These Rag & Bone silk cargo pants...

catgirl

reminded me of the third outfit in this link Jonesy posted, which I ADORE. They're on sale if I can find them in my size somewhere. Yay or nay?

The outfit they show on the stylebop website is fabulous. I think you could get a lot of use out of them. I wonder if they have to be dry cleaned?

I think they are super! I know the leg pockets are probably not actually supposed to be used... but i find them incrediably handy if i am going out and dont want to carry a bag (which is frequent) and it is too warm to wear a jacket (my usual pockets go-to).

I like them! Love how they are tucked into slouchy boots in the first link!

Anyone else want to chime in before I start a mad search? This price is a bit steep...

I really like them...the only thing that concerns me is that they are silk. Una, remember, I am uber-practical, so keep that in mind....LOL !

I think may be too precious for this type of pant.

IK, those are cute! But I'm in love with the cargo style and the POCKETS.

Had a silk olive pair from DKNY I wore to death back in '08. So now I've been there done that.

IK, your search efforts are always welcome (and you find some amazing things!).

Anna, I'm going to take that as a yay. How does the brand run size-wise?

Ditto Isabel - 100% silk pants for casual wear? I think I'd have them snagged in under an hour.

Anna - How did you manage in them? Are silk pants more durable than they seem?

I only own a Rag & Bone cardigan and jacket (the long tail jacket). They run true to size. Rag & Bone/Jean did not fit me at all. I've never tried their pants.
The silk cargos, after a while the inner thigh seam started to stretch out. But I was also much heavier then.

I don't care for Rag&Bone /Jean. Their higher-end line continues amazing IMO. And the older stuff you can still get on Yoox and on ebay is one of my favorite lines.

I have some silk BR cargos very similar (only khaki green) from 2 years ago. Must be hitting ebay about now. Mine are sadly too big for me now or I'd be trying to wear them again.

You could so rock all those pockets on your slim bottom half! Cute! The silk would be really nice and drapey too.

I say YAY!

(On the silk concerns, Indian women seem to do tight silk and cotton-silk blended churidar pants a lot, and while I can't say they wear as well as plain workhorse cotton, I think the 'fragility' of silk is a bit of a myth. Silk fibre is actually very strong indeed. It really depends on the exact fabrication, which is as true of wool --- which by the way is considered 'fragile' where I live! --- or fine cotton. I don't even bother with dry-cleaning most of my silk things, though I have only a few.)
