Very reassuring to know you would not let me go out with these shoes, thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1819188 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 22:59:26 +0000 Carole 1819188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the outfit you wore, 6! And the culottes are super cute for you...I'm wondering about a different shoe to try with them, ankle straps or higher vamp slip ons?!

I like the look of tucked tops more and more, though, despite my short waist. I suppose it's coming back in fashion after years of untuck-semi-tuck-faux-tuck... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818748 Mon, 26 Jun 2017 10:17:41 +0000 Style Fan 1818748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The liberty printed shirt looks amazing on you.&nbsp; I prefer the shirts untucked for a more casual look.&nbsp; I like the culottes and the shorts.&nbsp; Both look great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818672 Mon, 26 Jun 2017 00:46:06 +0000 Brooklyn 1818672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The floral shirt is very pretty on you. I like the hacked culottes. Could you still roll them and wear them as shorts, or are they too bulky? Because I think they look good as shorts too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818604 Sun, 25 Jun 2017 18:53:33 +0000 skylurker 1818604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ Tanya : you went on a hacking project yourself last year, no? How did it go, were you happy with the cropped trousers you made?</p> <p>@ Angie : yes, exactly, I don't like that kind of wide cropped pants.<br /> Except yours are designer and look gorgeous </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818583 Sun, 25 Jun 2017 17:58:55 +0000 Angie 1818583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hacked blush culottes look fab.&nbsp;</p> <p>So if I understand correctly, you don't like wide crops like these (see pic) - or you might because they're more streamlined? (They are my favourite blue jeans!)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818561 Sun, 25 Jun 2017 16:21:07 +0000 Anonymous 1818561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That floral print loves you!&nbsp; I always was drawn to Cacharel clothes, so pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818520 Sun, 25 Jun 2017 12:36:44 +0000 Tanya 1818520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The floral shirt looks good on, and I especially like it with shorts in #6.&nbsp; I agree with the rest in terms of the length of the newly hacked blush pants, and what a fun project. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818487 Sun, 25 Jun 2017 07:23:46 +0000 skylurker 1818487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all. I have a new pair of culottes, then.</p> <p>@ Delurked : I'll have them hemmed properly, yes, a fringy hem would drive me crazy.</p> <p>@ Angie : yes, I hacked the blush jeans.<br /> Sorry, I got you confused because I don't use the words right.<br /> By "culottes" I mean the jupe-culottes of my childhood : wide, around the knee length. I like them.<br /> By "wide legged cropped" I mean : wide and longer, from mid-calf to ankle. I like them on others when they are made of fluid fabric. I find them overwhelming on me but I don't say never.<br /> I don't like them made of stiff fabric, esp not if the part from knee to ankle is very flared. In stiff fabric, the more straight and streamlined they are, the better they look in my eyes.</p> <p>@ Smittie, Jane, Emily k : thanks for helping me with the colour combos, I think you're right about the contrast with navy against blush and the last colour coordination.</p> <p>@ Smittie : thanks for weighing in on tuck vs untucked, being short-waisted I always have doubt about that.</p> <p>@ Emily k : I'd better not get creative with my clothes, it usually ends up in disaster It's quite a miracle I didn't ruin my jeans today.</p> <p>@ Shevia : well, no, the roll is really bulky, I'd have to hack higher to make shorts out of them. Yes, the floral shirt is a prize, they don't make them anymore and the cotton is really stellar quality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818470 Sun, 25 Jun 2017 02:49:39 +0000 Jaime 1818470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them as culottes; I like them as shorts. Can you actually wear them as shorts or do they unroll. The floral top is a prize! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818414 Sat, 24 Jun 2017 21:29:03 +0000 Jenni NZ 1818414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the look of the culottes as opposed to wearing as shorts too, but I love the grey ones as they are with that floral shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818412 Sat, 24 Jun 2017 21:17:25 +0000 Anonymous 1818412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in the culottes - I vote keeping them as is.<br /> Amd that Liberty print shirt is to die for!

Both successful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818399 Sat, 24 Jun 2017 20:39:36 +0000 Emily K 1818399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the culotte length--it's really good on you. &nbsp;They look great with the striped shirt. &nbsp;I like the tonal contrast in that outfit. &nbsp;And I like the Liberty print with the grey shorts in #6--probably for the same reason. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818395 Sat, 24 Jun 2017 20:25:14 +0000 Amy Isabella 1818395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The vintage floral looks lovely on you.

LOVE the culottes (wide leg crops) - which I thought you didn't?&nbsp;</p> <p>Shorts in #6 look cute too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818357 Sat, 24 Jun 2017 19:00:01 +0000 Anonymous 1818357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm torn. Do you wear shorts often? Need more? If not, maybe keep as culottes, although I would prefer a finished hem at that length. I think they'll work either way. Totally not helping... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shorts-florals#post-1818351 Sat, 24 Jun 2017 18:29:06 +0000 skylurker 1818351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one floral item in my wardrobe, it's an old vintage Cacharel Liberty shirt. I was wearing it today #6.<br /> I'm more into geometric stuff (stripes, checks).</p> <p>Had too much time on my hands today and played mischief with the blush jeans : snap.</p> <p>Don't know where I'm going with this. What do you think?</p> <p>#1 : culottes</p> <p>#2 : shorts</p> <p>#3 : could I please, please, stop pestering you with the damned blushed jeans!!! </p>
