Dana (ironkurtin) found me these R13 jeans on Yoox.

Are they too similar to my blue harem jeans and black cross-over jeans?
They'd be a tiny bit baggier on me because they're one up from my usual size. I do like how they remind me of Angie's jodphur jeans.

They remind me of Angie's jophur jeans too. I like them but are they different enough from your other jeans that you'll get a lot of wear out of them?

I like them! I don't think they are too similar to the harem jeans and the crossovers. If you don't get those, I may seriously consider them (my attempt at an R13 crossover didn't work out)!

I Love. But - in my wardrobe, if I already had the harem jeans and the cross-overs, these would just not be worth the money to get another pair that fell into the same "category!"

I think these are really different from the harem jeans - the fabric is at the sides more, and very different fro the crossover jeans, which are black. Of course, I'm th eone who found them for AG...

I worry a little about the high waist on these. The rise on my jeans is VERY low, and one of the reasons the silhouette is anchored.

But they could be fun. You never know how things will fit until you give them a bash.

Hm... in the pic, they remind me of the harem jeans, but on your body that may not be the case. For $100 for R13, they may be worth a try.

I like these a lot, but I do feel they'd fill a very similar role to your harem jeans - even tho they're different.

I don't love these - they remind me more of those 80s yoked front jeans. Much prefer the ones you already have!

I hope you got them to at least give them a try. I think they are similar to your harem jeans and might be a bit of a duplication. But not sure until you see the fit on you.

I love Angie's jodhpur jeans and the R13 crossover jeans, but something about these is not doing it for me. Maybe it's the rise, as Angie pointed out. I'm not crazy about the way the pocket creates the shape of the jean, how you see the lining. I would be inclined to look for a truer jodhpur shape if that's what you're after.

But for that good of a price and easy returns, why not try them?

The rise and the gathers remind me of Mom Jeans -- so be careful about the fit!!! You don't want to be mistaken for having made an ill-chosen purchase on a thrifting expedition.

You have to be careful with a style like that. Between the high waist, the pleats, and the flared pockets, you might look like you're wearing a diaper. UNLESS you're as skinny as the model, and even then it's questionable...

Would you wear these with heels? I like the idea of them with stilettos, but can't really imagine them with flats - I'd worry about leg shortening.....
