Sorry for getting your hopes up.<br /> Thanks Rachylou<br /> Jenni thanks for compliment on my name. I did ballet and Irish dancing as a child but have two left feet so gave them up when my mother let me!!<br /> Glad there are a few people my height on the forum it’s always nice to see how people of the same size adapt to the new trends. I think I am around the same age as you too I am 57. I live in Dublin and I noticed in one of your posts you had an Irish tweed jacket you bought in Ireland. </p> <p>Jenni </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041389 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 09:21:56 +0000 Jenni NZ 2041389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi pirouette what a pretty forum name! I love ballet. Never did it but both my girls did right up to end of high school. I am short too ( have half an inch on you!) and have not tried these kind of pants yet. But they look cute on you. Will be interested to see the slightly more short version. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041383 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 08:48:18 +0000 rachylou 2041383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041356 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 03:28:36 +0000 Anonymous 2041356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah - my bad. I think of another silhouette altogether when I think of cropped flares. &nbsp;Cropped flares to me are fitted through the hip and thigh and are flared (in a small way) at the bottom . &nbsp;Yours look like wide leg crops to me &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041338 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 01:48:40 +0000 Jaime 2041338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great - show the after hem please! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041202 Tue, 09 Jul 2019 17:27:31 +0000 pirouette 2041202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks to everyone who replied you are all very kind.

Thank you for responding. I love your posts and style. It was your post on cropped trousers that inspired me to post the picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041153 Tue, 09 Jul 2019 14:31:39 +0000 Anonymous 2041153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't see your photos, but I LOVE a cropped flare jean and wish I had a pair right now . &nbsp;Mine were several years old and hit the donate bin earlier this year. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041146 Tue, 09 Jul 2019 14:14:34 +0000 pirouette 2041146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your lovely replies. It’s actually very scary posting a picture and it’s lovely to feel so welcome.<br /> I did try the size smaller but it was tight on the waist. These are very comfortable even though a bit loose. I wear a European size 8. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041107 Tue, 09 Jul 2019 12:16:00 +0000 Liz 2041107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! I think you wear them just fine, and height is not an issue at all. I'm a fan of cropped flares and like these. How is the fit around the waist, hips, and thighs for you? (They look like they might be a bit big, but it's hard for me to tell.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041104 Tue, 09 Jul 2019 12:10:45 +0000 Helena 2041104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not great with length but agree with Carla ... A touch shorter and I think you've got it. And nice to meet you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041086 Tue, 09 Jul 2019 10:35:29 +0000 Carla 2041086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie says two inches above the ankle bone. I think you are close. Maybe a smidge more? 1/2 inch? I quite like the colour and style of your crops. The colour is a good bookend for your hair. Looks good with the tucked in black T as well. Welcome to WIW posting, pirouette! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-flares#post-2041084 Tue, 09 Jul 2019 10:09:21 +0000 pirouette 2041084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi<br /> I haven’t posted a photo before but am a long time lurker. I bought cropped flares , I am only 5 “ 1”. and have them turned up to the length I think is ok. What do you think of the length? I have always worn skinny jeans so these are a new departure for me and I am not really sure if they suit someone so short. </p>
