Pros. Good qualityCons. None

It's difficult to find good pants online but these are pretty good, actually. They were recommended to me by my sister, and now I've recommended them to others from all the compliments I get. So let's get to the pros and cons because as we all know, clothes shopping online can be difficult and we need real, valid, blunt reviews that give us facts that we can use instead of vague commercial-like slogans.Pros:Very comfortable : These pants were a little "slicker" than I thought they'd be but not slippery. This isn't bad, just something to note. They are very comfortable and fit against the body nicely. Bluntly, I'm a girl with a bit of a tummy and finding pants to accommodate that is IMPOSSIBLE because if you're like me, you have to either find pants that ride so low, half your behind is sticking out or that ride so high, your bra is practically touching your pants because they never take into consideration that not all women have inward-curved abdomens. This one, though, I can wear however I like (they are a bit more high-rise but I put them right over my bellybutton). They're still comfortable, don't squeeze, don't cut into my belly when I sit, and don't leave hip marks.True to size: I normally wear either XL or 2XL depending on the brand, stretch ability, where they sit on my body, etc. I ordered 2XL in this one, but with how they fit, I could have likely gotten an XL but they both fit just fine due to the elastic waist so go ahead with what you normally wearNOT see-through: This was a big one for me. You can NOT see your undies through this. What's with that fashion for women? Why are the majority of our pants completely see-through? I know they make material that isn't translucent because the men's department is filled with it. I don't know about you, but I don't want the whole world seeing my underwear when I'm out in public. Thankfully, you can't see through these pants, and trust me, I tested them! Yes, I did the whole bending test and even the light test! No undies to be seen!Casual but professional: I got these pants in multiple designs and because of how they're made, they can be casual or professional. Now, some of the designs maybe you won't walk into an office with (really depends on your workplace) but ones like the plain black one definitely would work. They're great because you throw on a nice shirt and maybe a jacket, and it's professional. You toss on your kitty t-shirt and it's casual.Plenty of room: It's got the wide-legs so there's plenty of room. No need to reach down and pull at the seams to try to get it to stop digging into your thighs.No ride: Because of my mommy belly, many pants tend to ride down throughout the day as the waistband starts to roll. Even the pants which claim that they stay in place and don't roll...an hour later as I'm gardening, down they go! But these really don't roll! Working, gardening, driving, household chores, sleeping in them...no roll no matter what!Design: Many designs which is awesome because once you find a pair of pants you like, you really don't want just a bunch of the same ones (okay, I do but most people don't) so you can get a ton of different designs without having to restart the whole "will these pants be comfortable?" gameCons:No pockets: I am sad to say that these pants have no pockets. Alas, I suppose we can't have it all, can we? Really, that would make these pants perfect. Actually, the ones I got (not sure about all designs) have FAKE pockets on the back like what???? What's the point? Give us real pockets! So yeah....that's the downside. No pockets. Very sad.

The stitching is solid. The fabric is not see-through. No camel toe issues. The pockets in the back are false pockets. I ordered a large because I'm tall I'm 5'11 I'm a size 10. The large fits but I would have been better off getting a medium my advice is get large if your size 12-14 get medium if your size 8-10. These are truly wide-legged pants so keep that in mind. Wide legged pants don't look good on everybody typically speaking if you choose wide leg pants like this you're better off choosing a fitted top so you don't look like a circus tent. Or at least a top with a wide belt that cinch things in and show off your waist.Also keep in mind that the band around the torso will accentuate a large gut not hide it... I would not advise this style for someone who's trying to hide their belly.I like these pants I will probably buy some of the other ones as well they go with my body type. But since I'm a size 8-10. I will be purchasing the mediums in the future.

I'm a size 6 and bought the Smile Flower in a Medium based on the website's suggestion. They were way too big in the waist and hips. I liked the fun pattern and feel of the fabric so I returned them and ordered a Small - they fit fine. The pants are incredibly comfortable and easy to dress up/down. They're perfect for around the house or an evening out. I got a lot of compliments and decided to buy a second pair. Based on the sizing mentioned above, I bought the BlackBlue in a Small but they were way too small. I returned them and bought the Medium; they fit, go figure!?! These pants are so comfortable that I'll consider buying more, but going forward I'll buy each pattern in a Small and Medium and return the one that doesn't fit.

Very happy with the fit of XL. I am short 5'2" with the menopause belly. So I really like the higher waist very comfortable and flattering. The fabric is super light weight so very cool on hot days. The bell-bottoms are fun. If you are shorter than me, the length will be to long. My only concern is the quality of the stiching. They maynot last long unfortunately. So handwash, linedry would be better. Thinking of get another pair just for back up.

The pants are not really soft soft but they are soft on the outside only, the inside is very rough and not good for people with sensitive skin. The tags are inside that need removed is almost impossible because of the stitching is in the seam of the leg, and where the fake pockets are there is a big think itchy band across the back that makes them very uncomfortable to wear.They style is nice but I even washed them as I always wash new clothes before putting them on, did not make the pants any softer even with extra clothes softening rince. Size is a little large and I ordered the small as they did suggested to order one size down but they do not make extra small. Would have rated them higher if the inside was close to the softness as the outside is.
