Keep or Return

Debbie

I bought a pair of Wide legged jeans fro BR Factory and I am not sure. First I didn’t realize they were so wide. Secondly if I cannot wear them this fall I am not keeping. First picture is with sandals second with boots. I apologize for the hair and make up it is the end of the day.

What do you think? All comments are welcome.

My first impression is that I like them and you could wear them with your boots for sure. But the angle makes it hard to say whether they might work better a bit shorter. I hope others will weigh in!

Hard to tell from the pictures but aren’t they a bit too long? It is not easy to find one’s perfect length for a wide leg style.

They look good for a Texas winter and not too wide. You just need to give yourself time to adjust. Keep and have a styling session.maybe you will want them a bit shorter and/or narrower. I have some in white heavy linen and wear them mostly in summer with bare legs. I like #1 and #3 best.

Thank-you-Shevia, Irina and Joy, wide legs are a challenge for me. The length and then do they make me look short and squatty. I think I am in a bit of a funk. I have been returning like crazy.
Thank-you for looking!

I like them. From #2, it looks like they are more full length than cropped on you - but I don't think anything is wrong with that.

Definitely great for Fall!

You rock wide crops, Debbie! A very swish, dramatic and elegant silhouette on you! LOVE the white

The length is great. I wonder if you might want to try a size up to compare?

Of course you can wear them in a TX Fall!

To me, they aren't amazing but just OK. I've seen other items on you that I've liked more. It will be interesting to see whether sizing up will make a difference.

I love them for you especially with the blue button down shirt and the tan mules-and maybe you can wear it untucked, or with a lower looser fake knot (on hips this time) to reign in the volume like a welt? BUT I can relate to your remark of "I didn’t realize they were so wide". I love me white jeans/pants for summer, and always have a few pairs---but they are mostly cigarette/straight cut--and realised culotte and wide legs are a bit tricky in white (which I also have for fall in tweeds or darker colors). They make for a really huge amount of light color on my not so slim and not at all petite self. This can be further emphasised by stiffness of the true thick cotton twill fabric from which jeans tend to be made of. I tried some but returned all- and still looking for a much more drapey and thinner fabric and not exactly that wide for me- guess that would be rather a looser straight/bootcut fit what I want and so keep wide legs for fabrics more drapey like ponte or linen?
