I had a crazy weekend and am just getting caught up. It's a snowy, cold evening and I have loved reading every insightful bit of feedback, as well as all of the lovely encouraging words!! Honestly and truly, I&nbsp;can say the only reason the sweatpants&nbsp;worked is I'm learning to trust myself more and have fun with clothes and just go with my heart and instincts -- all thanks to YLF and you lovely, lovely women.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>CocoLion</b>, thank &nbsp;you!!</p> <p><b>E,&nbsp;</b> it is becoming one of my favorite trouser shapes. I have to say, I was a bit apprehensive about wearing them. Even though I "felt" it, I still was worried, even after Angie has reassured me that track pants are wonderful for hourglass/pear shapes. I sincerely hope I can match up to my style descriptors and not disappoint you!!! I realized just this past week&nbsp;that my closet doesn't necessarily live up to my&nbsp;descriptors. So I've been doing yet some more sifting and sorting. I need more flowy things with structure, more glitz, more glam. (I think I will have to do some sewing...) &nbsp;</p> <p></div><div></div><div></div><div><b>Aida</b>, I work at library, located in a mountain village. So everything is very casual. I was wondering about "finishing" the look with more sparkle and makeup. Thank you for pointing that out!&nbsp;I def like the ritz and the glitz. Something for me to work on incorporating more of.&nbsp;</div><div><br /><b>lisap,&nbsp;</b>I have booties! next time I'll experiment with those! What a great idea! Yes, more accessories. After reviewing the photos again I think the top and such need more to make it stand out as a whole look.&nbsp;<br /></div><div><b><br /></b><b>Suz</b>, that color is one of my absolute favorites. For some reason I don't care to wear much red. But something intensely rose/fuschia pink and&nbsp;I'm there!</div></div><div><div><div><div><div></div><div><div><div></div><div><div></p> <ul></ul> <p></div></div></div><div></div></div></div><div></div></div><div><div><b>Firecracker</b>, I like it best with the jacket too. Gives more structure and polish. I wish I'd had time for more makeup. Next time... Yes, they are mens' sweat pants! I don't know where it came from.&nbsp;It was one of those days that I just had to have comfy, but had to figure out to take things up a notch, and also add structure so they weren't just "sweatpants." I just can't do anything too plain or simple: it bothers the heck out of me.&nbsp;<br /><div></div></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Shevia,&nbsp;</b>I love your taste in shoes, so I'm so glad you liked them paired with the outfit!!!<br /></div></div></div></div><div><div><div><div><div></div><div><div><div></div><div><div></p> <ul></ul> <p></div></div></div><div></div></div></div><div></div></div><div><div><span><b>crutcher,&nbsp;</b>thank you! I am glowing. I would like&nbsp;to&nbsp;next&nbsp;time pair with booties. But the&nbsp;morning was going fast and I was too tired to will my feet into booties. But next time...yes! BOOTIES! I am so, so thrilled you're trying some track pants, and sequined no less!!! I'm most delighted for you! It is a season to give to others,&nbsp;but isn't it nice to be stylishly dressed when you giving out gifts I looked at the pants and they are&nbsp;simply marvelous &lt;3 &lt;3 &lt;3&nbsp;</span></div></div></div></div><div><div><div><div><div></div></div><div></div></div></div><div></div></div><div><div></div></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1413233 Fri, 19 Dec 2014 11:33:37 +0000 crutcher 1413233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Keturah, Aren't you the fashionista?....I love your look with the casual luxe...I especially like the jacket for a finished and polished appearance...I would like to see this with booties or pumps...Very creative...You have such a flair with your fashion words...Loveth it... </p> <p>(Did you see the Bobeau sequin track pants that Laura posted?...I was inspired by your look and (blush) ordered them for me...I am not supposed to be shopping for moi but for others...smile...but I do...Tell me what you think of them...)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1413197 Fri, 19 Dec 2014 05:09:16 +0000 Jaime 1413197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like the rolled hem a lot and the whole outfit looks good to me. I think the silver flats add a lot to the non-rolled out of bed vibe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1413168 Fri, 19 Dec 2014 04:32:29 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1413168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job of styling the pants for work. I, too, especially like the version with the jacket. I like your idea of adding makeup, too, for even more polish. I can't get over the fact that these are not just sweatpants, but <i>men</i>'s sweatpants. I don't even know how you thought to try them! But they work, and I like your rolled hem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1413165 Fri, 19 Dec 2014 04:27:42 +0000 Suz 1413165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it a lot with the topper. They rolls worked out really well. Love the colour of your top, too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1413048 Fri, 19 Dec 2014 00:06:45 +0000 Anonymous 1413048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it too, and the only thing I'd do differently to polish it up for a work environment would be to swap out the ballet flats for something with more presence: &nbsp;a bootie, a pump, or &nbsp;wedge sneaker. &nbsp;And I agree with Aida - add on the accessories and makeup, and you will rock this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1413045 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 23:56:38 +0000 Aida 1413045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Quite like it with the topper; without it's a bit too casual looking for a work outfit to me, but of course that always depends on the work environment. I do think you could "finish" this outfit a bit further, if you wanted to. Really like the idea of glittery accents, and with your previously mentioned style descriptors I think you could go even heavier on the glitz. Maybe a stack of sparkly bracelets (or mix a leather cuff in with them), or a scarf that's got some shimmer, a metal boyfriend watch, some sparkly crystal studs. And perhaps a swipe of colorful gloss </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1412910 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 18:33:05 +0000 E 1412910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this shape of trouser, both in general and on you specifically! So I think it definitely works. I hope you post more outfits; I'm so in love w your style descriptors, and I selfishly want to see them put into action. hehe </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1412887 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 17:45:23 +0000 CocoLion 1412887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This works! &nbsp;I think you look fashionable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1412874 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 17:15:40 +0000 Keturah 1412874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, thank you!!! I've never been a "sporty" girl. But jogger pants are worth it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1412855 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 16:07:42 +0000 Thistle 1412855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun outfit. Sporty lux indeed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-mens-sweatpants-to-work#post-1412842 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 15:43:12 +0000 Keturah 1412842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, sweatpants, joggers, track pants --&nbsp;somehow I've fallen in serious love with them!!</p> <p><div>I bought these sweatpants from Old Navy, men's section. They didn't come with cuffed bottoms. So, to keep things a bit sleek and on trend, I french rolled the hems into cuffs. Why French rolling pant legs went out with the 80s and 90s I'll never know. I think it's so gorgeous on the right pair of pants!</div><div><br />My only problem is I think they aren't as flattering from the rear view. But I'm so comfy and cozy at work today that I don't really mind.</p> <p>I paired them with gorgeous, glitzy things with sheen, to keep them from entering "I just rolled out of bed and showed up" territory.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sweat Pant - Old Navy<br />Fuchsia silk and lace blouse - Chloe K (Nordstrom Rack)<br />Jacket - Elle (Kohls)<br />Rayon scarf - Target<br />Silver ballet flats - thrifted<br />No jewelry, no makeup. (Kinda need some makeup maybe??)&nbsp;</p> <p>What do you all think? Feedback sincerely appreciated!<br /></div> </p>
