What's that I've got on today? Could it be harem pants?? As a matter of fact, it is. Long was I skeptical of the trend, and long did I expect it to fade into oblivion, but it has persisted and finally I was forced to admit that I might want to give it a try, especially after I saw how great it looked on Angie.
When I saw this pair of harem pants on Gilt, I knew they were just perfect, but they were all sold out in my size by the time I saw them. For several months I would see other pairs, but I had the image of these in my head and nothing else seemed quite right. However, one of the important things to know about Gilt is that items sometimes come back a few times, so I was patient and kept checking the daily sales. Patience finally paid off; the pants showed up again and I snapped them up this time around.

I think the best thing about your harem pants is that they aren't incredibly oversized. They look super freaking chique, to be honest.
Ha ha! It proves how right I am that a stylish gal like you is wearing these!
these look awesome on you, I really like them.. you mostly seem to wear skirts so is nice to see these pants and that they look so good!!

Your pants look very nice; loose and comfy but not sloppy. The way harem pants are styled on Angie, the crotch is so baggy that I just can't see myself wearing them.
Thanks for showing another take on this trend!
I've been eyeing this belt on the UO website, it's great to see it styled!
I was just thinking they look more like jodpurs! Between that tunic(?), the wide (almost obi) belt and the faux-riding pants, you bring to mind a hard-riding Samurai.
In a fantastic way!
Those pants are great on you! They look fantastic!
I love these pants! But I don't know why they're called harem pants. Harem pants have a dropped crotch, don't they?
