I'll have to keep this in mind for future outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-726411 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:12:29 +0000 anne 726411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anna - this reminded me of 90's Japan too!! (a big look while I lived there) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-726354 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 13:14:13 +0000 morethanbeige 726354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks fantastic on you, so cool and your legs look long. Too funny about Ben laughing. For me, it's when Robert does the Hmmmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-726351 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 13:12:16 +0000 Jaime 726351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just another fan of this look.

It is great to have a group of ladies whom I trust when trying a look for the first time.</p> <p>I shall pass on your comments to Ben &lt;3</p> <p>Anna, your knowledge is incredible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-726169 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 04:22:30 +0000 Deborah 726169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice work:) I agree totally with Angie's reasoning for why this does work. Modern and fresh looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-726157 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 04:11:54 +0000 Ariadne 726157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such a great outfit--adventurous and interesting in all the right ways. Nice job taking a risk! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-726024 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 02:01:29 +0000 Jonesy 726024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look chic and fab! Tell Ben that you love him, but he's dead wrong about this one :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-725691 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 20:46:17 +0000 Transcona Shannon 725691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - this really works on you! Well done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-725683 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 20:38:48 +0000 Inge 725683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore this look on you, Jules, elegant, modern and spunky all in one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-725662 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 19:50:41 +0000 annagybe 725662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember this look in the 90's. I think it originated in Japan. Yours looks very modern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-725595 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 19:14:26 +0000 Suz 725595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look gorgeous! And nothing could make those legs of yours look short. Love this look on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-725577 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 19:00:11 +0000 RoseandJoan 725577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whew, I will tread with caution with this look, it is a bit trixsy.</p> <p>The kingdom of the bob is sounding very appealing after ten months in hair purgatory.</p> <p>Thank you for taking the time to answer Angie, you're a gem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-725557 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 18:47:12 +0000 Angie 725557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember :). And I am laughing about your precious Ben.</p> <p>This totally works, Jules! The jeans are just the right length and taper (read long enough and tapered enough) when worn WITH THE CAGED SANDALS. Had you worn these with ballet flats, they would be leg shortening. Or even heeled booties. But the sandals with the high vamp that show skin make all the difference here. </p> <p>For what it's worth, I hope that makes sense. You look fabulous, and about to join the Kingdom of the Bob. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leg-shortening-the-verdict#post-725535 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 18:34:10 +0000 RoseandJoan 725535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello Angie</p> <p>I hope you are okay and still basking in the last glow of an Indian Summer.</p> <p>I don't know if you remember but a couple of weeks ago I posted a photo from British Elle which featured boyfriend jeans with a really large turn-up. <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/really-feeling-this-diy-denim-look-are-you" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ok-are-you</a> At the time you voiced your concerns about the look being leg shortening and as I value your opinion I would like to ask for your verdict on my copycat look from the weekend.</p> <p>(BTW my other fashion barometer Ben laughed which is never a great sign)</p> <p>and apologies for the poor photo, this was a one shot wonder. </p>
