Dress Pants: Help meeeeeeee

[Stan4dSteph]

I have actually had good luck with some skirts lately. I got a really cute one at Gap that I love.

I don't have any other suggestions besides what's been given already. Best of luck with the new job, though.

Steph isn't recommending LL Bean? Are you OK?

WHich brings to mind another possability - Eddie Bauer. They have different fits of pants and one may work for you.

And the photos are where?

Well, since she's having a hard time finding pants she likes when trying them on, I figured she might not be too interested in the mail order variety. But I do love the forward-seamed pants I got from them. I have 2 pair in different colors.

Moonliner, here ya go. If you want more details PM me.

Damn, I thought it was a link to the Jessica Rabbit outfit. Oh well. Congrats on the new job!

I believe these are the only photos and I think they were taken by Morrigoon.

Ooh! Fun Thread!

Now, if your'e anything like me, just go pantsless. Go ahead & ask my Boss- I show up to the office in nothing but stillettos & a thong. Isn't that business casual? It is to me. And remember-the stillettos have to be clear. Of course, my "office" is the dank showfloor & silver pole that is Bob's Classy Lady. The pride of Van Nuys.

I'm kidding!!!!

Honestly, I'm not a fan of pants! Unless they are jeans, capris or yoga pants. Or those new short palazzos that are all trendy right now? Those are seriously Heaven. We all wear them at the office! But anything "slack"? No thanks!

So..Nordstrom is definitely a wonderful choice! Having worked for Nordstrom, nothing makes me shudder more then that anniversary sale. Throngs and throngs of feral shoppers..yikes! However, you will get some killer bargains!

The Nordstom Rack, like Lisa mentioned, doesn't have quite the array Nordstrom does. However, I shopped there once and found a wicked deal on an Isaac Mizrahi dress and scored me some killer Versace pumps for $100.00 (they were originally $400.00) However, I've never even worn them. Everybody thinks they are heinous, but I love them. Think Pirates Of The Carribean shoes, but in pump form, and in lavender. Not practical, but then neither am I!

One of my dearest girlfriends swears by New York & Co.! I haven't shopped there yet, but I'd like to go!

If I were in search of dream pants, where would I go? Most likely online, but pants are one of those "try on in person" dealies...

I'm not sure! If this were a shoe thread, I'd be all over it like ham on rye. Or me on my boyfriend. Or me on a garden hose with a basketball.

I'll keep thinkin' of ideas!

Thank you Ally. I'll have to take pics of the shoes I bought. They are super uber cute. I found a pair of $130 Danskos for $35. I so rule.

Here is the list of places that I will be visiting in the next three days:

NY & CO
Nordstroms
Penneys
Ann Taylor Loft

$35 Danskos? Where?

Nordstroms Rack. They say they were worn and refinished but they look brand spanking new to me. I had no idea what brand they were or how much Danskos cost new when I bought them either. They are just cute.
