Wow!&nbsp; They are magic skirts.&nbsp; I bought the black/white stripe and solid black (not ruched).&nbsp; Petite was available, but at 5'4" I got the regular.&nbsp; I love the length as is - about 2" below my knee.&nbsp; Now I know what all the "hoopla"&nbsp;is about, and&nbsp;I'm considering ordering the leopard print from Nordies!&nbsp; :-)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291730 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 23:03:43 +0000 Gigi 1291730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susie, I'm pretty sure that some of the VC tube skirts (though not all) come in petite. Maybe you could check the Nordstrom website? I don't know if the overall fit would be different, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291714 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 22:32:02 +0000 Susie 1291714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm, maybe I should have tried the ruched one. It just looked sooo body con on the hanger. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291702 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 22:06:13 +0000 dashielle (Ann) 1291702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lemming #26 checking in! Striped one arrived today and navy ruched was back ordered until early July. Can't wait to wear as they are sooooo comfy and easy to wear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291645 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 20:58:24 +0000 Suz 1291645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hemmed two of mine and the other didn't need any hemming (even though it was the same size). Different year, different lengths. I could have just snipped them, I guess. Hemming didn't hurt them.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>LOVE</b> and do not find at all too fancy for work-at-home. Comfy as PJs -- I just pair with a casual top for at home wear. With a dressier top and/or topper and footwear for going out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291619 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 20:11:20 +0000 Glory 1291619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was not successful at resisting this last summer and have the striped one. I haven't worn it yet this year but this nudges me to get it out. I think I find it too fancy for my lifestyle as a wahm.&nbsp;<br />I cannot remember but one member had hers hemmed and others simply cut them. They are not hemmed when purchased and the consensus I believe was snipping was the best solution. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291596 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 19:53:30 +0000 lyn* 1291596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>VC skirts look so good on everyone here; I am still trying to resist the lemming-aid, especially since I know it won't work on me!</p> <p>I kind of remember someone just cutting them, but I hope someone who knows about the hemming will be able to chime in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291593 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 19:50:46 +0000 Thistle 1291593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I, too, have drunk lemming-aide ont he VC skirts! That don't fit me now, but they were so comfy and fun when they did. </p> <p>I really love the new ruched one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291582 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 19:39:33 +0000 Susie 1291582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh thank you, Inge...you're the best at providing helpful links!&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />I think just below the knee sounds good...I'll try pinning it like that.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291575 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 19:33:34 +0000 Inge 1291575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love my VC tube skirts, and you are going to love them too, Susie.</p> <p>Here's a forum thread that discusses shortening these skirts, perhaps it will help:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hemming-or-trimming-the-vince-camuto-skirt-suz">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-skirt-suz</a></p> <p>I like mine right below the knee, but "ideal" length is really a matter of personal taste. If you're not entirely sure, perhaps you could post a couple of pics with slightly different lengths and ask for input? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lemming-aid#post-1291559 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 19:16:02 +0000 Susie 1291559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While wearing my lemming pants on Saturday (Athleta ruched crops), I decided to continue my lemming streak&nbsp;by buying not one but two Vince Camuto tube skirts. I got a black and white stripe and a black/cobalt/white pattern.&nbsp;</p> <p>Being only 5'1", they are long on me. Has anyone hemmed theirs? HOW do you hem it since it has the raw edge? And what length do you like? If you have any photos handy I would love to see them!</p>
