denim capris/gauchos
Permalink Closed


Anyone seen any cute ones.  They are always on my summer shopping list and every year I don't find them.  I found these ones at Nordies but I'm not sure about the $167 price tag and if they would make me look hippy/big thighs since I am 5'4. 


7 For All MankindŽ 'Parker' Stretch Gauchos

I saw the ones you posted IRL and they are sooooo cute.  I can't say whether they'd make your thighs look big, because I didn't try them on, but they are on my wish list.  I have these from AE - they hit right below the knee and are super comfy.  Maybe they'd be a good alternative for you

I tried these on and they fit really nice.


I didn't get them because I couldn't justify the price.


But I did really like them. They fit nice and were pretty slimming on me. I am normally an 8/10.(I am naturally "hippy".)

Not to hijack your thread, but can you get a gift card to Nordie's w/My Points?  I'm a member, but I didn't see Nordie's as an option.  Maybe I'm blind?

sadly no but you can get a webcertificate on there that is a mastercard # and you can use it on the nordies website Just a warning it really does take 4-6 weeks to get the darn thing though.

Aurora - thanks for the heads up on the Mastercard giftcard - that will come in handy!


Kitty - I actually had to size down in those AE gauchos.  Normally, I'm a size 4 there, but for some reason the size 2 fit me much better.  When I tried the 4 on, they just weren't flattering and were baggy in the butt - the 2 worked out much better.  HTH!  They are great pants.

thanks honey for the heads up.  I was just there today and didn't see them.  I'll recheck on Tuesday when I am checking out the nordies sale though.  I was kinda disappointed in our Co-op here.  Maybe I just don't know what to expect there but it was really spacious (not a lot of clothes) and I didn't notice jeans there.

I don't know Nicoley but when i go tuesday I can look again and see if they have your size and ship it to you.  I don't know if i'll find them though. 


Oh I also saw them at macy's today so if you do mypoints.com (pm if you have ?s on that) you can save up for the $50 gc which is helpful.

A few weeks ago Drew posted that Nordstrom did price matches. If the Nordstrom website and the other website, like intermix, has the exact style and size that you require then they will match it. I just got the seven ones for $99  from Nordstrom so hope this helps anyone else who has been stalking them since spring. If anyone is interested the number to the Nordstrom personal shoppers is 1-888-282-6060. They are the people that have you have to order through since it is a price adjustment.


Thanks again Drew for that helpful tidbit of info!!!
