Oh, you are too adorable, Suz, and I wouldn't even think of taking your pants from you, even to borrow them for a second! You looked so great in EVERY iteration, that you really sold me on them. Sadly, Jeane pm'ed me and said there were no XS or S's in her store. I just have to learn that when Angie speaks and shows us the way, to jump a little bit faster!
Thank you for being so sweet! I was tempted to take up Una's idea of going to F21 and looking at their version (she texted me that weekend), but they were satin and she said the fabrication wasn't very good (she has the Leith pants, too) and IF they had been worth it, I might even have considered having my tailor add six-inch vertical zippers to the front of them, because THAT'S what I liked best about them. Unfortunately, it's just an idea at this point. But, I'll keep checking online. Are they a thin pant or do they feel like thin track pants? Whatever, they looked fabulous on you.
Oh yes, we booked a hotel this past weekend and will be staying in South Kensington at the Ampersand Hotel. I believe it's near the South Kensington tube (duh!) and possibly the Victoria and Albert Museum. I don't know much about London, but I'll keep you posted on my "list" of to-do's and check with you soon.
