What d'you reckon the print on these?

What do you think to the print on these ? I'm an inverted triangle-ey shape so have v slim legs and broad shoulders - I'm thinking these with a plain darker top may draawwww the eye away from my swimmers shoulders? Or are they simply minging?

I like them, sounds like you've got the right idea! The pattern is really subtle and nice.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 09/04/2013 18:18

Hmm I don't like them, sorry. There are some star print and polka dot printed jeans around that are a lot more subtle, if you want to go down the printed trousers route.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 09/04/2013 18:19

:) Crossed posts, Teacake. Our views on subtle clearly disagree!

ToastedTeacakes · 09/04/2013 18:23

Remus you have just reminded me of the isabel marant 'deacon' jeans!

Not subtle, but I love them..

peggotty · 09/04/2013 18:26

50/50 so far! I'm not normally a print kind of person and prefer plain but these just caught my eye - I thought they were subtle!

I think they're lovely and subtle, perfect for you r shape.

shrimponastick · 09/04/2013 18:32

I think they are lovely and would suit you with slim legs.

Envy though, as I have rugby player type legs - therefore would look a bugger.

Saw them in store today......LOVED them!

MechanicalTheatre · 09/04/2013 18:33

I like them.

mathanxiety · 09/04/2013 18:50

I think they look like pinstripes from a distance, and would therefore make your legs look longer and thinner while calling attention to anything above the waist that is wider unless it was disguised somehow.

peggotty · 09/04/2013 18:53

Hmm you may have a point math.

I like them and would definitely wear them even though I have a massive arse and legs Grin

mrgarybarlow · 09/04/2013 19:04

I sound like a very similar shape. I have just bought some black and cream ones from Peacocks. I wear with a black top and it works as you suggested. I think the attention is drawn to my bottom half away from MY swimmers shoulders!!

hugoagogo · 09/04/2013 19:11

Oh are printed jeans back?

I wonder if I still have my yellow and black paisley dungarees somewhere? Grin

Seriously though I actually like them, but I too have footballer legs.

DewDr0p · 09/04/2013 20:23

I like them - would be great on slim pins I think.
