Not too short at all. I like it with the column of colour. All three looks work. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far/page/2#post-1639693 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 18:00:15 +0000 rabbit 1639693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Gigi</b> - yeah, I have to see how I feel walking around, I've seen quite a wide variety of lengths on pinterest looks. That blouse is fun isn't it? It's not on their website I don't think, but is in the stores now. The straps adjust in the back so you can make them shorter. I think I'm wearing a small and I'm usually a medium so it is cut oversized. It's not totally opaque, so I'm planning to wear it with a strapless cami underneath I think.</p> <p><b>Aliona </b>- I was wondering about cropped flare length in the past versus now. Because there are/were capris also, but those are even shorter. Glad it works to your eye.</p> <p><b>smittie</b> - yes, I'm going to cut off some straighter crops too. I didn't think these would be as flared cut further up the leg, but I'm adjusting to it, and I also like that it's a loose flare.</p> <p>Thanks all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far/page/2#post-1639555 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 12:52:05 +0000 Anonymous 1639555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think the flare is too wide, but it is wider than the straighter crops from BR and the GAP. Length looks perfect to me.</p> <p>I actually rather like that the flare isn't so rigid and sort of flaps down a bit. Sort of a bit looser...dunno how you feel about it though.</p> <p>I think ALL your outfits are really on trend in this set because of pant length and footwear alone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far/page/2#post-1639531 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 11:24:42 +0000 Anonymous 1639531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all of the looks! Please find a suitable event and wear outfit 2, stat! That blouse is beautiful on you. And those shoes...swoon. </p> <p>Definitely PPL to my eye. I have been on a 60s French movie kick, and notice the female characters wearing crops at this length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639522 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 10:40:53 +0000 kkards 1639522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW…..love the column of color in #1, #2 is fab for the way the off shoulder blouse combines with the light blue of the jeans and shoes and gives the whole look a soft floatly feel, and then #3 shows the&nbsp;versatility of jeans.<div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639497 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 08:22:13 +0000 Gigi 1639497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad Angie answered the question with regard to the length...I wasn't sure about it. I have to say that I adore look 2 on you! I may pop into our F21 and see if they have that blouse. I'm short in the torso, but it would alter easily enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639483 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 04:57:49 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1639483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ah, interesting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639482 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 04:35:10 +0000 rabbit 1639482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all, good to know that they are within acceptable length parameters for such things. I'll see how outfit #2 and 3 feel out and about.</p> <p><b>Janet</b> - yes, the top is kind of a love it or not so much sort of shape. It's a little awkward to do proportions with because it's wide rather than long. I think I'm going to try shortening the straps a little (they are adjustable) for a slightly higher neckline.</p> <p><b>viva, Angie, Colette, jill58, deb, Maneera </b>and<b> lisap </b> -- yeah I was thinking that #2 had both trendy going on (which I like), and boho, (which is more of a departure for me, but I thought everything is worth a try out). &nbsp;</p> <p><b>Marilyn and Una, </b>and <b>texstyle</b> -- I like the blazer with jeans too, that's probably the most 'in my comfort zone' of these looks, so I'll wear it out for sure. </p> <p><b>Ginger</b> - yes, I remember your recent luck with Asos refined shoes. Hope they are serving you well :)</p> <p><b>Diana</b> - I've enjoyed adding this powdery blue color into my wardrobe which is mostly neutrals and brights. It ends up working with a lot of other colors, but I love columns.</p> <p><b>Sveta </b>- good point, I'm planning to wear them pretty much only with flats. I have another pair of dark jeans I'll cut off longer to wear only with boots I think.</p> <p><b>shevia</b> - thanks, that's why I was not so sure after cutting, I looked on pinterest and saw a lot of longer cropped flares in street style looks. I might stretch the denim a little when it's wet and I hang these to dry.</p> <p><b>Firecracker </b>and<b> rachylou</b> - isn't that weird? I think it's because these were bootcuts and sloped evenly from the knee area down. So even though technically the opening is smaller as I went up, the proportions with regard to the rest of the pant and to my calves didn't look that different. And no matter where you cut, the pant opens up at that point, rather than hanging down as it would with a lower hem. &nbsp;See exhibit A below: </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639474 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 04:05:47 +0000 rachylou 1639474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Terrific! I'm glad to know the flare doesn't diminish as you go up, because I'm gonna try hacking some jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639470 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 03:56:02 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1639470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they're perfect. I like #2 the best--that top is so pretty on you, and it looks very current. I think all the outfits work really well. And I'm fascinated by your revelation that the flare doesn't get narrower as you go up the leg. That one has me stumped. (I have yet to try cropping my flares--which are actually bootcuts, btw.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639461 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 02:56:09 +0000 Debbie 1639461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the length. The top in photo 2 is stunning on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639450 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 02:31:33 +0000 Jaime 1639450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look terrific. I would definitely keep the blouse in #2 - perhaps I am just vicariously enjoying that trend on you. #3 is smashing. They are a bit short compared to some uber trend setters but I have definitely see this length in plenty of pictures. Love the shoes too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639445 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 02:18:59 +0000 Maneera 1639445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That seems to be the perfect length! #3 is a little unexpected and absolutely fantastic. Love the outfit! #2 is sooooo on-trend and looks smashing on you! Big thumbs up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639424 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 01:15:42 +0000 Anonymous 1639424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks perfectly on trend - and the off-the-shoulder top is gorgeous on you . &nbsp;All three are 10's in my book.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639332 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 21:22:45 +0000 Isabel 1639332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not an expert by any means. &nbsp;But I think that they look utterly fantastic. &nbsp;I would soooooo look at you and admire you if you walked passed me on the street.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love every outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639330 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 21:17:04 +0000 Sveta 1639330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them at this length, especially with such pronounced flare. Gorgeous with those blue shoes! At this shorter length they are easier to pair with flats for sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639325 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 20:55:41 +0000 Angie 1639325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the length and the powder blue shoes with the faded denim. Soft and pretty. My Gap GF's are this length and I love them.&nbsp;</p> <p>#2 is Killer. Very, very trendy!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639315 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 20:34:10 +0000 Diana 1639315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this.&nbsp; This is the length I'd want for myself, because I primarily wear flat or low heeled shoes.&nbsp; The column of blue is my favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639311 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 20:30:31 +0000 Ginger 1639311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these! All of the combinations are great; maybe #3 is the most stunning. And I love the shoes - I'm wearing blush ones just like them today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639300 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 20:04:53 +0000 Anonymous 1639300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I think they look fab as they are.

Also the shoes are great. I know nothing about the length of cropped flares but to me they look fine.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639297 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 19:59:58 +0000 MsGreer 1639297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Extremely cute!!! 2&amp;3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639296 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 19:58:07 +0000 Colette 1639296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To my eye these look to be the length I see all the models wearing in ads. But take my opinion with a grain of salt because I am still struggling trying to figure out the right length for crops on myself.</p> <p>But, they look great on you and I think all three outfits work. My favorite is #2 and totally agree with what viva said about it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639294 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 19:57:04 +0000 Marilyn 1639294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They all look great to my eye, Rabbit.&nbsp; Number 3 is my favourite.....I adore a blazer paired with jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639292 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 19:53:19 +0000 lindalu 1639292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all three of your looks!&nbsp; Those shoes are fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639289 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 19:49:05 +0000 DonnaF 1639289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am no expert, but I prefer this length because it looks 1,000% intentional.&nbsp; A longer length might appear that you found a great deal on a Petite size and know nothing on PPL.&nbsp; I love all three of your iterations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639288 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 19:40:59 +0000 Banoffi 1639288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like outfits 2 and 3 on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639283 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 19:21:09 +0000 viva 1639283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The second outfit is ridiculously on trend. I think you MUST wear that to an outing this summer and show all the girls HOW IT IS DONE.&nbsp;</p> <p>I am no expert on PPL and I also think there is a lot of leeway. I love how #2 looks though, especially with those shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/testing-cropped-flares-which-i-may-um-have-cropped-too-far#post-1639281 Mon, 04 Apr 2016 19:19:40 +0000 texstyle 1639281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Una said. </p>
