Printed Pants for Spring
It's my understanding that New York & Company has carried plus size for a few year now, but I've only recently learned of it. Back when I was straight and mid-sized, New York & Company was my jam, especially when they were Lerner's. As I gained weight, I was no longer able to shop with them, but at the same time the quality of their clothing changed for the worse. So when I saw the ad on Instagram, I immediately checked it out. Frankly, I wasn't impressed with what I saw, but I loved these pants. In the Spring, I searched for printed wide-leg pants, but never found a pair that I loved. Then I saw these. They are polyester instead of the jersey material I wanted, but I love the design. They are not the typical pull-on. They are designed like a trouser with slant pockets and a hook and bar closure. I really love the bright color. I don't normally gravitate towards florals, but this comes across as subtle which I like. I sized down to a 2X because lately when I purchase wide-leg pants in my size they are too big. In this case they are a little too tight in the hip and thigh. I would be able to sit comfortably without worrying about splitting them so I repurchased them in a 3X. Unfortunately, you can only return, not exchange. When I return the first pair, I'll have to pay a restock fee. Luckily, when I repurchased they were cheaper and I got a discount on top of the lower price so as they say 'a win is a win'
I love when I find a great buy out of season.
I'm looking forward to seeing what else this retailer will drop.
