Mom faves from Lands End?

[kristenk]

Does anyone have any favorite clothing items from LE?

I have a free shipping code to use and I'd like to try out a few new things for me. My new LE strategy is to try things out when I have free shipping and then return the things that don't work to Sears.

Here are my favorites so far:

Sport knit cropped pants (I know they've been mentioned here before)

Striped tee shirt (also available in solids), I really like the fit and these, along with the solids, are my new standard tees

What are your favorites?

I just bought a pair of the performance sport pants and the capris. I adore them!

I also have a couple pairs of french terry knit pants which I wear almost every day. They don't appear to be in stock right now.

I like those Sport Knit Cropped pants. They look like something I'd live in this summer. Has anybody tried them? How's the fit? How's the material--do they hold up well?

I now have 5 pairs of sport knit cropped pants, packed em for our trip to Disney and am wearing a pair as I type! The fit is kind of baggy, but I did not want tight. And they do shrink some after you wash them. I usually wear a 12 and I got the large, which I think may be a 14-16??? So I guess that's what I get!

The fabric is lighter than the sport knit pants I have (bought maybe 3-4 years ago so maybe the pants fabric has changed too?). But I think it is a great weight for cropped pants, which I want to be lighter.

These are great in between pants for me--not too cold for long pants, not warm enough for shorts. I wouldn't wear them for anything other than hanging out at home/with the kids. But that's why I bought them!

Thanks for the info about the pants! So would you consider them mostly around the house/lounging pants--or would you also wear them out with the kids for running errands, going to the park, playdates, etc.? I'd love it if they were comfy but also pulled together enough with a cute tank and nice flip flops (my summer uniform!)
And do you think the large is a little too roomy? Right now I'm mostly back into my size 10 pants--but I'm like you and don't want them tight. Would a medium sound right or go for the large?

I really love the sport knit cropped pants. I think they're fine for errands, park, playdates, etc. I wouldn't pull them on for an evening out with DH, but I would probably wear them if we were doing some shopping in the afternoon. I'm a pretty casual person, though, so my limits might not work well for others!

I think that if you're mostly in 10s, the medium would be the right size. If you look at the size chart for them, XL is a 18-20, L is a 14-16, M is a 10-12, S is a 6-8. If you're mostly 10 with some 12s thrown in, medium looks perfect for you.

I agree with the size recommendation - I'm a size 10 with a few 12's thrown in and the mediums are great. Very comfy pants!
