				<description>&#060;p&#062;As a M&#038;amp;S fan, I appreciate the info about ordering from them. &#038;nbsp;Will def put them on my list for browsing/shopping. &#038;nbsp;I think the trousers will be fine, and the button down is a 10 from the get go. &#038;nbsp;Nice updates, Suz!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Ms.Mary,&#060;/b&#062; let's hope I don't regret my decision to keep. They are indeed snug in the tum. I haven't worn them for a full day yet though. Will keep you posted. I have a feeling that wearing them they may stretch some.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Minaminu,&#060;/b&#062; that's really interesting about the Jaeger purchase! Wow. I hope they maintain that high quality.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I ordered those jeans in blue denim and they were perfect in every way except the waist. I had a serious talk with myself and realized they were just tight enough that I would never be comfortable in them, so back they went. *sigh*&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;So I can enjoy them vicariously on you!!&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Great find and super hairstyle! Both blouse and trousers fits you beautifully and it seems that M&#038;amp;S is on a great strike, I noticed that the quality of garnements and sryle seems to have improved this year, they even purchased Jaeger (well known english heritage brand that went in liquidation a while ago)

				<description>&#060;p&#062;For Canadians - Ordering from M&#038;amp;S Canada is a breeze. NO problem at all. The only problem for me was slow delivery. But they did warn deliveries might be slower than average, and it always takes longer for items to arrive on the Island, for obvious reasons. I think if you live in a larger metropolitan centre, delivery would be quicker.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I agree -- this is a subtle version of the silhouette, which probably works better on my short frame. I'll keep you posted on how they work out!&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I love the balloon cut! Pants that taper at ankle work great for my thick legs and I believe you feel your legs to be “athletic” too.  Joggers often don’t give enough space for my calves, but balloon pants seem to be cut just slightly bigger.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Brooklyn,&#060;/b&#062; I am SO with you on the knee. I had to do some weeding this afternoon and oh boy, my knee is &#060;b&#062;NOT &#060;/b&#062;happy about it. I can walk (a lot). I can jump. I can hopscotch and hike. What I can't do, apparently, is spend any time kneeling. Lesson learned.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I hope you continue to improve. I guess healing just takes longer at this age. My age being greater than yours, maybe you'll be a bit luckier!&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Yes, the balloon effect is quite moderate on these. Note I ordered the short or petite. They are a teeny bit short in the rise but I have a long rise, and I'm pretty sure they will relax. I'm going to wear them tomorrow and see. If I like them enough, I'll order the grey pair. The price is right.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I would say they fit pretty TTS.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;unfrumped,&#060;/b&#062; I agree, they are a bit like a BF style in a way -- the nipped in ankle gives them structure. A narrow ankle is always good on me. And &#060;b&#062;LaPed,&#060;/b&#062; you're so right -- with my bum and thighs they would never be loose in those areas! Well, actually, these are loose in the thigh but they are snug on bum and hip and waist, then loose all the way down to ankle. But they are a comfy style for me because not thigh sucking.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;These are great. The balloon effect is quite subtle. I’m tempted!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;The top looks fantastic too.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I hope your knee is improving. Mine is about 90% back to normal but the last 10% is proving very stubborn.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Those are so cute!&#060;br /&#062;
I do think I kind the less exaggerated version- it seems easier to work into wardrobe though may not get as much trend- rave.&#060;br /&#062;
It’s just a little like BF jeans, in a way- though they’re wide, the balloon style ankle reins them in , and creates some associations with one’s ankles and feet.
