Went out shopping today to start working on the spring wardrobe.

Aaackkkk!! Gauchos are back. I had seen a few people wearing them over the past month or two. Well, I went shopping and they have EXPLODED on the scene.

I hated them in the 70s and I hate them today. I have yet to see anyone that they look good on. Why are they doing this?
 
I'm probably in the minority but I LOVE them... pair them with a great pair of knee high boots and I don't think you could look bad!!!
 
I think they're really cute! I just purchased a pair from Old Navy - I can't wait til it's warm enough to wear them!

I liked them with boots too. I had a pair that I wore with boots and a vest and I liked it. :)
 
I love Gauchos. They are so comfortable. I have a few pairs I have worn for the winter and I am sure I will get a few pairs for spring/summer. :thumbsup2 I do believe you have to wear them with the right shoes though. I work with someone who wears her Gauchos with flats and her bare legs showing. Its still winter here-just doesn't work for me. :rolleyes:
 
....going to do a search to see what y'all are talking about....

ETA: Wooo...that's bad. I'm not into fashion and don't generally care what I'm wearing but, you couldn't get me into those.
 
Can someone post a picture (someone that knows how) :blush:

Would you rather wear peasant skirts and denim vests? :smooth:

Thanks for the picture....lots of flowing material. I can't picture a short person looking very good in them (that would be me). :rotfl:
 
I LOOOVE my gauchos!! I wear them with high heels and knee high boots....SEXY!! :thumbsup2
 
I lvoe them too man. I am going to get some and some boots. But it s probably getting too warm for that. I love stuff.
 
Ohhhhhh but do they come with vests that have feathers and beads on them? I never liked them, but I can't believe I am admitting this, I did have a goucho set. They were the faux suede, a lovely shade of brown and the vest had those wonderful feathers and wooden beads on the ties of the vest. I would pair them with my wooden wedge sandels and those fabulous feather earings that were so the style in the seventies. :rotfl:
 
Christine... come over to the other side... pretty pants... pretty boots... you know you want too... all the cool kids are wearing them :smokin:
 
Mine was a winter set in a plaid that I wore with a solid matching vest and a light mock neck sweater. I thought that I was so hot. ;)
