Fall and winter I wear them ankle length. I also have some tops that just look better with the mid-calf look. I have many pairs in many colors, including patterns; they have become a staple for me. gradfashionista on "Ask Angie: Where Should capris end?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-where-should-capris-end#post-1537995 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 18:28:09 +0000 gradfashionista 1537995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Have you tried these?

Maybe I need to look for cropped instead of capri. One of the issues I am having is I do not want any shine and most of what I have seen look matte until they are stretched, then they have a sheen.

Otherwise I like full length (to the ankle at least) if wearing with booties because I like them to look like tights.  I feel like dress + cropped leggings + booties = too many horizontal lines.  Angie on "Ask Angie: Where Should capris end?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-where-should-capris-end#post-1537836 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 14:31:30 +0000 Angie 1537836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The best leggings are by Lysee.  Suz on "Ask Angie: Where Should capris end?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-where-should-capris-end#post-1537834 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 14:29:34 +0000 Suz 1537834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ One pair won't be enough. One Capri length and one full length. Said by the woman who hasn't figured legging out.

I wore this outfit over the weekend and loved it.  carter on "Ask Angie: Where Should capris end?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-where-should-capris-end#post-1537715 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 12:29:02 +0000 carter 1537715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great question, deb. You're asking them to work with multiple shoe options, but it sounds like you don't want a full length/ankle length pant. I feel like the bootie scenario is the most limiting. There seems to be much more length leeway with flats, and certainly with knee-length boots. Given that, I'd likely hem for the length you prefer for the booties. You can always tuck under a bit if you want them shorter for flats. Looking forward to Angie's thoughts. deb on "Ask Angie: Where Should capris end?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-where-should-capris-end#post-1537518 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 02:24:32 +0000 deb 1537518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ A few days ago <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recommendation-for-capri-leggings" rel="nofollow">Shannon started a conversation</a> about capri leggings worn with dresses. There were several recommendations so I went out today to see what I could find. The Lysee capris hit me just below the knee and that seemed too short. Two SA's searched for other leggings that were longer and not too thin with no luck. Also, the SA's had various ideas on the length of a capri legging or pant. I finally tried on the NYDJ ponte legging and like the heft and feel but they are only in the long length. I purchased a pair in a size 6 (I wear a 10 or 12 pant) to bring home to try with my dresses, skirts and tunics. My dilemma now is what length to have the altered to. I want to wear them with booties or flats and tall boots, of coarse.  I did walk the mall popping in to all the stores but every pair I was shown had visible stitching and looked to work-out. So the real question is, where should a capri end on the leg?
