’m &nbsp;5’5”. &nbsp;My preferred inseam for a full length pant ( wearing flats ) is 30”. These pants ( size xs )have an inseam of 30.5”. I can just picture you in these with your beautiful blouses/shirts.<br />It’s so true <b>Missvee,</b> living in Ontario we need many many coats!&nbsp;<div><b>Peri</b> that’s it in a nutshell, if I keep both I can be practical and happy!<br />I was really surprised at the longer length as well…and actually prefer it.<br /><b>Debbie</b>, keep stalking , these pants are the bomb!</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272678 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 23:59:12 +0000 Suz 2272678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Listen, it is all great! Everyone sees it and knows it. I think you will wear all these items a long time and each one is special in its own way. FAB sale for you!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272675 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 23:47:57 +0000 gryffin 2272675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Merwoman - first you look fantastic in everything. I’m sorry but you really, really need to keep everything. The pants are fab. So elegant and the slit is swoon worthy. The pea coat is great. It’s totally different and as we said previously, coats are our jam. You will keep them a long time. I know you weren’t planning on purchasing this much and that’s stressful. But lightening rarely strikes. Put a moratorium on shopping for a couple of months and hang your beautiful new pieces in your closet! Enjoy and please toss the boxes asap. It’s all just that special… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272672 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 23:31:38 +0000 DonnaF 2272672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All three are great. I don't need coats in my mild climate, so you are welcome to my share. Brown peacoats are rare as are prints like the coat. How can you possibly pass on two unicorns?</p> <p>I know we tend to be enablers here, but seriously. . .if you have to return one, it would be the pants because I've seen similar ones -- but maybe they wouldn't fit and flatter you as much.</p> <p>Per kkards, I see nothing wrong with having outerwear for every temperature and weather event. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272671 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 23:28:08 +0000 Debbie 2272671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both coats. I will happily enable. I am stalking those pants so it’s a big yes from me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272670 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 23:24:00 +0000 Peri 2272670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep both coats for sure! The brown one may be more practical but the Smythe one made you so happy I imagine it would be a real regret later if you returned it. Who says we have to be always practical...sometimes we just have to go with love.</p> <p>The pants look great but I'm so surprised about them. I didn't even look because they are cropped on the model but on you they look full length. Keep them too!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272669 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 23:07:07 +0000 missvee 2272669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the pants on you - great silhouette. &nbsp;As for the coats, they’re so different I don’t see why you wouldn’t keep both. &nbsp;Based on the fabric, the blazer should be a nice casual piece for spring or fall (I’m in Ontario too, and have many, many coats…). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272667 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 22:56:35 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2272667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What is the fabric like on those pants? And, how tall are you/ what is your preferred inseam? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272663 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 22:40:26 +0000 Angie 2272663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER x3.&nbsp;</p> <p>LOVE THE PANTS!!! Chic. Sooo nice to see full length pants gain momentum.</p> <p>And what <b>Irina&nbsp;</b>and<b> Delurked</b>, said. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272662 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 22:39:43 +0000 JAileen 2272662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Kkards, I have as many coats as the Inuit have words for snow. &nbsp;These two coats serve different purposes, and they both look great on you. &nbsp;Is there room in your closet? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272660 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 22:30:27 +0000 slim cat 2272660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the flares! Brown coat is difficult to compare to your fancy one - but both are very useful additions ( and look great on you ) ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272659 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 22:25:58 +0000 Vildy 2272659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm coat addicted, so no common sense from me. And I'm stuck on pictures 1, 2, and 3.&nbsp; Was there ever anyone who looked better in a white shirt and black pants?&nbsp; I'm betting not. No wonder they keep putting those items on must have lists while many&nbsp; of the rest of us are puzzled. :D&nbsp; If I worked that outfit like that, I'd have a very minimal wardrobe indeed and would loathe to cover that outfit up with any of my gazillion outerwear pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272653 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 21:40:17 +0000 rachylou 2272653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pants are incredible! The coats are very different. If there’s room for both, I say keep them. If only one, I vote for the longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-1#post-2272644 Mon, 18 Jul 2022 21:00:21 +0000 Eliza 2272644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Consider yourself enabled. Pants are amazing on you. Fresh silhouette with legs for miles. The 2 coats have totally different vibes, weights and functions if my screen does not deceive me. They are both special one you; the smiles don’t lie. </p>
