I saw the ON you posted and ordered right away. So thank you! They only had a size up, so I got them hoping they wouldn't be too big, but from your review, looks like that was lucky! Funny, I also bought the lace Hue ones on the weekend and looked at the cropped flared ones -think I will pick those up too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1800185 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 11:24:46 +0000 AndiB 1800185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.zappos.com/p/karen-kane-diamond-print-shift-dress-black-white/product/8872960/color/151?utm_medium=emailtrx&amp;utm_campaign=170419_shippingConfirmation&amp;utm_term=all_A&amp;utm_content=row8-1col1orderItems-orderItem1_product-8872960">http://www.zappos.com/p/karen-.....olor/151?u</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.zappos.com/p/michael-michael-kors-nezla-long-sleeve-boat-neck-border-dress-black/product/8890736/color/3?utm_medium=emailtrx&amp;utm_campaign=170419_shippingConfirmation&amp;utm_term=all_A&amp;utm_content=row8-1col1orderItems-orderItem2_product-8890736">http://www.zappos.com/p/michae.....k/product/</a></p> <p>here are the dresses I ordered yesterday, with the express purpose of wearing with leggings. &nbsp;I have quite a few dresses I collected last year, from boho to quite structured, purchased for the same purpose.</p> <p>and I still can't figure out how to make a find... &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1800182 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 11:19:50 +0000 AndiB 1800182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I swear we have group think on this forum! &nbsp;I ordered two new tunic/dresses just yesterday from zappos, and I love the look. &nbsp;I have several pairs of nice leggings/pants (formfitting but very sturdy fabric) plus several thinner pairs that are more like footless tights but a bit more opaque. &nbsp;Love both but different looks. &nbsp;My outfit for the day is leggings and little black with leaf print dress and I can't wait for the zappos package. &nbsp;Let's see if I can figure out finds. &nbsp;I've collected several cropped pants and now i have to have those cropped flared leggings. &nbsp;Buying now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1800180 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 11:04:57 +0000 Inge 1800180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hah! Did you ever think you would utter the words <i>"now I need to get more SHORTER dresses"</i> :-))</p> <p>So glad you found such amazing leggings, Sveta. I want them too!-) And flared leggings: brilliant! I think I NEED a pair as well...</p> <p>I still love the look of dress/longer tunic over leggings very much (and as you know wore them with my gingham dress recently;-) and can't wait to see all your outfit combinations.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1800068 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 02:15:45 +0000 Sveta 1800068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got these ON laced leggings today and I LOVE them! They are not very thick but it is a good thing for summer. I think I am going to duplicate them so they last longer in good shape.<br /><b>Angie</b>, I liked them better that Hue leggings you posted above - somehow the diamond pattern of laces looks more flattering to my eye than straight lines of the Hue leggings.<br />I had to size up in them compared to Hue sizing.<br /><b>BC and jlpp</b>, I tried these leggings with over the knee dress (see finds) and liked the look a lot - I guess never say never! I think it does depend on the particular leggings and dress...<br /><b>Jenni</b>, just think of legging like accessory and not "something I need to wear under this dress because it is too short" but yes, shorter dresses are easier to wear with them proportions wise.<br />I also bought these more cropped lace trim leggings from Hue. They are a bit thicker( but still summer-friendly cotton) so better for not too hot summer days.<br />I also ordered these cropped flare leggings. I like the idea pf flares with dresses but jeans are too hot for summer and also waistband and zipper show under a think dress fabric. These are pull on like leggings so nothing to distort the lines.<br />Hmmm, looks like I am on a dress / leggings kick this summer...now I need to get more SHORTER dresses! :-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798405 Sat, 15 Apr 2017 11:02:24 +0000 Anonymous 1798405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Sveta and Angie. That's what I thought. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798392 Sat, 15 Apr 2017 07:57:37 +0000 Andrea H 1798392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought an extremely cute sweatshirt dress in the fall that I planned to wear with ankle length leggings and sneakers. But every time I put it on this winter, I took it right off again, and this explains why. It's just above/to the knee on me and the proportions looked wrong with the leggings in my eye. &nbsp;Hoping there will be some weather conditions this spring when I can wear it comfortably barelegged with sneakers, because I love the dress itself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798334 Sat, 15 Apr 2017 01:49:04 +0000 Anonymous 1798334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually wear mine with some knee length dresses and like it so I'd say whatever floats your boat when you try things on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798278 Fri, 14 Apr 2017 23:08:05 +0000 Angie 1798278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo what Sveta said 100%.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798272 Fri, 14 Apr 2017 23:04:15 +0000 Jenni NZ 1798272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love leggings to have interesting details like that- both Angie's Find and the Old Navy ones you are looking at. Yes, I definitely prefer the dresses or tunics above the knee with them. If your dress is below the knee it is modest anyway, so why would you need leggings? Warmth?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798199 Fri, 14 Apr 2017 20:55:00 +0000 Sveta 1798199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Angie, it is great to hear that I have this option :-)<br />I am considering these from Old Navy.<br />BC, I am thinking about leggings with dresses from mid-thigh to several inches above the knee: knee length dresses and longer do seem frumpy to me.</p> <p>It would be interesting what Angie thinks... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798181 Fri, 14 Apr 2017 20:10:16 +0000 Anonymous 1798181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How short should the dress be in relation to the leggings? I'm assuming there's a preferred formula to keep from looking frumpy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798170 Fri, 14 Apr 2017 19:01:23 +0000 Angie 1798170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES. Of course. Go for it.&nbsp;</p> <p>My clients are liking these leggings under dresses this year.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-leggings-with-dresses#post-1798162 Fri, 14 Apr 2017 18:28:27 +0000 Sveta 1798162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie,<br />Is it still fashionable to wear sorter dresses with leggings and if so what should be the leggings length or is it completely outdated look now?<br />I know you said to wear dresses with cropped pants and jeans and I love the look but it may be too hot for summer when you want something breezier.&nbsp; <br />I have a pair of cropped leggings (7 in above the ankle) which are basic knit black leggings and I wonder if I can wear them with shorter dresses (like in the finds below) this summer...<br />Thanks in advance! </p>
