Tweed Cropped Pants

ILoveChoo · Hermes

I tried some on from there- they were horrible quality and the sizing was weird. the fit way too tighly on my thighs and left a HUGE gap at the waist.

they did have some really cute one at Target though- you might want to check them out.

I tried them on last weekend. I wear a size 6 in pants and 28 in jeans. The Forever 21 cropped pants come in size small, medium, and large. I tried on both the small and medium. The small was too tight on me and the medium was a little too baggy on me. I think this may be because I have no booty. Anyways, I ended up not getting them because I didn't like the selection the store in my area had. I probably will get a pair when I see ones I like.

i wouldn't buy pants from there unless i could try them on. sizing is very inconsistent and i'll often try on like 5 pairs to find 1 that fits correctly...but that's kind of to be expected with $15 pants.

You do have to try on a lot of pairs, and then you have to try on different ones in the style you like because, as was said, the sizing is very inconsistent.

I actually bought some yesterday that I loved the fit of, but it was the second pair (same size) that I tried on that fit well.

The F21 crops didn't fit me either. Old Navy actually has some really cute ones that fit like a dream though - and they're lined:

Thanks for the advise - I'll try the Old Navy ones!

The mall in my area is highly teen oriented and I am noticing almost all of the cropped pants are really tight in the thighs like those early-year-2000-low-rise-spandex jeans. Anyone else noticing this?

I bought 3 pairs of them from F21. I started w/ a medium because of my thunder thighs but had to return them for a small because they were way too big in the waist. In normal sizes, I wear a 4 or 6 or a 28 or 29 (on good days, a 27). I find them to be slightly snug on the rear, but not enough to seem obscene. Plus they seemed to fit a little looser as I wore them longer.

Some of them did look cheesy, but I think you just have to use your own judgement of cheese when buying from any store such as F21.
