Much less bulky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658863 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 19:44:29 +0000 Traci 658863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the shorts, but I feel like the cuff is just a smidge too bulky. How many times are they rolled? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658733 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 15:29:37 +0000 Angie 658733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a score! Rockport makes well made and comfy shoes. Welcome to the Kingdom of Flats </p> <p>I like #2. So fab!</p> <p>Hi, Gain </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658731 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 15:19:30 +0000 Mo 658731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am with Jonesy that normally BF fit is a tad looser, but again we gotta do what works for us! They will be great casual shorts for the summer. I can't believe the deals you get - no wonder you thrift a lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658727 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 15:10:39 +0000 Anonymous 658727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And I'm too transfixed by Gain to comment on the outfit! What a pretty kitty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658721 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 15:01:22 +0000 Transcona Shannon 658721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - I thrifted these loafers last week from Value Village for $3.99! They are brand new Rockports and are the softest, most beautiful leather. These loafers are going to convert me to flats - I cannot get over how comfortable they are. I wore them all day yesterday running around and my feet were happy, happy, happy!</p> <p>I also thrifted a cropped darker wash denim jacket (exact same length as my light wash one) and white jeans hemmed exactly the right length for wearing with flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658720 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 14:56:59 +0000 Angie 658720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMGoodness.</p> <p>I can't look at the shorts ensemble just yet - too fixated on the shoes. WHERE did you get those cream loafers??? I WANT THEM. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658717 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 14:54:52 +0000 Transcona Shannon 658717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback - will continue to play with this look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658640 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 07:57:41 +0000 ManidipaM 658640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the semi-tuck. I think the lower rise does well with a bit of tucking here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658572 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 04:57:25 +0000 Jonesy 658572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the shorts are cute on you and that looks like a fab summer top! I tend to think of BF styles as being baggier through the thighs, but OTOH you need to go with a silhouette that works for you, and these definitely look cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658571 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 04:55:57 +0000 Deborah 658571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I like this. The fit of the shorts looks good and the top is really pretty. I like both tucked and semi tucked and the loafers are perfect. The pattern mix with the belt is good and I think "lifts" the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658541 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 03:58:11 +0000 Kiwichik 658541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon love the half tuck and the loafers - the shorts are great too and I think you might be right about this fit being perfect for the BF jean look everyone seems to be rocking at the moment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-shorts-attempt#post-658503 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 03:14:38 +0000 Transcona Shannon 658503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DS wanted to go to Value Village today (he gets his work out clothes there) so off we went. While there I found this Forever 21 hi-lo tee in super soft cotton blend and these denim shorts - both good items for my summer super casual capsule. I tried them on with my snakeskin belt and the newly thrifted Rockport cream loafers and really liked the combination. These shorts are definitely lower rise for me (a good 4 inches below my belly button) and a little slouchy in the crotch. This got me thinking - is this the type of fit I should be looking for in BF jeans?</p> <p>What do you think of this combination? And of the individual items? </p>
