booby and other ponte pant lovers

[bananapancakes]

I was at the mall today and noticed a sign out front of Eddie Bauer advertising ponte pants for $29.99. I've never bought anything there before but I went in, tried them on, and fell in love. They are nice and thick to hide lumps and bumps and they are skinny but not a legging. They are quite high rise which is great for holding in the tummy. They are regularly $80 but are on sale right now for $29.99. I bought black and navy. I imagine I will wear them a bunch this fall!

I think they are these ones.

Hmm those look nice! I might try them, thanks!

Bonus question: how do you pronounce ponte?

pont (rhymes with font)? or ponty (rhymes with jaunty)?

Those look great. I might have to swing by the mall tomorrow and try them on.

I don't think I've ever said it out loud, but I read it as ponty. I have no idea if it's correct!

I didn't even think about this pronunciation.

That's how the sales lady said it so you could very well be correct. I say "pont" in my head but who knows what is right.

Do they have back pockets? What type?

Lol, Eddie Bauer. Are you in the Hammer?

Nope, at the inlaws. This was in the "beautiful city" close to your parents' house.

I wonder where I could go to try on a pair (other than the Hammer - but if I must I will).

Square one, apparently! Also the outlets but ugh traffic.

There's one between Oakville and Burlington apparently...I can swing that...no way I am doing Square One traffic with my kids, they have decided they hate the car.

I don't know if the outlets have the same deals though. Maybe call ahead?

Ooh, but if you call to ask you'll have to decide how to pronounce them. Will it be pont, ponty, or pontay?
