Deepika said... Beautiful pants Lorna. Question for you, it seems from your photos that these arent really low rise pants. Where exactly do they sit? 3/16/06 11:29 PM
Lorna C. Newman said... Deepika, these pants sit right at my navel, but I used the wider waistband. If you use the narrower band it will be about an inch lower, I think. Not too low, but low enough. On me, I have to narrow the band a bit more in the front, maybe about 3/8" or so to stop them from rolling a bit when I move around. 3/17/06 9:17 AM
