Never - you're just too feminine and adorable! You look like a boyish wrangler (thanks, Journey ;-)</p> <p>This is a fun departure from your usual style, and it looks pretty easy to wear for a Friday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch/page/2#post-617918 Sat, 12 May 2012 01:38:52 +0000 Angie 617918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Rae. It's fun to walk around in the mens and boys department and find things to wear. Men's jeans have such high rises because their indoor plumbing needs more room. My word, it's like instant saggy crotch slouch on a women's body no matter what. Just what I was after </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch/page/2#post-617912 Sat, 12 May 2012 01:34:15 +0000 rae 617912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck, Angie! Finding a new fit of denim is always a project, but it's worth it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch/page/2#post-617844 Sat, 12 May 2012 00:30:34 +0000 Angie 617844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Rae, Zap and Jonesy!</p> <p>Well. I tried on boys jeans today - ALL MILES TOO SHORT. I thought 14 year old boys were at least as tall as me? </p> <p>Might have had some luck in the junior men's department but need to order the right length online. I need a 32 length and tried on a 30. We shall see... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch/page/2#post-617778 Fri, 11 May 2012 22:46:03 +0000 Jonesy 617778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with everyone: Butch is not the word that springs to mind for me. I am not a big fan of the shirt on its own (the sleeves issue) but I think it looks fab with the jacket, and I love the fit of the jeans. With the cuffs and the boots, there is definitely a cowboy thing going on, but I happen to love a cowboy look, so I am into it :). I agree with Una about your hair too. If you had a crewcut, then this might look a bit more butch.</p> <p>Looking forward to seeing Angie in some baggy denim! Loved your comment, Zap, about Obi Wan and Luke! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617774 Fri, 11 May 2012 22:42:27 +0000 catgirl 617774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not at all. Your hair is a feminizing accessory no matter what you are wearing. Though I like a little bit of butch dressing myself, I don't think this is OTT. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617758 Fri, 11 May 2012 22:12:29 +0000 rae 617758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LMAO, Sona! I will behave, just don't come after me with the leash!</p> <p>Journey, I like where you are going with this! I've fallen back in love with cowboys after Cowboys and Aliens. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617744 Fri, 11 May 2012 21:49:57 +0000 journey 617744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oooohhh! not just retro greaser and james dean, but also 1950s cowboy! you look like a feminine version of the old vintage wrangler jean ads! and with the jacket! nice! very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617700 Fri, 11 May 2012 20:46:03 +0000 Sona 617700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If this is butch I'm a dominatrix.</p> <p>enuf said.</p> <p>Have you noticed my leash??</p> <p>:)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617695 Fri, 11 May 2012 20:39:42 +0000 rae 617695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the honesty, Jilly. I think the baggy look falls under the sacrificing-figure-flattery-for-edge category. I was craving something different. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617694 Fri, 11 May 2012 20:39:36 +0000 Kate 617694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adorable! So not butch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617686 Fri, 11 May 2012 20:34:37 +0000 Jilly 617686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know everyone loves this look, but it's just not my fave I've seen on you:) You're so cute, and I don't think all the bagginess does you justice. I do love the jacket on you, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617672 Fri, 11 May 2012 20:16:43 +0000 rae 617672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, what a day to be busy with work! I've missed so much in this post!</p> <p>Angie, these are actually just J. Crew Matchstick jeans sized up. I cannot wear boys' jeans because the rise is too high for me (must have inherited from my dad, who also likes low-rise jeans). The boy's section might work for you, though, Angie!</p> <p>And Shannon, I sure hope it works, because I've felt nice and comfy all day. :)</p> <p>I actually prefer button fly, since buttons don't go bad and slip down the way zippers do. </p> <p>I'm happy I did okay here with the feminine details - might even try it with pumps sometime to help make it girlier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617570 Fri, 11 May 2012 18:30:45 +0000 ManidipaM 617570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nowhere can I see this butch! By the way, am a little smitten by that combination of yellow and blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617514 Fri, 11 May 2012 17:40:01 +0000 Anonymous 617514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see Angie, my recollection of things is awful to say the least. How cool that Rae might be able to help you locate a similar item, sort of like a Luke Skywalker helping Obi-Wan situation... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617511 Fri, 11 May 2012 17:35:54 +0000 Meredith1953 617511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the outfit and don't think it overly "mannish" or butch. I like it best with the blazer and even if you don't rollup the sleeves what about flipping the cuffs back? Pairing the girly yellow bag with it is an awesome choice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617503 Fri, 11 May 2012 17:11:53 +0000 modgrl 617503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember this was a big look around 2006, I had a pair of jeans that I wore like this then. It was a kind of retro greaser look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617501 Fri, 11 May 2012 16:59:49 +0000 christieanne 617501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think this is too butch at all. I did really like the pearls best but that's just my pro-pearl bias You do "menswear" very well and so many of your outfits have that little bit of tomboy edge - even the map bag could be menswear. Just a thought. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617495 Fri, 11 May 2012 16:39:20 +0000 Angie 617495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes, Zap. Button fly - which I found annoying :(. I had them in black, green and blue. </p> <p>Anthing baggy that is matched with tailored is DIVINE! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617491 Fri, 11 May 2012 16:23:57 +0000 Anonymous 617491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ahhhh...I see, Angie :)<br /> are 501 button fly? Perhaps I have the wrong number.<br /> Another "brown noser" here: Baggy jeans &amp; structured blazer is a fab combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617483 Fri, 11 May 2012 16:05:04 +0000 celia 617483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You don't look butch at all.that blue looks very good on you and all the little/big details make the outfit feminin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617480 Fri, 11 May 2012 16:00:47 +0000 MsMary 617480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this, especially with the jacket! Not at all butch, especially with that lovely feminine necklace!</p> <p>And I know the question wasn't directed at me, but yes! I wear my baggy gray trousers with a structured blazer and love how it looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617476 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:55:08 +0000 Angie 617476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zap, I've had many a 501!!. They fit differently to these. Tighter on the thighs, saggier in the crotch and more flared in the low leg. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617474 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:53:30 +0000 Transcona Shannon 617474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you have baggy and structured in the same outfit? I'd like to try something like this with my Gap BF jeans but add a structured blazer like yours on top Rae - can this work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617469 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:50:02 +0000 Elly 617469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with everyone else-- I love the look, and it is better with the jacket simply because the arms are so big here. I love jeans, have been talking about a new pair for ages after mine died in 08-- I have the opposite problem of angie though, so no tips there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617464 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:45:48 +0000 Anonymous 617464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - I had a pair of button fly Levis ( perhaps 501) that fit so similar to Rae's. Remember those? Those might have been from the boys section - I stole them from my brother. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617461 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:41:46 +0000 Angie 617461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think we posted at the same time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617460 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:40:42 +0000 rae 617460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rita, that is how I would usually wear a shirt like this, but I was feeling bored with it and looking for a change. What era does a cuffed jean date to? To me it's a retro-greaser thing, but I know I have a bit of a generation gap for many looks. </p> <p>Dianthus, I thought the same and did try to roll these, but it didn't work out... the sleeves are just too big everywhere but the cuff, so I looked like Popeye with giganto biceps. I'll just try to keep the blazer on throughout the day. :)</p> <p>Zap, yay! Off to my emails now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617459 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:35:06 +0000 Angie 617459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the fact that you are wearing tapered hem jeans, and tucked in the shirt which is pastel turquosie, AND paired it with light shoes, makes a huge difference. Not butch! </p> <p>Divine with the jacket too. I am looking for really baggy jeans too - but I want them to fit like this. I tried the menswear section, but it's all too big. I wonder if I should try the boyswear section. What do you think, Rae? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-baggy-saggy---too-butch#post-617454 Fri, 11 May 2012 15:22:13 +0000 Anonymous 617454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not butch for me either. I call this one menswear inspired.<br /> P.S. I sent an email earlier today in re. next Saturday. I'm sorry I kinda dissapeared for the past few days. </p>
