Astrid - I love that you mention I look comfortable in my own skin. That's EXACTLY what I want. Thank you
Deborah - it's actually in huge part because of your inspiring style that I began to think about and explore this drapey kind of look. So I thank you for that. And I do think you're quite right about how our eyes become accustomed to certain pant lengths and fits that we sometimes forget there are other options.
Lyn - I'm finding it a lot of fun to explore this new style.
Aida - I'm starting to look for more pieces that can do double duty for work and casual. It maximizes my budget and keeps my physical closet under control. I'm picturing the tank and pants with my Birks for casual wear. I think I would definitely need to roll the pants for flats.
Katie - oh I don't just have apple tendencies. That's my primary body shape. And these pants are so fab for my mid section. The waistband hits me in just the right spot and no muffin top at all. Very, very comfy.
Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I appreciate that you are all so supportive of me trying this new style direction. I'm having a blast!
