Knee-covering and long all the way.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-long-tweed-shorts-how-to-hem#post-1349487 Sun, 07 Sep 2014 19:43:51 +0000 Diana 1349487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote let them out and wear them as culottes. Really on trend and I think you'll have fun with it. </p> <p>I have poison eye for Bermudas so I don't like the middle length. I think the shorter style w/cuff is flattering but I'm not sure about whether or not the shorts with tights thing is passé yet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-long-tweed-shorts-how-to-hem#post-1349482 Sun, 07 Sep 2014 19:40:34 +0000 Anonymous 1349482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Easy in my eye ! &nbsp;I love the styling you did in pic 9 the best - shows both sporty luxe and an intentional wearing of a "new length" piece ....which could get lost in translation trying to dress them up. &nbsp;Does that make sense? &nbsp;I know what I mean, just can't quite articulate it today .</p> <p>&nbsp;So I &nbsp;vote the length as you have them. Also love them with the red Munro booties (that's what they are, right?)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-long-tweed-shorts-how-to-hem#post-1349479 Sun, 07 Sep 2014 19:39:10 +0000 annagybe 1349479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them more when they are covering the knee. Like in #4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-long-tweed-shorts-how-to-hem#post-1349476 Sun, 07 Sep 2014 19:37:32 +0000 Sal 1349476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them longer as in 6-9. I think that given they are a fall or wintery look having them longer is more in keeping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-long-tweed-shorts-how-to-hem#post-1349470 Sun, 07 Sep 2014 19:32:45 +0000 cinnamon fern 1349470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them best in #6. &nbsp;How far below the knee are they now? &nbsp;How much of the top of the boots do they cover? &nbsp;I'm thinking shorten a little bit, but not as much as in #10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-long-tweed-shorts-how-to-hem#post-1349459 Sun, 07 Sep 2014 19:26:46 +0000 Tanya 1349459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have had these wool tweed shorts for a couple of years, and they have been sitting in my closet unworn, since they had a bug cuff right across the knee they made them look frumpy.&nbsp; I have been meaning to have them shortened for a while and never got to it.&nbsp; So ti is finally time to have them fixed.<br />I have undone the cuff which makes the hem look kind of off, and I need&nbsp; to take them to the tailor to have them hemmed properly.&nbsp; But now I am very unsure of the length.&nbsp; I have been attracted a lot lately to various longer shorts looks.&nbsp; I have pinned&nbsp; some looks (first row) and tried to recreate them in the second row below.<br />I have three options:<br />1.&nbsp; Leave them long, like in the outfits #6-#9.&nbsp; I could even let the hem out longer as there are 2' of extra material.<br />2. Hem them right above the knee, like in #10.<br />3. Hem them shorter, with a cuff, like in #11/12.<br />What do you recommend? All the suggestions on improvement of the outfits are welcome as well.</p>
