I didn't mind the looseness in the leg, but the crotch was a bit baggy, which might be reduced by taking the waist in. &nbsp;They are baggier than they appear in the pics, especially after a few hours wear. &nbsp;I realize they are jegging material, and not stiff enough denim, so I shouldn't have really sized up. &nbsp;They are really comfy though and the looseness is nice, so I think I will take them to get altered. &nbsp;Thanks for the votes! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891860 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 23:01:49 +0000 pil 891860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ditto! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891856 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 22:56:56 +0000 Aida 891856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great pants, another vote to alter! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891594 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 17:32:23 +0000 rachylou 891594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ They are cute!

The sweater needs a cami but it is cute! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891440 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 15:27:48 +0000 Diana 891440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think the plaid pants are cool, and aside from the waist they do not look too big.&nbsp; The waist is ridiculous though... I'd probably get them taken in there.&nbsp; <br /><br />I think Paige pants are just huge at the waist.&nbsp; I have this problem with my Paige Liberty skinnies too... although mine are not quite so gapey as yours, I do need to wear a belt.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891419 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 15:18:20 +0000 Tina.b 891419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I really like the pattern! You should see if you can get the waist taken in to make them fit. These will be very versatile for spring. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891400 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 15:03:24 +0000 Tanya 891400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I really like the pattern! &nbsp;An since they are good quality I would say they are worth of an extra $20 of an investment to fix the waistband. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891397 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 15:01:16 +0000 Raisin 891397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yah they are Paige brand Tanya. &nbsp;I didn't pay much for them though, well as far as brand name jeans go. &nbsp;I think around $50. &nbsp;I guess no one else liked that pattern https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891392 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:58:34 +0000 Anonymous 891392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think they are really cute. I would take the waist in and wear them with abandon.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891390 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:58:02 +0000 Tanya 891390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well, I love the pants, plus I was reading online that plaid will be huge for the upcoming fall/winter season. &nbsp;Are they a nice brand ? &nbsp;If yes, then I would definitely take them to the tailor to have the waist taken in, that is an easy remedy. &nbsp; &nbsp;Love that sweater, I would personally add a matching cami underneath. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891383 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:51:18 +0000 Parsley 891383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hmm, the waist is huge, but maybe if they fit OK everywhere else you could just have the waist taken in. They're cute pants! I'd love to see them with a charcoal or black top... https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891381 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:49:49 +0000 Raisin 891381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes, I need a cami, lol! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891380 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:48:31 +0000 Raisin 891380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ok, sorry for the bad pic, I added one just straight on, and one of the waistband. &nbsp;The pants are so stretchy they still "fit" the leg, though the knee is baggy. &nbsp;The waist is where they are huge.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891368 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:38:58 +0000 Parsley 891368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ It's hard to tell in the picture, but if they feel that big and loose I would consign them.<br /><br />And yes, I think a cami would be a good idea with the sweater, although sometimes if you use flash it shows things that aren't seen normally.<br /><br />I love that sweater, btw! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891363 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:37:10 +0000 Jaime 891363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love the look of the plaid but the way you are standing it is hard to say anything about the fit. I do think plaid is sufficiently different than leopard to keep both in theory. The sheerness question is probably a factor of your comfort level and where you are going today. Despite all these qualifications, you look great in the photo!<br /><br />ETA - I enlarged the picture and will say I love the plaid bottoms and think I would suggest a cami! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---plaid-plants-should-i-keep-or-consign#post-891358 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:33:11 +0000 Raisin 891358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ WIWing today to try to decide if I keep these pants. &nbsp;So I liked the idea of plaid and grey, so got these and I sized up hoping for slouchy...but did not realize they are like SUPER stretchy material, so now they are just loosy and the waist is huge. &nbsp;Like I could take 4-5in out huge. &nbsp;So I thought I might just consign them since I have the ON leopard grey jeans. &nbsp;Or should I get the waist taken in? &nbsp;<br /><br />Also, you're seeing my new favorite sweater again. &nbsp;Love this one. &nbsp;No cami today, gasp! &nbsp;Do I need one, I have a nube bra on but maybe that's too sheer a top?<br /><br />No time for hair today, bangs to the side!<br /><br /><br />
