Try wearing them with a fitted button-front shirt -- the kind that it tailored for a woman, so it shows your waist. Woven shirt fabric glides over any squishy bits and is very flattering. Also can be unbuttoned to form a v-shape neckline. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-last-question-then-im-going-to-bed-bootcut-jeans#post-1091167 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 01:28:03 +0000 DonnaF 1091167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you tried semi-tucking your tops? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-last-question-then-im-going-to-bed-bootcut-jeans#post-1090422 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 17:17:14 +0000 Diana 1090422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I wear fluid tops with bootcuts, I prefer the tops to be a little shorter than I like with skinnies (like maybe hitting at the hip bone instead of the crotch) or semi-tucking the tops for a longer leg line.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-last-question-then-im-going-to-bed-bootcut-jeans#post-1090253 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 15:41:38 +0000 Angie 1090253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bet your new&nbsp;bootcuts are fitted in the rear and thighs. Fluid <i>and</i> oversized tops look great with that silhouette. The oversized tops usually needs a welt for structure. Wear heels and low contrast fluid tops with the jeans first. That will dip your toes into the trend and before you know it - it will all feel very normal.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-last-question-then-im-going-to-bed-bootcut-jeans#post-1090163 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 14:09:25 +0000 Lisa 1090163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also typically sport my bootcuts with shorter and/tighter fitting tops.&nbsp; But this season I've gone for looser cropped tops with a layer (a button down shirt with a cropped sweater)&nbsp;or paired with an&nbsp;overall looser top (a poncho works great with bootcuts for a real boho look if that's your thing). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-last-question-then-im-going-to-bed-bootcut-jeans#post-1090152 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 13:42:20 +0000 Glory 1090152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would hang onto the bootcuts and put them on probation for a bit. Pair them with a sweater or less form fitting knit for the winter. Try wearing a cami underneath. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-last-question-then-im-going-to-bed-bootcut-jeans#post-1090019 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 06:26:26 +0000 Neel 1090019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't ditch them!!!! Wear them over straighter tunics with a cropped jacket. Or banded fluid tops. Or fitted tops with slightly boxy long jacket. Or button downs with cardigan. Or super cropped boxy tops. You shouldn't ditch anything that you love :)</p> <p>Oh go for a higher rise if low rise makes you conscious about your stomach. My muffin tops love my high rise bootcuts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-last-question-then-im-going-to-bed-bootcut-jeans#post-1090018 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 06:18:58 +0000 Tricia 1090018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I should add - my style is pretty eclectic. Like I love retro fashion, like mid-late 60s mod style, but also am liking a lot of Angie's more tailored modern looks lately. Definitely not boho or super preppy or RATE, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-last-question-then-im-going-to-bed-bootcut-jeans#post-1090017 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 06:16:49 +0000 Tricia 1090017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now I remember why I take looooong YLF breaks - I get all anxious and want to burn everything in my closet and everything feels WRONG.</p> <p>So. Jeans. Until we moved last year, I only wore them on weekends and I had two silhouettes I liked best:</p> <p>- skinnies with long tunic type tops and flats or boots. I still like that look a lot.</p> <p>- bootcuts with a more fitted top and heels.</p> <p>So I just replaced my bootcuts with a really nice pair. But...I have now gone off fitted knit tops. I used to love them because they accentuated my waist and with a V-neck flattered my bust, but I am self-conscious about my squishy stomach and I just don't like knits much anymore because of it. It's not even that big - it's probably just me that notices, but I DO notice!&nbsp;But more fluid tops with bootcuts look wrong to my eye, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Should I ditch the bootcuts? I love the way they make my legs look, but I can't figure out the tops.&nbsp; </p>
