I bought them as an alternative to a dress to wear to a benefit dinner later this month. The benefit is honoring my FIL, so I may or may not be noticed. I don't think the dress is extremely fancy BUT it cost the people attending $5000/table!!!!!
I'd like to find something a little dressier for the to but am not sure what. I'm short, so I'll need to keep the top and bottom from overpowering me. I also have small boobs, so there ain't a shirt made that will give me a good cleavage look.
I didn't want to say this, but I have those pants & really I can't imagine dressing them up to a point that I would feel comfortable in them at a $5,000 a table dinner. Sorry. They are really cute, but I'd wear something different. Maybe it's just me though.

I have them too, and the material is really a light t-shirt type cotton. I'm not sure they'd look right that dressed up either IMO. Sorry.
Well, crap! Now I've got to rethink it all over again!!!! I want to cover up because it's getting chilly here plus I'm always cold. I sometimes feel silly in a dress because I have short hair and don't look that feminine IMO. And I don't want to spend a fortune for a dress that I probably won't wear again. I don't know that the dinner is going to be fancy. It's for an adopt-a-student foundation at an inner-city high school.
So, you don't think they could be dressed up with some great heels and a fancy-ish top? I don't have the pants in-hand yet, so I'm just going by their look in the picture.......
I think you might want to go with something more like this. (The pants are Laundry at Nordies) I think that the pants you posted would definately over power your shortness (I am short too! I feel your pain!)
