				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thank you all for your opinions.&#060;br /&#062;Angie has spoken so no hacking will occur in this house today :-)&#060;br /&#062;Angie, are these slouchy trousers still fashionable or should I pass them on?&#060;br /&#062;The shoes are going back. I quite like them but they are a bit short in length - enough to bother me.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I don't think you should cut them off - I like them they way they are. The new BR jeans look like a great fit!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;LOVE THE DENIM FLARED CROPS. Sized down is perfect.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I vote do not hack either pair of trousers.&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Love the BR crop flares on you, Sveta! I think I must be overly focused on crops right now because I like the slouchy trousers at a crop length. And I love the middle length crop option on the Kut plaids. I say go for it! Showcase those lovely dancer's ankles. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Agree with Staysfit on the sling backs. They look fine, but aren't wowing me. They look a little wide in width, but perhaps it's just the photo. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Gorgeous pearls!
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Like plaids in the middle length. Then, my eyes would love the slochy pants cropped, but a little longer, half in between from where you did fold them now! Great pearls and love the new jeans and sling backs as they are.&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like the plaid as is and in the second picture also.  I'm not sure which I prefer.  The third length is not good, I think it's  because it ends up hitting you in an awkward place for that particular style of pants and it makes your long legs look shorter- believe it or not. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062; The slouches, hmm, I'm not sure I would crop those.  &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;The BR kick flares look amazing!  Great addition to your wardrobe!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I think you can do better with the shoes.  I would say keep looking if possible.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I love the BR crop flares! And the shoes, in principle, look good with them. There are so many things around,  something better comes along so you don't need to keepsomething not quite right. I agree with Cerinda on the others...
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Oh, yes, the BR crop flares are terrific on you. &#038;nbsp;Like shevia, I would opt for the larger size in those very cute shoes. &#038;nbsp;I prefer your Kuts as they are, and would roll the slouches (or purge them).&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like the plaid pants at the middle length also, and not so much the second pair. The jeans look fantastic!&#060;br /&#062;I'm not sure about the shoes, I didn't notice a problem at first glance at all, but if i look closely your heel does seem to be a bit longer than the shoe.&#038;nbsp;
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Ok.&#060;br /&#062;
I quite like the length of your Kuts as they are, I think with sneakers, as you have them here, the length is just right for a spring day. I also like the shortest version.&#060;br /&#062;
I prefer the slouchy pants short&#060;br /&#062;
Your jeans look fab!  Sized down?  Didn't yoy do what I did and get your size plus one up?  Did you go back for more!  Just curious...  I'm pretty sure I couldn't handle mine any smaller, but it does make me wonder if I should try.&#060;br /&#062;
And I think the shoes look too small. At least in the pics, your heel appears to be hanging off the back.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Sveta, first, I love the new BR crops.&#060;br /&#062;
I'm not sure about the Kuts as I like them both ways.  Which would give you the most wear?  As for the slouchy trousers, I think that I would like that style best pegged and rolled to use the slouchiness..  Could they be shortened more to be slim culottes?  However, I do not have the imagination to see how each would really look.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;The plaid pants look great cropped, I prefer the middle length, but I also like them at your ankle.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I'm not sure I like the slouchy pants cropped.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;BR jeans look fab on you. And I have your same shoe problem, when they don't come in half sizes they usually don't work for me. I do think they are a bit short. Fingers crossed the next size fits.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I had these plaid KUT jeans for 2 seasons now and like them a lot. They are a bit on the short side on me - barely reach my ankles (pic#1) &#038;nbsp;- so unless I wear them with taller booties I tend to roll them up. Now I am thinking - should I just chop them off instead into cropped jeans for a more streamlined look than rolled up?&#060;br /&#062;I have tried to pin them into different length in pic #2 - any preference? I on purpose took pictures with flat loafers because I want to be able to wear them with flats sans ankle straps (as I do not have those yet).&#060;br /&#062;Any preference for the length? Or should I discard the whole idea and leave them be ankle length?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I also contemplated to crop my old slouchy trousers which I have for 4th year now. I found that I wore them a lot for the first 2 years but lately do not reach for them that often. I was thinking that maybe if I crop them it will refresh them for me? I liked what I saw in the mirror but looking at the pictures I am not sure anymore. Should I better leave them full length? And if so - is this style still current?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;And bonus: my new BR kick flares sized down as per Angie - and square toe block heel &#038;nbsp;Dea pumps from Trotters. I am keeping the jeans - the tags came off today - but not sure about the pumps. I like them and they are quite comfortable but do they look a bit short on me? I have also ordered a size up to try but I am afraid that the whole size up would be too big - and there are no half sizes:-(&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Also you can see my new pearl necklace &#038;nbsp; - I could not resist this weekend! :-)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Thanks for your help!!!&#060;/p&#062;
