I also prefer the capris higher up on your knees. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133198 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 13:50:02 +0000 Tricia 133198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It hits me just above the knee, Angie. I'll go post a review. Thanks for the advice about the capris, too - I'll take pics when they come back from being shortened. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133101 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 03:08:24 +0000 Angie 133101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress looks fabulous!!! Please post a review. Where does it hit you on the leg? </p> <p>The capris have great potential. You can shorten both to just over the knee or on the knee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133093 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 02:49:06 +0000 Tricia 133093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! Angie, any opinions on the shorts/clams? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133067 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 02:06:08 +0000 Beth 133067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the Nine West dress on you! Definitely a keeper.</p> <p>I'm not a clam person, so I'll leave that to the experts:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133058 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 01:55:31 +0000 Kate 133058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Maya, at least from the angle of the picture the dress would be just as great without leggings! Either way, I would keep it.</p> <p>I agree with shortening both of the clamdiggers! I can't be sure from your picture of the black ones, but I *think* the buttons would be very easy for your tailor to move up, it just might cost a bit more than a simple hem job. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133042 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 01:34:27 +0000 Maya 133042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I'd prefer the magic dress without the leggings. It just seems too long. It looks great though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133032 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 01:24:14 +0000 Tricia 133032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! Actually I meant to post one more photo of the black ones (they're twill, I think, not denim) - they have this button detail at the bottoms that might make shortening them more difficult. Like this:</p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7pck/S5hF5lFaXhI/AAAAAAAALkc/Zf4qGZHxVjw/s512/IMG_3919.JPG" rel="nofollow">http://lh5.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7.....G_3919.JPG</a></p> <p>But my tailor is awesome, and shortened the zipper sleeves on my moto jacket, so that might not be a problem for him. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133030 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 01:23:16 +0000 Mellllls 133030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you love the Nine West dress. I wore mine on Monday (w/ boots) and loved it even more as the day went on.<br /> I am really clueless about clam diggers so I am going to refer to others. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133028 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 01:21:23 +0000 chewyspaghetti 133028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the magic dress on you!<br /> I'd try a little shorter both for the khaki and the denim- try rolling them up a bit more and taking pictures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-the-ylf-dress-plus-clamdiggers#post-133027 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 01:19:07 +0000 Tricia 133027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I finally ordered the "magic YLF dress" when I saw it for $46, and it came today. I really, really like it. What do you guys think? I'm wearing it here with leggings and flats, although if I keep it I might try to get in one wearing with leggings and boots. </p> <p>This is a weird angle because my husband, who's a foot taller than me, took it from fairly close up. But hopefully you get the idea. It looks long here, but it comes to just above my knee.</p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7pck/S5hD-B8gtdI/AAAAAAAALjM/JFfrZiqeCFQ/s512/IMG_3913.JPG" rel="nofollow">http://lh5.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7.....G_3913.JPG</a></p> <p>Next, I have a question about clamdiggers. I'm making a trip to the tailor on Friday and need opinions on these:</p> <p>I bought these two years ago at the Ann Taylor outlet. I think they're actually the right length, just to the wide part of my calf? These aren't very slim through the thigh and calf - would you call them walk shorts or clams? </p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7pck/S5hD-xtv_CI/AAAAAAAALjU/_6Q90qqejpo/s512/IMG_3916.JPG" rel="nofollow">http://lh3.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7.....G_3916.JPG</a></p> <p>I bought these khaki capris last year and hardly wore them - now I know it was because they're at an unflattering length. These are a little slimmer through the leg, so I think they'd be considered clamdiggers if I shorten them a bit. Here they are at full length:</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7pck/S5hD_BpO_4I/AAAAAAAALjc/aBo7dQRxB8g/s512/IMG_3921.JPG" rel="nofollow">http://lh3.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7.....G_3921.JPG</a></p> <p>And here I rolled them to just below my knee - is this about where I should ask the tailor to hem them? Or would you keep these at all?</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7pck/S5hD_ukHbTI/AAAAAAAALjo/ooZBu9RtYRE/s512/IMG_3923.JPG" rel="nofollow">http://lh6.ggpht.com/_GkbfDyw7.....G_3923.JPG</a></p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p>
