Ooh. I love them on you, Carole. I do understand they can take some getting used to. But you most certainly can pull them off. I hope you will keep and experiment some more.

I'm having to send back. The XL fit with plenty of ease, except in the knee and calves, which were inexplicably snug -- they looked fine standing, but pulled and strained when I would squat or bend. And the waist, which was high (and good for me), was far too loose. Since the drawstring is only on 1/2 of the band, I'd be losing my pants every time I bent over!

I will enjoy them on you -- and they will be a great way to create new looks in your wardrobe.

Looks great!

Amazing with the sandals. I actually like slouchy pants with fitted tops as well as loose.

OMG, Carole, you have the perfect shape for this style, for sure! I think #3 and #4 are really fab. #6 definitely needs more work, but the foundation is already there. I also love to see the denim jacket with the slouchy pants. Gorgeous!

Carole, I think you have some great suggestions so I just wanted to chime in and say just how great these look on you. I have a pair similar without the zippers and I do think the eye needs to adjust. They honestly look stunning on you.

I'm waiting at the airport for a flight to Kauai ( so excited to get warmed up) but I had to come back to say how much I appreciate everyone's great suggestions and support for this look. I'll be anxious to try your ideas when I get back. I'm not giving up on these, they are just too comfortable and fun.

You are all the best and extra Fab!

Aloha
