I do get tired of needing different length bootcuts for flats vs heels. That's one reason I like skinnies </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88725 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 22:02:13 +0000 Angie 88725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect, Maya! My straight legs look like that with heels. The hems can’t actually reach the surface of the floor because they are still too tapered, but a bit of scrunch is fab. I really like pants that scrunch at the ankle. Fab bit of textural interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88721 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 21:53:31 +0000 Maya 88721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to wear straight legs Cathy, they're just too darn flattering not to. I have a pair of 2" comfy heels but I never wear them because none of my pants are PPL with heels. I thought maybe I could get away with straight legs since they function as skinnies for me...unless, of course, Angie says not to, since she is the PPL authority. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88685 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 19:44:46 +0000 cciele 88685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is why I don't wear straight legs </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88678 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 18:01:23 +0000 Anonymous 88678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same question! I have some new straight leg (Angie, cover your ears) cords from J Jill that need hemming and i'm puzzled where to put the hem. I think there can be a slight "break" at the front but not so much "scrunching". I think.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88677 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 17:31:39 +0000 Maya 88677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, if they got any longer they might skim the ground in the back and just scrunch more in the front. But I feel like that's a little too much scrunch for me. Maybe it would work on someone taller. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88675 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 17:30:37 +0000 greenglove 88675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think that looks fine, I do not see how they could be better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88674 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 17:28:14 +0000 Maya 88674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>bumping for Angie </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88551 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 01:12:41 +0000 April 88551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I think this length is fine. As Shiny said, you can't really expect straight legs to skim the ground since your foot and shoe will always be wider than the leg opening - unless you are wearing 6-inch heels, and I think I know your style well enough to assume that's not the case. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88549 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 00:56:00 +0000 shiny 88549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks okay to me. These aren't really hitting the bottom because they can only go so far; the shoe is wider than the leg opening. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straight-legs-and-ppl#post-88548 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 00:40:37 +0000 Maya 88548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know skinnies can scrunch around the ankle and therefore don't have to skim the ground, but what is the verdict for straight legs? If they are being worn with heels, do they have to reach the bottom? Mine look a bit like this when I wear them with 2" heels:</p> <p><a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=35286&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=686448" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....pid=686448</a></p> <p>Yes? No? </p>
