BTW, I really like your jacket/top combo that you're pairing with the grey pants. Very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311892 Fri, 11 Mar 2011 00:06:04 +0000 Beth 311892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look slightly too short as well as not quite tapered enough, Stephanie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311783 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 22:15:58 +0000 lynn 311783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them both. I bought two similar pairs in black and khaki and plan to wear flats with mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311781 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 22:13:39 +0000 Aziraphale 311781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hate to be a naysayer, but I think they're a smidge too short. For the cigarette pant thing to work, they have to end right at the ankle, not above, or they look like capris that are too long. As others have mentioned, you may be able to get them to work if you have them tapered more at the bottom...but then they are true skinnies, not cigarette pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311773 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 21:56:46 +0000 Queen Mum 311773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>perhaps you can have them altered to be a bit more tapered at the ankle. If you do that though, they will have to have a little slit in the side, because otherwise they'd be too narrow to get over your foot most likely<br /> (I might have learned that one the hard way </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311769 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 21:52:59 +0000 Aida 311769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As Una said, I do think the pant needs to be a bit more tapered at the bottom to avoid the "too-long-capri" look in addition to the hemline being on or just above the ankle; these pants have more of a straight-leg look to me. From the front they look right, from the side they look a touch wide. Look at image #1, I would say you want it to look similar along the ankle from all sides (but this ends up being more like super-skinnies than cigarette). Can you link to some of the blogger looks you're liking?</p> <p>EDIT: I think the black ones look longer than the gray in these because of the nude shoe. GREAT shoe choice with these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311642 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 19:04:30 +0000 cheryl 311642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them, both of them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311640 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 19:00:52 +0000 Dani 311640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your leg line is definitely longer with the skinnies. I have a slight preference for the grey outfit but I'm wondering what the black pants would look like with black heels? I don't know if that would help with the leg line. Basically, I'm no help as I struggle with this style as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311635 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 18:54:20 +0000 catgirl 311635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I posted a related question about this issue, and Aida seemed to think the ankle needs to be fitted to avoid the long capri look. This is how I look in cigarette pants too, with my toothpick ankles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311605 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 17:53:12 +0000 amyreh 311605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I personally like them both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311604 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 17:48:46 +0000 Lori 311604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For some reason the grey ones seem to not look quite right, but the black, OTOH look great to me. You look long, lean and pretty chic in pics 2 &amp; 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/one-more-quick-question-cigarette-pants#post-311596 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 17:22:21 +0000 Stephanie 311596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered these ankle-length skinny pants on sale (black and grey) because I have liked the cropped-tapered-pants-avec-heels look on others. These fit me well, but for some reason I get more of a too-long capri pants vibe than I do a cigarette pants vibe. (I can't say how these two things are different, exactly, but I know that capri pants are not part of my style.) What do you think? Keep or return? I have included a picture with skinny jeans too for sake of comparison. </p>
