I wore black BR culottes today with the sleeveless funnel neck Trouve NAS sweater you ordered and put on my radar. Many thanks. I think you kept it; I love its somewhat structured shape over the culottes, though proportions might work differently as I am 5'8" and everything but an IT. Glad Angie weighed in on length as I am hoping to understand how to gauge it better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1730335 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 22:23:19 +0000 texstyle 1730335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed this before but I like both outfits and agree with the hemming. LOVE you in #2, those boots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1729896 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 00:28:12 +0000 Bennett 1729896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You should not shorten those pants, I think they are perfect as is. If anything, I would lengthen them by 1 1/2"! I'm firmly with Deborah on this, the longer length looks more current. I love both outfits completely. Stylish lady! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578509 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 16:20:12 +0000 JAileen 1578509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love the military sweater. Both outfits look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578453 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 14:09:18 +0000 Angie 1578453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes - hem a couple of inches. The culottes outfit is gorgeous on you. Elegant. </p> <p>And #2 is killer. The boots are sooooo you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578415 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 12:16:36 +0000 lyn67 1578415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!!! Culotte outfit is TDY including proper length, pls don't hem!!!! Love the second one, too:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578410 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 12:07:36 +0000 shedev 1578410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll leave the culottes for others to decide. The second outfit is TDF.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578391 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 10:47:16 +0000 unfrumped 1578391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in the weeds on "proper" lengths, too but I have a sugar eye for the shorter length with boots. Also maybe for your height. Maybe Angie will give fashion perspective.<br /> The military sweater is too great!<br /> What are those boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578384 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 10:05:14 +0000 Karie 1578384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the culottes look OK at this length, but I would prefer to see them a little shorter. Your new boots look super chic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578380 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 09:27:16 +0000 Deborah 1578380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits look so good! Please don't hem the culottes:(. This length is perfection to my eye, shorter and the look won't be nearly so modern:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578369 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 07:03:34 +0000 CocoLion 1578369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, those boots in #2 really make the outfit! &nbsp;Love that one.</p> <p>Great idea to style the culottes with the fencing sweater and OTK boots. &nbsp;I agree on shortening them, I would go more than 1.5 inches, making them fall in the below the knee length. &nbsp;Rather than calf length. &nbsp;I know that makes them more like gauchos but my culottes are longer like yours and I'm not wearing them enough, because I feel they are too long for my frame. &nbsp;Clearly my perspective comes from the orphanage.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578336 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 04:34:12 +0000 Sara L. 1578336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hee, Shevia beat me to it! I can't quite tell what's going on with the boots and culotte length with your legs crossed. It looks fine as far as I can tell. I like the culotte/tall boot combo.</p> <p>I do a lot of ylf on my phone though and the small screen isn't always conducive to detailed analysis. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578310 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 02:32:17 +0000 Jaime 1578310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I like the length. To be honest, the bloggerly cross leg pose makes it hard to tell, although I admire your nonchalant way of doing it. Love the jacket in the second one and the boots look great but hard to see the details.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578275 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 01:41:47 +0000 Peri 1578275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I like the length. I'm not great with proportion but it seems like if they were shorter they would almost be the length of the sweater and I remember reading somewhere that a better proportion is not so equal.&nbsp;</p> <p>Or maybe that's completely wrong! But thanks for posting!!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578264 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 01:28:27 +0000 Anonymous 1578264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks, each so different yet both so you! I love the culottes and agree with Aida on the hem: you don't have to IMO, but you totally could do so without ruining the line. I really like them paired with this sweater. And your AS 98 boots are fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578253 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 01:18:41 +0000 Bonnie 1578253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hemming the culottes sounds like a good idea and I want that military sweater and those boots. I really like both outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578249 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 00:39:41 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1578249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the military sweater! I do think the cullotes would be better a little shorter. Like how you've styled them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578235 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 00:18:38 +0000 Anonymous 1578235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a tough one - I like the culotte length as is, but could also imagine it working a little shorter as well. I'd be tempted to leave them .</p> <p>Those new boots are fantastic - I agree! &nbsp;And I love the military sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578231 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 00:13:03 +0000 Aida 1578231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm good question on the culottes. I think they're fine at this length, more fashiony (longer length tends to work better with heels, funkier with flats). But I also think you'll get better mileage out of them taken up 1-1.5" as you said, and that will keep them a bit further from the snow too. Second outfit is super cool. Rockin your gray and black </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-culottes-and-more#post-1578230 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 00:08:56 +0000 catgirl 1578230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I finally wore the WHBM culottes with this old Heed sweater and suede OTK boots.&nbsp; This outfit got so many compliments at work!&nbsp; I think I need to hem about 1.5 inches.&nbsp; Thoughts?</p> <p>Second outfit is black ponte pants, old Free People military sweater and new A.S. 98 boots, which I LOVE LOVE LOVE.&nbsp; </p> <p>All feedback welcome!</p>
