I need clothes for Hawaii

I just wear dresses and skirts in Hawaii. Why do you need pants? :-)

Capris are still available but they call them crops now. They are a tad longer than some of the capris in the past although you are above average height so they may run a bit shorter on you. I shop mostly at Talbots and Lands End.

I saw a video last night that capris are starting to trend again.

I was at Macys yesterday and they have lots of capris. I was actually thinking of buying a pair of Levi capris because it fit me like a crop. 😁

I just cut off some of the length on some old lightweight pants, then roll to desired “crops” (not capris). Perfect for Hawaii and don’t have to spend a lot or add to my (hefty) wardrobe 😜

Where what you like. I dont wear shorts, so I live in Capris. "Crops" arent as short as capris, and therefore not as cool in summer. When I vacation soneplace warm, I do casual dresses- my swim coverups from Lands End can also be worn as dresses. (Body Glide prevents chafing).

Crops are essentially ankle length or just above the ankle, so pretty useless for hot weather. Capris are just below the knee.

I wouldn’t wear pants in hawaiii - if I did, they’d be linen and loose. I also like the gauzy cotton that is in right now.

For brands, I like Michael Stars and Velvet by Graham and Spencer. They have really nice fabrics, including linen.

This, exactly!  I used to watch the trends and while I bought more expensive staple pieces for work, I also bought a couple of cheaper trendy pieces to wear after work or on weekends.

Then, when cropped pants came into fashion, I learned how comfortable and versatile they could be.  I couldn’t wear them in the office, or maybe I could have, I just never did, but living in Southern California, I wore them all year long.  I also had a couple of toe rings and an anklet that I wore continually and they could be seen with cropped pants and sandals.

By the time I learned that cropped pants were no longer in style, I was at an age where I just didn’t care about current fashion any longer.  I had stopped working years before I had planned to after being injured, so I slowly got rid of the majority of my better clothing items.  But since I was now home every day, I lived in my capri pants because they were comfortable and I liked them.  I wasn’t about to stop just because they were no longer the “in” thing to wear.  I will undoubtedly wear them for the rest of my life, unless they become threadbare.

I’m confused - when did the OP say anything about only buying the latest trends or even caring about what is “in”?

In her original post she mentioned that she doesn't see capris in her stores so they must be out of style, so she is looking for something else to wear.

She must have edited her post I think.
