Nice to see you back, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2251044 Sun, 06 Feb 2022 13:05:30 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2251044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can’t comment on the length—too many accidental flood pants when I was growing up. But on the flare, I will say that I think it is a thing that’s common on cropped pants. Even the stock photo shows a tiny bit of flair on the “before”s. Doesn’t mean you have to have it, just that it’s not weird. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2251028 Sun, 06 Feb 2022 03:20:37 +0000 Zaeobi 2251028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too short, I'm afraid Also agree the flare doesn't look right either - almost like they pulled the material a bit too taut at the sides. </p> <p>Hope they fix it for you - I like them with your leopard boots Also thanks @Lesley for the heads up on jeans for petites! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250731 Thu, 03 Feb 2022 16:58:33 +0000 Lesley 2250731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love highwaters but these are a tad high to me, too.</p> <p>I will say that I am also 5'2" and have found lots of jeans in the petites online at both J Crew and Madewell... they are ready to go right off the rack! Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250596 Wed, 02 Feb 2022 16:53:39 +0000 Suz 2250596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely. I've had the same issue with a pair of pants, not through alteration but through my own purchasing mistake -- and they never end up feeling right. What a shame, but hopefully you'll get it sorted.&nbsp;</p> <p>And nice to see you! The pants look great otherwise! Also, love your kitty.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250584 Wed, 02 Feb 2022 14:40:49 +0000 Gail 2250584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jeans but too short.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250580 Wed, 02 Feb 2022 14:10:29 +0000 RobinF 2250580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree, cute jeans but too short.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250579 Wed, 02 Feb 2022 14:05:32 +0000 Mirjana 2250579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with others, the length as Angie said. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250558 Wed, 02 Feb 2022 04:29:17 +0000 rachylou 2250558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreed. They need to be longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250538 Wed, 02 Feb 2022 02:11:48 +0000 Jaime 2250538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, a bit longer and they will be perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250528 Tue, 01 Feb 2022 23:45:47 +0000 Angie 2250528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You need another inch and a half on the length! I'm SURE Nordies will be gracious about it.&nbsp;</p> <p>Good to see you, and good luck </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250527 Tue, 01 Feb 2022 23:30:08 +0000 AviaMariah 2250527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies.&nbsp; I can't imagine Nordstroms won't make it right.&nbsp; I'd be really frustrated if they didn't.&nbsp; The only thing I can think might have happened is she didn't realize I wanted to keep the hem until at the very end.&nbsp; Maybe they mark them differently when the hem is being kept?&nbsp; I don't know how that works.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250525 Tue, 01 Feb 2022 23:21:15 +0000 slim cat 2250525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks a bit too short to my eye. I do cuffing as it was mentioned before- wide cuff mostly ( with sneakers and no show socks).<br /> Cute kitties </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250524 Tue, 01 Feb 2022 23:21:08 +0000 Jenni NZ 2250524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am sorry too, but like the others I feel these look a bit short now? And yes I do find the slight flaring out at the sides a bit weird…<br /> How could the alterations department get it wrong when you specified how much to turn them up? Maybe you need to give them the final inseam you want?<br /> I hope Nordstrom makes this right for you. We don’t have such obliging stores here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pant-length-on-cropped-jeans#post-2250519 Tue, 01 Feb 2022 22:50:23 +0000 Aquamarine 2250519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I do think these are a bit too short for the look you are going for.
