It doesn't look too bad, but it is really about whether the pants stay up properly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013913 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 20:46:34 +0000 Bennett 2013913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the idea of a head-to-toe color matched outfit! Who makes those heels?&nbsp;</p> <p>This is minimalism that will turn heads. Add some statement earrings and a big wide bangle bracelet... then let all that color do the talking. I can tell that you hate how you look in the top, so let it go. I actually love it, a high crew neck and near-the-elbow short sleeves - yes, please!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013828 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 17:11:03 +0000 anchie 2013828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fashintern - thanks Actually the extra fabric in back gaps the most when I sit down, it stands like that without me pulling it. I usually solve this issue with the belt, I don't bother with alternations if I can get away with it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013819 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 16:43:06 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2013819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I didn't notice that "extra" fabric in back in the first photos. Sure, you could pull it back when you tried, but it doesn't look like it gaps. You need a little bit of room back there to be able to sit down. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>The top is loose. Wearing it untucked with your yellow rainbow skirt would look like a rumpled pile of fabric (ok, I exaggerate, but do you know what I mean?) But with fitted pants like these, I think the extra fabric is fine, as it softens the whole look. Otherwise it's all structure/body shape.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>And I agree with others who say that you look awesome!<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013791 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 15:25:06 +0000 Angie 2013791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Elizabeth P,</b> I had the waist and hips altered to custom-fit. No hemming! You asked about a calf measurement, which I couldn't give you because they were doing THAT alteration. Almost right :)</p> <p><b>Anchie</b>, I don't have long legs. Just regular. A smaller size is usually shorter so that's probably why they work. Yours don't need hemming though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013771 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 14:53:14 +0000 Elizabeth P 2013771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL!&nbsp; I knew they went to the tailor, just assumed.&nbsp; I know you got SOMETHING hemmed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013768 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 14:48:11 +0000 anchie 2013768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie must have longer legs than me, LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013766 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 14:46:14 +0000 Angie 2013766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie</b> didn't hem her red jeans at all </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013765 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 14:44:58 +0000 Elizabeth P 2013765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Anchie, can you fold the pants up to a couple of different lengths and let us see them?&nbsp; I like the length they are now, but I also really like how Angie has hers (I think she took off 3-4").&nbsp; It might be a question of playing with what works on your body, and with different footwear.</div><div>You might also like to roll them if you want them shorter. <br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013762 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 14:44:40 +0000 anchie 2013762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - top is also Boden, my matchy matchy nature could not resist top in the same color. And shoes are perfect match too I did not even realized that until I started looking for shoes to try jeans with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013744 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 14:20:31 +0000 Angie 2013744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm back. LOVE the top. Which is it.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Anchie,</b> I did not need to alter the length. It's perfect. Yours looks good too. LOVE THEM WITH THE RED SHOES.&nbsp;</p> <p>I did have the waist and hips altered to custom-fit. I think that sorted the length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013703 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 12:41:25 +0000 anchie 2013703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I am keeping the jeans and will wear them as is at first. Can always alter them later if needed.<br /> I am not so sure about top - I somehow feel frumpy in it. I think it is combination of high neck and not very fitted body. When neck is so high I prefer more fitted style, and when is not very fitted then I need little lower neckline, otherwise I feel very blocky. But I did not have time last night to try wearing it under blazers or with scarf, so may give it some more chance before I decide. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013697 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 12:28:34 +0000 RobinF 2013697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these jeans on you. I kind of like the current length but a few inches higher wouldn't hurt them either. I'm not sure about the top, the sleeves looks a little long to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013685 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 11:24:19 +0000 Gail 2013685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look fab on you . I like the top with them not boxy at all to my eye. Will you be wearing with a heel or with a flat ? Perhaps if you want wear with both you may need an adjustment. Although I'm a bit lazy in that department and tend to tuck mine under if wearing a flat and I want more of an ankle length that day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013683 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 11:15:56 +0000 Style Fan 2013683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous.&nbsp; I might have to check these out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013638 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 01:59:47 +0000 Anonymous 2013638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those look wonderful on you. Keep and alter the waist. The tee looks worth keeping too. You could have the neckline altered if you wanted to </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans/page/2#post-2013635 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 01:50:01 +0000 Jaime 2013635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jeans look great and I love them with the red shoes and sweater. I would fix the back, because as Taylor says, I think they will stretch and the problem will become worse. Otherwise they look perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013626 Wed, 20 Mar 2019 01:17:35 +0000 Preppy Pear 2013626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those look so great on you! And you have a fab backside! Between you and Angie, I’m really tempted to order a pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013591 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 21:33:54 +0000 Adriana 2013591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for showing. That is so helpful. I feel the neckline of the shirt is a bit high, but maybe with your hair it looks good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013588 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 21:24:34 +0000 viva 2013588@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the sweater, Anchie. I tried it in the colorblock but it looked kind of frumpy on me. This solid is great on you. I like the length of the jeans too, from the side. The amount of ankle they are showing is nice and adds structure without being really short. I'm also a little afraid that if you hemmed they might start to look skinny because they would hit closer to your calve.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013571 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 21:03:22 +0000 taylor 2013571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>anchie, have the waist tailored. These will likely stretch a bit. You want them to be perfect and hug you, not bag out at the waist after a few wears .... because they are so fab in every other way .<br /> Also do not put them in the dryer after alterations (you prob knew that already )</p> <p>I like the length as is and I don’t think the sweater looks boxy . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013565 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 20:55:26 +0000 Karie 2013565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look like a perfect fit on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013550 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 19:52:04 +0000 Kathie 2013550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>1) I like the length, but will defer to people who are more expert in that area.</div><div>2) Yes, have the waist tailored. (Reminding myself that I need to make this same alteration a priority.)</div><div>3) I find crew necks to be tricky. It looks a bit boxy on it's own, but, it might be exactly what you need under a jacket, and paired with a scarf. How are you planning to wear it?<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013537 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 18:59:42 +0000 Sal 2013537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look gorgeous on you Anchie - I quite like the length to be honest - just a good classic length.</p> <p>Really good fit in the butt and legs - the perfect fit actually.&nbsp; I haven't had that waist alteration done before but I think others recommend it and&nbsp; jeans to tend to stretch out a bit so I say yes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013536 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 18:53:06 +0000 Jane 2013536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the top, it doesn’t look boxy to me but sits at the waist nicely. </p> <p>I think the length looks good but I’m a longer length trouser type of gal! </p> <p>I think the back is good and doesn’t need adjusting </p> <p>They look super! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013522 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 17:55:31 +0000 Anonymous 2013522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great, but yes to taking in the back. Length looks good to me, but that's Angie's expertise I like the color of the top, but would like it more with a different neckline or longer sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013519 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 17:50:27 +0000 anchie 2013519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, so finally could see them other then in the photo. And I have a few questions for you, dear ladies. </p> <p>1) Are they too long on me for ankle jeans, should I shorten them?<br /> 2) Is it worth fixing small gap at the back? It is not like they are falling down because of it.<br /> 3) Do you like the top? Is it somewhat boxy and shapeless? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-cambridge-jeans#post-2013470 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 16:02:06 +0000 Bonnie 2013470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans are perfect - I think I may have to order them, too. </p>
