But I think you should keep them, they look great </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18514 Sat, 02 Aug 2008 15:50:11 +0000 Angie 18514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rotten luck </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18513 Sat, 02 Aug 2008 15:48:58 +0000 Dani 18513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>THANK YOU! I'm so happy *chair dancing*! I really wanted these to work because I like the way they fit and I really like the look of the straight legs. Now to find another pair that fits as well (NAS is out of these in my size ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18510 Sat, 02 Aug 2008 15:46:20 +0000 Angie 18510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(Thank you) </p> <p>They scrunch so the length you have is great. The hems wouldn’t touch the floor with heels if they were longer. At least that’s what I can gather from the picture? They look like 14 inch widths to me. I think the others had the same impression. They look fab! Does that make sense to you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18495 Sat, 02 Aug 2008 15:34:47 +0000 Dani 18495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just bumping to see if Angie has a final ruling on the PPL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18350 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 20:53:30 +0000 Becky 18350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would tend toward PPL, but I really don't know. I'm interested to find out what the consensus will be, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18335 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 20:33:24 +0000 Dani 18335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Patience, Tanya &#38; Ana. </p> <p>So, two votes for wearing them with any heel height and one vote for PPL. Any other opinions? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18233 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 15:03:30 +0000 Ana 18233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, even though the opening is 16" they still look like they have smaller leg openings. Are you sure the opening is 16"? </p> <p>Anyway, I think they look great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18221 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 14:28:45 +0000 Tanya 18221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, to me it looks that the leg opening is not wide enough for them to actually go to the floor, but I could be wrong... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18219 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 14:26:26 +0000 Patience 18219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dani, the fit of the jeans looks great. I'm really curious about Angie's answer because my experience is that 16" is awkward for heels. However, you are very tall and that may make a difference. Still, my guess is that PPL for these is to the floor. On the other hand if you only have one pair of heels and are already very tall, maybe you just enjoy these with flats which you wear most often? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18217 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 14:17:15 +0000 Dani 18217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are the pictures of the jeans to determine PPL:</p> <p>with the flats:<br /> <a href="http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn119/dixiegirlYLF/Purchases/Straight%20leg%20jeans/P7310317.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i302.photobucket.com/al.....310317.jpg</a></p> <p>with the only pair of heels I currently own (I plan to purchase some booties):<br /> <a href="http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn119/dixiegirlYLF/Purchases/Straight%20leg%20jeans/P7310316.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i302.photobucket.com/al.....310316.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn119/dixiegirlYLF/Purchases/Straight%20leg%20jeans/P7310315.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i302.photobucket.com/al.....310315.jpg</a></p> <p>OK, what's the verdict? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18200 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 13:50:53 +0000 Angie 18200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay Sihaya! Which brand did you get? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18183 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 12:53:08 +0000 Sihaya 18183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome Dani - quite by coincidence I too found skinnies with a higher rise that fit me yesterday. We'll have to virtually strut about town at the same time in our respective skinnies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18181 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 12:48:22 +0000 cas74 18181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those look fantastic! I've been looking for jeans that fit me like that for months. I think they'd look great with heels. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18173 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 11:23:48 +0000 katieck 18173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dani, those jeans look fantastic on you! I'm inspired. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18157 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 04:32:11 +0000 Angie 18157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look fabulous! Very straight. Try them with heels. Do they scrunch? Show us! </p> <p>Ps your T-shirt is excused because you were SO excited </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18156 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 04:29:03 +0000 marianne 18156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not very clear on PPL and straight legs, but I just wanted to say that these jeans look great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18125 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 02:47:46 +0000 Tanya 18125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, that's a tough question. Could you try them on with some heels you have and post a photo? That way we could say of the opening is wide enough to fall nicely over the shoe- that would require PPL. If it's not wide enough, than you're lucky- it can go with everything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18123 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 02:43:26 +0000 Dani 18123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Tanya. I really like them, I'm just concerned that I won't be able to have the versatility of a straight leg pair of jeans with this pair. Do you think it requires PPL or can I wear heels with this pair? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18121 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 02:35:53 +0000 Tanya 18121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how these jeans fit you, I think the fit is perfect! I think it is you that has to decide if the leg opening is what you want/need or not. But they certainly look pretty darn good on </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attempt-at-straight-leg-jeans#post-18117 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 02:23:38 +0000 Dani 18117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered the Tahari straight leg jeans from Nordstrom and got them today. </p> <p>They fit wonderfully, comfortable, stretchy and nice length. Here's the thing...I'm not sure they're really what I've been looking for as far as the leg opening. The jean leg is straight all the way down, I've measured. The only problem is the opening is 16". </p> <p>Here's the jeans at Nordstrom (Angie have you seen these in person?):<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2984053?cm_cat=datafeed&#038;cm_pla=bottoms:women:pant&#038;cm_ite=elie_tahari_&#039;adena&#039;_straight_leg_jeans:229238&#038;cm_ven=Froogle&#038;mr:trackingCode=7B69A596-515E-DD11-98CA-001422107090&#038;mr:referralID=NA" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....erralID=NA</a></p> <p>Here they are on me (excuse the T shirt, I'd changed to give kids a bath and was too excited to try these on):</p> <p>What do you guys think?<br /> <a href="http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn119/dixiegirlYLF/Purchases/Straight%20leg%20jeans/P7310314.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i302.photobucket.com/al.....310314.jpg</a> </p>
