Tory Burch Germaine Pant: Love It or Hate It?

October 3, 2007

For me, plaid pants have always been associated with a major nerd factor. So when Tory Burch came out with this plaid Germaine Pant, $350, I immediately thought what great pants they would be for a nerdy Halloween costume.

They're meant to be riding pants, but I think I prefer the classic riding pants, in camel color. What about you, are you mad for this plaid pant?

I think instead I'll just borrow my grandpa's old golf pants...

I hated them as a child and I still hate them today. The ugliest pants a woman could wear I think.

Plaid pants are horrible...end of story. Not flattering ever.

Plaid can be extremely cute. IMO, this isn't one of those occasions.

I love them. I see classic preppy with a white button down and black sweater vest plus some pointy ballet flats. I am so looking for plaid pants now.

I have plaid pants (in a cranberry colour) and they look okay with something really muted on top, like a plain black shirt. It looks dorky if I try to match the top to one of the colors in the plaid pattern, though. The cut of these pants look nice. There's some curvyness to it instead of just straight up and down tubes like how a lot of people who forget women have curves cut women's pants. Not too fond of the orange, beige and black pattern combo, but I think it could look great on a thin person with a plain black shirt. I would definitely not spend that much on a pair of pants that can only be paired with one kind of top, though. The plaid pants I have I got on sale for $19.99.

As much as I loved my grandfather, why would I want to dress like he did in the 70's? So this item is a major Hate!

Lol. I did too, in grade seven, and after I wore them everyone in my school did. But I secretly had nothing else to wear that day. So, I love them for that reason, but they're ugly.
