I love black watch (and white watch, but who's counting). Love your modern sweater with the classic plaid. And the boots are perfect with them too. Perfect, whatever genre you are invoking!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889894 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 03:35:59 +0000 velvetychocolate 889894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I really love these pants on you! Shannon and Angie are onto something..the booties bookend your hair *and* they somehow elongate your leg line so that they don't really look like "cropped" pants. The overall effect of your ankle pants with booties styling has totally remedied the usual leg-chopping effect of 'short' pants. <br /><br />I think you may have found the perfect trick to successfully wearing cropped pants!!! I can't believe it, but you've done it <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889891 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 03:32:04 +0000 Tanya 889891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh my, we are getting proposals here now&nbsp;:)<br /><br />Seriously though, I think the booties make the pant length work. &nbsp;Love the blackwatch plaid! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889884 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 03:21:35 +0000 rae 889884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think the booties did what you wanted them to do! Must have missed this suit somehow - can't wait to see it in full concert mode! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889336 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 20:08:28 +0000 catgirl 889336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ornella, if you proposed, I would accept! :)&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889334 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 20:07:20 +0000 Ornella 889334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <i>'This may break Angie's fainting streak'</i><span><i><br /></i>Genius. If I was a guy and we were both single, I'd ask you to marry me!<br /><br />Now, the outfit. Two strong pieces + boots, I love that on you. YLF and IMO&nbsp;this can be&nbsp;FFBO.</span> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889333 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 20:06:23 +0000 catgirl 889333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So, Angie, does this work, barely work,&nbsp;or does this trigger ankle-pant poison eye? &nbsp;Am still&nbsp;trying to learn how to do the ankle pant thing! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889328 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 19:58:59 +0000 Angie 889328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The booties <b><i>do</i></b> add length to the pants :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889305 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 19:41:54 +0000 Anonymous 889305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow! I love this. Blackwatch is one of my favourite tartans and I love the pants with the blue drapey sweater. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889283 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 19:30:02 +0000 catgirl 889283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Rachylou, your knowledge of obscure underground fashion is amazing and&nbsp;intimidating! &nbsp;But yes, was hoping to look Beat, or Off-Beat, or something along those lines, so glad you got that idea! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889281 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 19:28:17 +0000 catgirl 889281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yeah, there will be no skin till at least late May. &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889280 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 19:28:02 +0000 rachylou 889280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Eep eep eep! I really like! I saw "black watch" and made a beeline to this thread, lol. And now I learn it's a whole suit and I'm swooning!<br /><br />I hear Anna on the pant length, but I'm also having a punk (post punk, new wave, mod-ska, <i>whatever that freeking era was, ok?!</i>) fashion flashback. I like the off length.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889233 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:46:57 +0000 annagybe 889233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Eh, they look too short and not really cropped. I think it would look more intentional if there was a smidge of skin showing. But it's probably too cold for that. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889228 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:45:00 +0000 lyn67 889228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes, mee too, think the&nbsp;boots are doing a good job here elongating legline and love the color combo and slounchy silouette on you! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889227 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:41:33 +0000 Thistle 889227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You are going to rock the full blackwatch suit!<br /><br />I second Shannon and Suz and think the boots work to elongate the leg, even without PPL. And I like the way you styled it with the sloughy/drapey sweater. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889219 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:34:02 +0000 Suz 889219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh oh! If Angie doesn't faint, I will! <b>LOVE</b> it! Like Shannon, I think your boots deal with the length issue very well indeed. The drapey sweater looks amazing with these. But I can't wait to see it as a suit.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889206 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:22:28 +0000 catgirl 889206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes, I would - in fact, I'm thinking of wearing it as a suit to the Macklemore concert on Friday! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889204 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:21:33 +0000 Transcona Shannon 889204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love this Una! I think the length of the ankle pants works because you've essentially elongated the leg line with the addition of the boots.The drapey top is beautiful with these trousers.&nbsp;<br /><br />Will you wear the blazer and trousers as a full on Blackwatch suit? I bet that would ROCK! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwatch-ankle-pants#post-889200 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:18:16 +0000 catgirl 889200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This may break Angie's fainting streak.&nbsp; I love these plaid pants from Zara (thanks to MNsara for pointing them out to me!) and you've already seen the matching blazer.&nbsp; Unfortunately it's boot weather here, so I tried pairing them with my Harley boots for a Beatles kind of look.&nbsp; Not sure it worked or if this silhouette is best for an IT, but it's comfy and I love the blackwatch!<br /><br />Feedback and suggestions welcome!
