Re: Wanted: Jeans made of lighter material for warmer months - suggestions?

Thank you for motivating me to Google cooler pants for summer!   I'm so disgusted with the Q's pants I have now - big and baggy in the butt and hips or material, especially white, feels like half cardboard.  I've had legs twisted and too short at the ankle or they shrunk after washing.  Been a Q pant lover for decades but not any more.

I like a jean look, but for summer they just don't feel comfortable!

 

I think the look lately has been more for the dark rinse or wash or whatever you call them, but I'm thinking the light color blue ones would look fresher.

 

I don't think I want gauze either.  I just want a jean to wear for my weekends and causual things.

 

Thanks!

I know!  I have so many ill-fitting jeans -- ones that just do nothing for me!!!  I need to sort them out and get rid of them.

 

I know what I am looking for has to be out there -- somewhere!  I have seen similar ones to what I am looking for in catalogs but they are either not in the right sizes or they want a fortune for them.  If I were a stay at home person and wore them more I might consider paying a ton, but since I work, I don't get to wear them all that much.

 

Hope  you also find what you want and if you do, please post!!!

That's awesome!  I haven't been to Goodwill in a long while.  Maybe I should check and see if they have anything.  Thanks!

Thank you for suggesting this.  Do they sell them here or on the "other" channel?

I have a couple pairs of white jeans that I rarely wear -- they are really stiff, too!  Yuck!!

 

I am on the hunt --- once again!!!

I have seen a couple pairs that were very washed but then they were patchy looking and some had the holes in them.  Not a good look for a 64 year old lady!  LOL!

Yeah, that's pretty much what I'm finding for the most part.  I guess probably a lot of people don't wear jeans in summer.  I do wear capri pants but I still love my jeans!!!

I wish I had a Penneys near me.  The closest one is like over an hour away!  It's hard to tell on-line what things are like as far as material, etc.  Your jeans sound nice!!
