ISO: biz casual crops

marianna

Hi - I need to add a few pairs of cropped pants to my spring/summer work wardrobe...

My criteria...
- Prefer machine washable
- Black is ok, but prefer some pattern or maybe color
- Needs to come in size 16
- Good fabric that doesn't bag out throughout the day
- Open to any style of crops

Can anyone share some links to cropped pants you've had good experience with?

Thanks!

There is a Canadian brand called Lisett e, which is sold in the US too, http://www.dream-pants.ca/LISE.....aQodPhcEbw

Lots of the better retailers I work with sell them, and to astounding success. I bought a pair last summer -and there is nothing wrong with them other than they are black and white polka dot . Which was the most ridiculous thing for me to buy but I got talked into them by a sales person. Imminently wearable, comfortable , well fitting and flattering pants. The company even advertises in Vogue and In Style.....and it got an Oprah endorsement not too long ago.

Lisa, thanks. They sound interesting.... and no taxes/shipping to the US. Wish their website was a little more enticing though!

Talbots Perfect Crops and Hampshire Ankle Pants. Both great fitting, available in size 16 and good quality fundamentals for work. Available also in curvy fit (which works very well for me).

Oh, I know! Isn't that website the worst? But the pants really are nice for everyday wear.

I really like these if an ankle pant will work. I have 3 colors.

I really like the Perfect Form cropped pants at WHBM. I have them in several colors, and they're still in perfect condition after 3-4 years. Now you have me eyeing them in red;-)

Thank you all! I will try all these suggestions. I was at Loft yesterday and tried on their Marissa fit and that was pretty good too. I liked the fabric. Any exerperience with Loft pants?

I second Carter's suggestions, and am adding these - which do come in colours.

I bought a pair of WHBM crops this Spring, and I adore them. Mine, unfortunately, are their fall weight ponte, which won't be available until August or September. I'm thinking Carter's version might have a similar cut and fabric quality. I wear them in a 14, but they come in a 16, too, I'm sure.

Another positive for WHBM -- I don't have the crops, but my white ankle pants are on their 2nd year, and they have held up wonderfully , and the fit is fantastic.

Thanks for the further praise of the WHBM crops! I think I'll order those (maybe in red). I've never worn anything from WHBM before so I hope they work.

Angie, I think I tried those Loft crops at the Loft store yesterday (tried a size down). Nice fit and good fabric. I think I'll order those in my correct size to try as well.
