As others said, could you cut out the lining? You could wear them with tights or silk long underwear bottoms instead. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1112693 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 04:19:29 +0000 Deborah 1112693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear you. Why is it they seem to cut the lining of some garments one size smaller than the actual garment? Hope you fiend a nice new pair, and this outfit does look good despite the discomfort. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1112687 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 04:13:01 +0000 Beth Ann 1112687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a jacket with sleeves like this.&nbsp; I know I could easily cut the lining out and hem at the shoulder line.&nbsp; But then, the tight lining makes my arms look smaller.&nbsp; Never mind that I can't move them above my waist.&nbsp; Tee.</p> <p>Hope you got yourself sorted! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1112552 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 02:31:10 +0000 Sveta 1112552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Von and Sam, two words only: fluid fit! I have the same thigh problem (and long inseam) so now I go for slouchy fit - mush more comfortable and fashion forward!<br />This sweater color looks spectacular on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1112543 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 02:27:13 +0000 Von 1112543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sam, I have the very same problem, slim fitting pants have been a thorn in my side! I made it to AT at opening time and for my 'just running in real quick', I tried on 9 pairs of pants...one fit. Pants shopping is the worst! To top it off, I had a coworker with me whom I'm sure was rethinking coming along! In the end...I ended up with some very pricy replacement gray pants, but they feel great and make me look slim, so I'm happy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1112252 Thu, 12 Dec 2013 21:33:53 +0000 Sam 1112252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG this is exactly my ongoing problem with pants! </p> <p>I have large thighs, party from being overweight, partly from genetics, and partly from doing a lot of squats in my workouts. I'm actually quite proud of my thighs, especially with the gains I've made in terms of strength lately, etc., but MAN they make shopping a nightmare. (Especially since I need 35-36in inseams, depending on the cut!)</p> <p>Every single pair of my pants goes to the tailor, and every single time she and I&nbsp;laugh about how the waist and hips will need to come in 5+ inches each.</p> <p>(And now that I'm done making this all about me, please let me add how nice I think your outfit is, fit issue notwithstanding. The sweater looks lovely on you, and the color combination is very well chosen.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1112246 Thu, 12 Dec 2013 21:21:08 +0000 Anonymous 1112246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! Greyscale, mine is mostly knee problems too. I hate feeling like my kneecaps are bruised! I think that is why I usually eschew jeggings. Been burned too many times! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1112155 Thu, 12 Dec 2013 19:49:08 +0000 gryffin 1112155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Von, you poor thing!!&nbsp; Lining tourniquet syndrome!!!&nbsp; Not fun!!&nbsp; The pants so look good on you, is it worth it to have the lining redone?&nbsp; Otherwise a visit to AT (who called it the mothership?) sounds like a good plan!!&nbsp; Good luck especially with the "sit' test!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1112150 Thu, 12 Dec 2013 19:46:07 +0000 Greyscale 1112150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have some standing-room-only jeans!

I'm chuckling as well.... been there, done that! &nbsp; Only with skirts.</p> <p>But you look great! &nbsp; Take comfort in that, until AT opens and you have an end to your misery. &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1111850 Thu, 12 Dec 2013 14:15:08 +0000 Catnip 1111850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I understand the feeling.&nbsp; There's nothing worse than an item of clothing that is too tight.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1111848 Thu, 12 Dec 2013 14:14:23 +0000 Anonymous 1111848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hahah! Sorry to laugh but I have done that so many times. I hope you find a good pair to replace them today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-standing-room-only#post-1111845 Thu, 12 Dec 2013 14:11:40 +0000 Von 1111845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And I do mean that LITERALLY.&nbsp; Any time I accidentally grab these pants, it's not until I'm getting in the car that I remember WHY they are stuffed in the back of the closet.&nbsp; It's because they have lining that's probably a size too small for my thighs!&nbsp; They fit so nice when I'm standing...but I can't sit OR do stairs...and can barely get in the car. They're a mess.&nbsp; I have had them for years waiting for "when my thighs get smaller", and they have...the pants are almost falling off at the waist and the thigh is STILL tight.&nbsp; It's time for them to go. </p> <p>I'm counting down for another 40 minutes until Ann Taylor opens and I'm running over to get new pants, because right now, I'm teetering on the edge of my chair trying not to cut off circulation :).&nbsp; I'm pretty sure these pants are the reason I stopped shopping at The Gap!&nbsp; </p> <p> </p>
