(Also wore slippers all day instead of the booties, sadly.) But I will wear my grey tweed-print puffer (oops, I guess I don't have a find), or blush jacket or wine windbreaker over these jeans.<br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans/page/2#post-2176498 Sat, 06 Mar 2021 02:02:50 +0000 Anonymous 2176498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the style and colors and that print on you. I like the way they fit but can also imagine that a size smaller would also look great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans/page/2#post-2176492 Sat, 06 Mar 2021 01:44:10 +0000 smittie 2176492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great pants on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans/page/2#post-2176363 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 18:39:11 +0000 ChristelJ 2176363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, they are so very hip and cool on you! The whole outfit is great.

What kind of a topper willl you layer over?-just curious. Love the top, too!!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans/page/2#post-2176312 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 15:17:15 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2176312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Ha ha, Star! <br /></div><div>Thank you Liesbeth. This color jumped at me, and I hope you find your mud blue. <br /></div><div>RobinF, me, too. I was surprised how Iiked the top with them, style-wise. I think the asymmetry helps.</div><div>unfrumped, I don't know how long into warm weather they would work. Certainly for Seattle summers, where 60s and 70s are more typical than 80s, yes. The fabric is pretty much a medium weight. Not the heaviest&nbsp; in my wardrobe, but not the lightest either.</div><div>Thanks, Kelly! I think you could certainly wear them! There's even a review by a petite woman who was pleasantly surprised.<br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans/page/2#post-2176309 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 14:27:32 +0000 kellygirl 2176309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, can you ever pull these off. The color and the styling are just gorgeous on you. If I was taller, I'd be tempted. Love this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans/page/2#post-2176306 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 14:02:48 +0000 unfrumped 2176306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, tgat color is great, and the print you chose for the top— just perfect.<br /> Wondering if the all- cotton and looser fit makes them more wearable if warmer temps than straight- er cut jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans/page/2#post-2176298 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 13:39:17 +0000 RobinF 2176298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these on you! Great fit and color. Love your top too, it's great how much you wear the items you make. I have assumed this style pant could only be worn with short, fitted tops so nice to see how good it looks with your longer drapey one.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176279 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 09:58:23 +0000 Liesbeth 2176279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After the success of my aubergine pair I'm on the lookout for a summery mud-blue pair too. I love how these fit on you and the great styling with the fluid top &amp; partial tuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176270 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 07:09:33 +0000 Star (Lise) 2176270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous!&nbsp; I love everything.&nbsp; I thought I was not into balloon jeans but you changing my mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176268 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 06:55:23 +0000 Bijou 2176268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning on you too - I loved these on LaPed and they are equally gorgeous on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176252 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 03:55:34 +0000 Brooklyn 2176252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Love the whole outfit. I’m so impressed with that colour. So unusual for jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176235 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 02:13:28 +0000 Jaime 2176235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect on you and styled beautifully! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176228 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 01:43:49 +0000 rachylou 2176228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely colour and indeed styled perfectly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176222 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 01:13:38 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2176222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Thanks, Janet!</div><div><br /></div><div>LaPed, I like the idea of dark green and burgundy with this color, too. They will also go well with navy, stone/off white. I think I have lots of things that will go with them. I realize I wore them with black/gray the other time I wore them, too (with the sweater in the Finds below; the rainbow colors are a bit more vivid in real life).</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176218 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 00:58:33 +0000 LaPed 2176218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also meant to say — they look so good on you and I can’t believe how differently they fit your legs compared to mine! And your gorgeous sweater has inspired me to put together a whole black/white/grey capsule around these jeans. I’d mostly been thinking of pairing them with dark greens and burgundies... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176211 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 00:49:49 +0000 Janet 2176211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those suit you well! And again, I’m impressed with your seamstress skills — the top is great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176208 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 00:38:51 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2176208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Thanks, all!</div><div>Oh, <b>Laurie</b>, never say never! haha! Thank you.</div><div>Thanks, <b>Suz</b>. Glad to be your model! They are a pretty high rise; I can't recall if that's something you like?</div><div><b>Lisa</b>, thanks for that insight. I hadn't thought at all about the difference between wearing this top with skinnies or this silhouette, and your point is a good one. I was also kind of thinking only shorter tops would go with these jeans, so I'm glad to find this one works.</div><div>Aw, thanks, <b>Angie</b>!</div><div><b>StyleFan,</b> I look forward to seeing yours from Everlane.<br /></div><div><b>Jenava</b>, I have admired your purple J Crew lantern pants, too. I agree we have simpatico styles.</div><div><b>kkards,</b> thank you! I was playing around to see if I wanted to change the length (decided not), and I tried cuffing these. I didn't like the effect at all. Just didn't work for me with this leg shape. <br /></div></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176206 Fri, 05 Mar 2021 00:23:08 +0000 kkards 2176206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok...now i see, i bought a pair of barrel leg jeans and something was off, they just make me feel really short and stumpy...but now i think i see what the issue is. Mine are WAY long, and so i cuffed them, but yours short but with the high shaft boots make them leg lengthening&nbsp;<br />nice&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176202 Thu, 04 Mar 2021 23:54:56 +0000 Jenava 2176202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it!&nbsp; I feel our styles are often similar; I am wearing my J.

You have the right overall look for this ,and the artsy top and boots are perfect choices. &nbsp;Imagine this top with a pair of skinny jeans in the same colour, and the vibe is totally different and not at all as interesting and current . &nbsp;Nicely done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-balloon-jeans#post-2176180 Thu, 04 Mar 2021 21:51:36 +0000 Suz 2176180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them!! This is a style I'm eager to try so I'm grateful to you for modelling them!&nbsp; </p>
