When I do this I wear knee-high hose to stop cold bits, and socks would work too.<br />The top is great too- I like it semi-tucked with the belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-sloan-slim-ankle-pants---about-ankle-pants-with-booties-faux-tuck#post-1050686 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 20:39:57 +0000 Anonymous 1050686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the new Sloans and think they look great even with the bootie.&nbsp; I don't like the pic #1 with them rolled up (agree that is too short).&nbsp; Love the faux tuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-sloan-slim-ankle-pants---about-ankle-pants-with-booties-faux-tuck#post-1050670 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 18:54:45 +0000 Makrame 1050670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been happily wearing Martin fit skinnies, which were Angie's recommendation from a few years ago. &nbsp;They have a&nbsp;fairly tight fit, especially in the thighs, so I usually try to wear them with longer tops to make sure they don't look inappropriately tight for work. &nbsp;I wanted to get some pants that have a slightly more relaxed fit and would be an everyday workhorse for me, like the Martins. &nbsp;Right now BR sells Martins in wool-containing fabrications only but the Sloans are available in the same stretch fabric as my old Martin skinnies - viscose/cotton/spandex. &nbsp;I ordered Sloan trousers (did not like them so they are going back) and also Sloan slim ankle pants <a rel="nofollow" href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=9047930320803&amp;cid=95342&amp;locale=en_US">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....cale=en_US</a>. I wanted them to be regular length, not ankle length so ordered Long (31") instead of regular (29"). &nbsp;I did not realize they have a notch at the bottom - probably a good idea for ankle pants, looks a bit strange on regular length. &nbsp;I would like to be able to wear them with booties, like the Edelman Pettys. &nbsp;Martin skinnies are a bit too tight to wear over booties.</p> <p>Here are the Sloans (1-2) and the old Martins (3). &nbsp;It seems that the long length does not quite work with booties (I also tried folding them 1 inch, in #1, but that seems too short). &nbsp;Should I try these in&nbsp;ankle length? &nbsp;How would one wear ankle length pants over booties, especially if there is slight gap&nbsp;- do you wear socks? no-show socks? I like the overall fit and quality, although I am a bit bothered by the wrinkling in the crotch area - I checked the Martins, and they do that a bit too but not as much.</p> <p>What do you think? &nbsp;I am also wearing a new Michael Stars top I found at TJMax - I bought it to use as loungewear but I think it can work as&nbsp;a casual top as well. &nbsp;I am giving faux tuck a try here; not sure if it works.</p>
