They have a nice soft insole, too. I am happy with this purchase.

You've got those jeans at the right length and with the right footwear. (Right to my eye anyway). Well Done. Killer look. LOVE #2.

You intrepid traveller, you.  I love the jeans but have no idea where they should hit. Also love the Tory Burch sweater and the blue jacket. Gorgeous colour for you.  I'm less convinced about the white one -- in the photo it looks a little large and/or stiff in fabrication. But I might need more pics to say for sure. How does it feel to you?  Deb on "spring shopping, finally, and what do you think of the white blazer's length?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-finally-and-what-do-you-think-of-the-white-blazers-length#post-1475317 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 11:12:21 +0000 Deb 1475317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Both blazers are lovely on you colour wise, but I marginally prefer the length of the blue blazer as it makes your legs appear longer and the fit seems a tad better too. I'd probably try one size down with the white one to see how it compares, as the shoulder, length and sleeve length would probably fit better and be more flattering. But that would be my preference and you may well prefer a slightly looser and longer fit. If you keep the white jacket, I think the sleeve will need shortening. They should make very versatile purchases UmmLila.

I like the fit of the blue blazer slightly more than the white one, which seems longer and bigger overall. But that is its own thing and can be useful. Love the jeans.  annagybe on "spring shopping, finally, and what do you think of the white blazer's length?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-finally-and-what-do-you-think-of-the-white-blazers-length#post-1475217 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 02:55:26 +0000 annagybe 1475217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Absolutely love the jeans.

I like your look in pic 2. I think the jeans length is close enough to being right to look intentional, and the ankle strap idea is fab. I also love the blazer/pants combo in pic 3. The white jacket in pic 1 looks a tad big on you to my eye, but the oversize look seems to be coming back, so it could be cutting edge and my eyes just need to adjust to the new proportions.

Love the jeans and I am so not the expert on lengths!

As long as the jeans hit above your ankle, I think they're fine too. The white ones could be made shorter by rolling the hem, but I think the length is fine as is.

I love the blue blazer on you; looks great. jackiec on "spring shopping, finally, and what do you think of the white blazer's length?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-finally-and-what-do-you-think-of-the-white-blazers-length#post-1475132 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 00:00:43 +0000 jackiec 1475132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the length of the white blazer, but I am by no means an expert. Hey, I like the length of the pants, too, but again...... I'm drooling over your Anthro wedges. And that sweater that you're already wearing looks spectacular on you. Oh, scandalous you in the last photo!

The blue one looks good as well. I do not feel qualified to comment on the length of the crops. I like how they look but have no clue where they are supposed to hit.

I found mine a bit more challenging to style than I'd expected. Someone on the forum once had a similar-length white blazer and commented that she wanted to be sure it didn't look like a lab coat. Your styling looks great, not at all like a lab coat! I love the stripe/floral sweater on you, too--it looks wonderful! always trying on "spring shopping, finally, and what do you think of the white blazer's length?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-finally-and-what-do-you-think-of-the-white-blazers-length#post-1475064 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 22:05:34 +0000 always trying 1475064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ love both blazers and the length looks fine to me too.  Pants lengths this spring seem to be so varied, but if you want them to be shorter with some footwear maybe just roll them.

I finally got around to spring shopping after a certain shop bop crackhead said they were having a sale. I had in mind spring blazers and crop flares. I'm short so crop flares are never going to be that cropped on me. What do you think of the length of this white blazer? I have a shorter one, but sometimes I feel a longer length would work better. I can't decide if this is too long. The sweater I was already wearing today, but would not usually plan to be wearing it under these blazers. And then kkards bought the same jeans I did. I'm going to be stubborn and keep mine. I did try ankle strap heels as Angie mentioned, but I have a lot less leg showing than the pants model. I also got white crops, shorter, but still not PPL approved I'm sure ;-) Final bonus photo: Saudi hiking gear! (I did have black as a capsule element, even without the abaya on top ... and that was very racy for me to let it blow open like that.)
