I'd recommend washing them once or twice before shortening, though. My jeans always end up just a tad shorter than I want them to be when they start out perfect . . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-straight-leg-fit-repinned-to-1#post-316936 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 00:16:54 +0000 Aida 316936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thimblelina - Thank you very much, I'm incredibly flattered by both the comment and the wonderfully eloquent way it was phrased!</p> <p>Angie - I will try 1.5" and 2" tomorrow! Thanks for being such a stickler </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-straight-leg-fit-repinned-to-1#post-316888 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 22:40:27 +0000 Angie 316888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, just a little shorter still. You are almost there!!!</p> <p>(You did ask someone who is obsessed with the correct length of jeans and trousers - sorry to be a mare). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-straight-leg-fit-repinned-to-1#post-316881 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 22:32:33 +0000 thimblelina 316881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida... OT: I feel I must remark on what a beautiful, timeless profile you have. Like something off a gorgeous coin from antiquity. Completely classical and just lovely.

I have pinned only one leg for comparison. Things to note: 1) since they're still new the hem is still a bit stiff; 2) since these were taken on carpet the heels have an additional 1/4" or so hidden by the carpet.</p> <ol> <li>4" heel, front.</li> <li>4" heel, side.</li> <li>3.5" heel, front.</li> <li>3.5" heel, side.</li> </ol> <p>Too long/short/fine? Will I have to pick one heel height to wear with these, or is a 3/4" range acceptable? Thank you!! :D<br /> (<a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-straight-leg-fit">Original thread</a>) </p>
