Although I find them more substantial in terms of fabric weight than other leggings, I would also not wear them as pants (although I tend to call them pants in my WIW posts). I always make sure the top I'm wearing covers my rear end and is no shorter than my crotch point in the front. But the suede detailing in the front sets them apart from any other leggings I've seen IMHO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420224 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 12:23:25 +0000 Elizabeth P 1420224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww, thanks so much Jackie, Frannie, Una and Diane.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420170 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 08:54:44 +0000 Anonymous 1420170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Birthday!!

I really like the work outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420093 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 03:44:08 +0000 Elizabeth P 1420093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Suz, we cross posted. Thank you! Your support on here has meant the world to me, and has definitely helped me along the way. Re the pants, I'd say they are tts. I am almost always an 8, sometimes a 10 in skinnies, and these are 8's. I also tried the 10s, and they had a funny extra fabric poochiness in the crotch area. Sizing up was not my friend. And while they have five pockets, I would not wear them as pants. The fabric is very stretchy, thin ponte/thick legging weight. And did I mention they were comfortable? :). </p> <p>Thank you Shevia! I have no problem copying, at least not someone I know I'll never run into. Another joy of YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420059 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 03:10:30 +0000 Jaime 1420059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Birthday Elizabeth! Nothing wrong with copying, especially when you choose a great outfit. I like the sweater outfit too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420052 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 02:50:12 +0000 Elizabeth P 1420052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Michelle, I did. Well, as good as one can have on a work day :)</p> <p>And yes Shannon, they are. Thank you for extolling their virtues so strongly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420051 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 02:49:36 +0000 Suz 1420051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoaho -- wait a minute -- did we miss your birthday? YIKES!&nbsp;</p> <p>Happy birthday to the sharpest lemming ever! It's been such fun sharing your style journey and watching you blossom. You look more amazing every day. And I swear I am not saying that just because we have a lot of the same items, LOL. &nbsp;I have so enjoyed many of your threads this year, about closet numbers, management, and keep/ return. Wishing you a happy style year ahead.&nbsp;</p> <p>Oh, and this outfit is great, and I want to lemming you and Shannon on the leggings. Are they really leggings, or pants? And how is the sizing? And are they really faux suede? I love the sounds of that in the cold.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420039 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 02:14:50 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1420039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoo hoo!!! You look fabulous in that first outfit. Absolutely love it! And I'm so glad you got the leggings - they're wonderful aren't they?</p> <p>Happy Birthday beautiful lady </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420020 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 01:32:38 +0000 Michelle 1420020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did someone say birthday??? Hope you had a great one, Elizabeth!<br />Your reply </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-lemming-goes-to-the-office#post-1420014 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 01:24:58 +0000 Elizabeth P 1420014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, when Denise (Cocolion) posted her NYE Outfit here:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-december-2014" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ember-2014</a></p> <p>I knew I had to copy it... literally!  Only mine is heading to the office, not out for the evening.  Thanks Denise... it's always great to have new ideas on how to wear pieces, esp favourite ones.</p> <p>I did buy the Zara top all by myself (honest!), but I'm copying Denise blatently to make this outfit.  I definitely lemminged the AT vest, I think even from Denise several months ago.  And the pants are the ones that Shannon raves about... her comment about them being the most comfortable pants EVER, combined with a sale, and available from a Canadian supplier with free shipping screamed "gotta try me".  And she's right on... they are unreal.  For any of you that have issues with leggings falling down, you must try these.  I really don't think they can.</p> <p>Anyway... the outfit.  Comments welcome!</p> <p>Oh, might as well add what I wore this evening, out for my birthday supper on a cold cold night - so a switch to a cashmere sweater seemed appropriate.  Necessary even. </p>
