To my eye, it only looks right with long legs. That said, I have legs for days and I still don't care for the look on myself. Wear what makes you happy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-issue--new-problem-or#post-1235402 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 05:30:35 +0000 Kiwichik 1235402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perhaps you just need to adjust your eye to the ankle strap or go with ankle straps that tone in with you skin colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-issue--new-problem-or#post-1234836 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 15:30:28 +0000 Kristin L 1234836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry AT. I remember hearing people at band camp&nbsp;when I was in high school commenting that my legs were "too d*$@ long for my own good". I don't think being leggy is a bad thing. And as another bowlegged, fat legged&nbsp;person, I think it's really only noticeable to us. Would something like tights with a fun pattern or texture work for you wearing a high ankle wear?</p> <p>Or, if your self conscious about your legs, maybe you could consider a shoe with a "stump-ifing" ankle straps? &nbsp;They can make your legs looks shorted.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-issue--new-problem-or#post-1234829 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 15:23:34 +0000 always trying 1234829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>New big issue with me is something I just discovered--this has to do with proportion of an outfit, but also with ones legs.&nbsp; This is the amount of space between tops of booties, shoes with ankle straps, gladiators, etc. &nbsp;and the length of pants or skirts.&nbsp; With all the high ankle footwear it is not easy to figure out what goes with what.&nbsp; Since I am not blessed with the best legs, and am a bit leggy for my height, when I try the shoes or sandals with any bottoms be it rolled, or not, except for ankle pants, I am mostly not happy with the look.&nbsp; My legs look either fat, bowed or something.&nbsp;&nbsp; Then I put on the loafers, sandals without ankle straps, flats or pumps I am happy with the look.&nbsp; </p> <p>Looks like all this higher ankle footwear is for ladies with nicely shaped&nbsp; legs. seems to me it just calls attention to the bare leg, when I think one wants it to call attention to the shoes...</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p>
