I agree with DonnaF...you should assess the length with the rest of the outfit and shoes, as well as when you plan to wear them (work, weekend, etc.). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892335 Wed, 21 Feb 2018 01:42:31 +0000 MsLuna 1892335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m with Suz: you can wear them full length, ankle and cropped. I still wear skinnies in colder weather and I tend to leave mine full length because I like the unbroken leg line with my ankle boots. Cropped also looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892327 Wed, 21 Feb 2018 01:22:47 +0000 DonnaF 1892327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You may also be able to tuck them up or roll them to ankle length, depending upon how narrow they are at the bottom. You may also want to review how the proportions look with whatever you plan to wear on top and in your footwear. Some combos might look awkward with the pants at certain lengths. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892303 Wed, 21 Feb 2018 00:24:37 +0000 Angie 1892303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What <b>Suz </b>said about length. I like them best cropped.&nbsp;</p> <p>High waisted skinnies are THE jeans I see youngsters wear on the street. VERY popular.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892232 Tue, 20 Feb 2018 21:26:46 +0000 Greenjeans 1892232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i>. . . and feel "cooler" (I mean temperature-wise).<br /></i><br />Ha! &nbsp;Love this, <b>Suz</b>. &nbsp;Thanks for chiming in. &nbsp;I've been watching <i>Queer Eye </i>on Netflix this week and their resident fashion expert, Tan France, rocks the ankle look. &nbsp;Because of his influence it's probably my favorite length of the three.</p> <p>I'm also VERY open to the full length look. &nbsp;Do you recall Angie saying it looks fresh to her eye right now? &nbsp;It appeals to me because no hemming. &nbsp;Though I agree, that makes it less about the shoes. &nbsp;(Creates some shoe-confusion for me.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892201 Tue, 20 Feb 2018 20:57:34 +0000 Suz 1892201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you can wear them full length, ankle length, or cropped. Ankle and cropped let you show off fun footwear and feel "cooler" (I mean temperature-wise).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892146 Tue, 20 Feb 2018 19:47:41 +0000 Greenjeans 1892146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback, <b>Aurore</b> and <b>Cardiff girl</b>! &nbsp;</p> <p><i>Skinnies and slims are still the most widespread cuts everywhere I go.<br /></i><br />Yes! &nbsp;I know I'm ridiculously late to the skinny party (it's taken me <i>this long</i> to find a pair I feel good in) but am still seeing them everywhere. &nbsp;</p> </p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892103 Tue, 20 Feb 2018 17:59:31 +0000 Cardiff girl 1892103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that you can wear any trouser style at the moment as long as you feel comfy in it.I agree with Aurore on the length and if it’s casual and they are too long I would wear them rolled to a cuff effect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892086 Tue, 20 Feb 2018 17:25:47 +0000 Aurore 1892086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>According to <a href="http://corporette.com/flared-pants-hems-and-commutes/" rel="nofollow">Corporette</a>, the perfect length for skinnies in a business environment&nbsp;would be&nbsp;at the ankle. I would tend toward thinking it would be the same for a casual environment.</p> <p>And I definitely think you can wear them! Skinnies and slims are still the most widespread cuts everywhere I go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppl-high-waist-skinnies#post-1892078 Tue, 20 Feb 2018 17:12:46 +0000 Greenjeans 1892078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loved the trend report! &nbsp; But it raised a PPL question for me. &nbsp;Can anyone speak to the perfect pant length for high waist skinnies?</p> <p>I just bought my first pairs. &nbsp;I adore them because they fit and I <i>hope</i> they're still on trend because I'm excited to wear them this spring.</p> <p>• I hear skinnies are taking a back seat. &nbsp;Can I still wear?&nbsp;</p> <p>• &nbsp;What it the PPL for high waist skinnies? &nbsp;Angie, I've noticed you've been wearing some pants longer these days &amp; am curious where skinny pant leg length is going before hacking. &nbsp;At their current length they puddle a tad around ankles (similar or maybe a bit more than on model below). &nbsp;I am wearing full length and rolled depending on shoes. &nbsp;</p> <p>Thoughts?</p> <p> </p>
