I finally ordered a pair of the Rachel Pally black gaucho pants that I've been wanting for ages - had to confess because I know they were a bit pricey but I think well worth it, right?
don't feel bad! i'm thinking of doing the same thing myself. i have a pair of the knock-off ones and i love them. i could literally live in them all summer long, so i'm thinking about getting a pair of the real deal. supposedly the fabric is what makes them pricey. it's some special technological wonder that's not supposed to pill, etc. and i saw something by her in a store and felt the fabric, and it did feel really soft and nice.
will you girls let me know how the knockoffs compare to the originals! i am getting some from uo soon (i can't wait to move to nj... yay no tax on shoes or clothes!). i felt the uo ones in the store and they seemed okay.
