The new pants and curved hem really works wonderfully. The blue is fantastic with the black too. I had never considered JJill before... but seeing you rocking it here I think I should! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1159285 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 13:41:40 +0000 El Cee 1159285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so lovely, sleek and sophisticated… and you are a very good spokesmodel for J. Jill. (I will have to check out your links.) BTW --&nbsp;You do not look the least bit "bloated", but I certainly understand that feeling of discomfort. Love your camel coat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1159269 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 13:26:12 +0000 Anonymous 1159269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know winter bloat well -- although I don't see any here!</p> <p>I love how streamlined this looks and that blue is gorgeous on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1159268 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 13:23:42 +0000 Janet 1159268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No evidence of bloat in sight, and you look beautiful, Sona!</p> <p>An aside: Thanks for the info on your wonderful drapey Ronen Chen pants. I tried them, but the size was a little small on me, and I didn't find the cut nearly as flattering on me as it was on you. I guess because of the way I'm built, the volume all went out to the side rather than drape flatteringly. I will admire them on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1159263 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 13:20:14 +0000 Sona 1159263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Deb: no knee bagging to report on.</p> <p>:)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1159202 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 07:30:06 +0000 Jeanie 1159202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Having winter bloat here too and I can't blame it on flying! &nbsp;Love your solution. &nbsp;I agree with Angie that you look better than the model. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1159187 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 06:14:45 +0000 san 1159187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful Sona.&nbsp; I love the pointy toe boots and the blue with the black.&nbsp; So classy.&nbsp; You always look classy!</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1159185 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 06:06:37 +0000 deb 1159185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those pants look really good on you.

This appeals to the Urban Prince in me. As for post-travel bloat, that is a really common and annoying occurrence. The change in diet plus the jet lag contributes to an overall drain on our bodies that can show up in digestion as well as fatigue. So you are not alone.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1158728 Wed, 05 Feb 2014 18:15:12 +0000 Karie 1158728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like those pants - they look dressy and comfy, always a winning combination. I may have to pop in to our local J.Jill and see if the regular length is long enough for me (I'm 5'8"). The tall size would probably be too long in the rise since they have a high waistband.</p> <p>I love black and blue together. You wear those colors well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1158668 Wed, 05 Feb 2014 17:10:34 +0000 Greyscale 1158668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a great outfit and the pointed boots make it shine!</p> <p>I gained a few&nbsp;pounds this winter, plus I have some minor digestive issues that make pressure on my tummy area not pleasant. Not really a problem but enough to make all my jeans feel meh.&nbsp;So I just gave in yesterday and bought a new pair of jeans one size bigger. Definitely worth having clothing that fits us comfortably and makes us feel fab.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-beat-winter-bloat#post-1158667 Wed, 05 Feb 2014 17:09:55 +0000 Sona 1158667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>links to the pants and tees:</p> <p><b>pants:</b> j Jill slim leg pants. size down-one size. although inseam&nbsp; on the regular reads 30.5 inches it falls very well and reached my ankles/shoes appropriately- I am 5ft 6inches tall for reference.&nbsp;87%rayon,13%lycra spandex</p> <p><a href="http://www.jjill.com/jjillonline/product/itempage.aspx?BID=450817717&amp;rPFID=14&amp;item=BS045D&amp;h=M&amp;sk=M" rel="nofollow">http://www.jjill.com/jjillonli.....&#038;sk=M</a></p> <p><b>whisper weight cotton tees:</b> ( pima cotton and modal rayon).

My weight has not changed even a lb but my belly is swollen- my wit and wisdom jeans which normally fit my lower belly&nbsp;perfectly have been giving me muffin top: this has never happened in the past.</p> <p>I was tired of whining. And feeling like nothing fit or felt too tight.</p> <p>Something had to be done. </p> <p>Serendipitously I received a J Jill catalog in the mail&nbsp; this weekend.</p> <p>Come Monday I&nbsp;headed to our local store. I bought the 'new' Wearever pants in the slim leg. I also bought a couple of layering T-s that have curved/shirt tail hems.</p> <p>This outfit is nothing special but it worked well to combat the winter bloat. The pants have a high elastic waistband and have great slouch at the ankles.</p> <p>J Jill pants</p> <p>J Jill blue tee</p> <p>Eliza J black jacket</p> <p>Tildon pointy toe booties</p> <p>Helene Berman camel coat.</p>
