I'll need to give EF pants a try then! I'm not in the market for black pants but at least there's a brand I can try out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question/page/2#post-1263719 Thu, 29 May 2014 03:01:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1263719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Astrid - I love that you mention I look comfortable in my own skin. That's EXACTLY what I want. Thank you :)</p> <p>Deborah - it's actually in huge part because of your inspiring style that I began to think about and explore this drapey kind of look. So I thank you for that. And I do think you're quite right about how our eyes become accustomed to certain pant lengths and fits that we sometimes forget there are other options.</p> <p>Lyn - I'm finding it a lot of fun to explore this new style.</p> <p>Aida - I'm starting to look for more pieces that can do double duty for work and casual. It maximizes my budget and keeps my physical closet under control. I'm picturing the tank and pants with my Birks for casual wear. I think I would definitely need to roll the pants for flats.</p> <p>Katie - oh I don't just have apple tendencies. That's my primary body shape. And these pants are so fab for my mid section. The waistband hits me in just the right spot and no muffin top at all. Very, very comfy.</p> <p>Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I appreciate that you are all so supportive of me trying this new style direction. I'm having a blast! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question/page/2#post-1263646 Thu, 29 May 2014 01:52:17 +0000 MsLuna 1263646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, WOW! The outfit is so simple but the details! It's amazing! First off, the top: what catches my attention is the hemline. I like how it curves upwards on one side! Such an interesting take on the basic tunic! I've tried EF tunics on at The Bay and they feel like heaven. Now, seeing this on you, you are TOTALLY inspiring me to look into this brand.</p> <p>The pants also fit so well. Wow! From what I remember, you have apple tendencies too, right? Do the pants create a muffin top? Does the waistband dig?</p> <p>The jacket is divine and the proportions are great. Love the pop of watermelon too! </p> <p>So inspiring, Shannon! I'm loving where this new style shift is taking you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question/page/2#post-1263560 Thu, 29 May 2014 00:30:54 +0000 Aida 1263560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well hello there lovely lady! This is fabulous. You look soooo good in that top.&nbsp;With the heels and blazer it looks great for work; if you popped off the blazer and swapped to flats you'd have a super fab weekend kickin' it look. So fun. I don't mind the pant length with the heels, though I'd also be curious to see another roll up for comparison. With flats, it'd definitely need one more up or down. That purse is a serious find, now <i>that</i> is how to leave no retail stone unturned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question/page/2#post-1263530 Thu, 29 May 2014 00:01:27 +0000 lyn* 1263530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the watermelon bag as a punch to your drapey and dreamy pieces. I really like this style direction for you - so elegant! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263489 Wed, 28 May 2014 23:27:51 +0000 Deborah 1263489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do I think!!!! I think that outfit should be in my closet:)</p> <p>Love this so much. Beautiful proportions and I am good on the pant length.&nbsp; I think our eyes are so atuned to a more tapered leg at the moment that it can be hard to see past that.&nbsp; I actually spent some time on line the other night looking specifically at pant length and width at the bottom and I&nbsp;think these are more than fine.&nbsp; It's just another way / style of wearing pants.&nbsp; And you know the best bit Shannon??? I have the pieces to copy you *glee*, I just need to winterize it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263441 Wed, 28 May 2014 22:13:41 +0000 Caro in Oz 1263441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this, the asymmetry of the top, the bag, the sandals - all fab imo.&nbsp;I bow to the others on pants length </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263427 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:47:14 +0000 Thistle 1263427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous!&nbsp; Love the EF pieces, and the watermelon heandbag seals it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263381 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:01:27 +0000 Astrid 1263381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! You look fantastic - and comfortable in your skin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263353 Wed, 28 May 2014 20:12:19 +0000 Robidi 1263353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this outfit...especially to gorgeous tank! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263211 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:57:46 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1263211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all - I'll try rolling the pants when I get home from work and seeing about the length, and also if rolling will make them a wee bit more tapered.</p> <p>Shevia &amp; Suz - I just bought this purse the other day from the hospital gift shop, of all places! Loved the bright cheery color paired with the simple shape. Not real leather but a fun piece for the summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263194 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:42:33 +0000 kkards 1263194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the tank, and i agree with you regarding how it layers with the blazer.<br />i like the pants as is, but would be interested in seeing them rolled slightly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263182 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:32:39 +0000 unfrumped 1263182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely pieces and total outfit.<br />i agree with trying a hem roll--that may also give effect of more taper.<br />(This from Queen Stubborn, who sometimes does not achieve PPL's herself).</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263172 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:23:44 +0000 CocoLion 1263172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good to me, great actually. The pants look ok but I'd prefer them slightly more tapered. However that's a very minor concern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263168 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:18:22 +0000 Mona 1263168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This new bag is delicious with all kinds of outfits. So glad you have found a brand that you like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263137 Wed, 28 May 2014 15:42:29 +0000 Elizabeth P 1263137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love this Shannon.&nbsp; That tank is wonderful, great find!&nbsp; Love the pop of unusual colour from the purse.&nbsp; I agree with other posters that I'd like to see the pants one roll shorter, for comparison.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263111 Wed, 28 May 2014 14:48:59 +0000 texstyle 1263111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a really fun outfit to see on you - and you look great in it. I really like the hemline of the top, the drape of it, the pants (and yes, do try rolling once just to see) and that bag!&nbsp; I also noticed the shoes as they are right in line with the style of shoe I would like to find - comfortable but current and stylish. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263104 Wed, 28 May 2014 14:41:55 +0000 Suz 1263104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely pieces (and great bag -- like Shevia I am wondering if I have seen it yet?) -- and I love the whole outfit. I echo Beth Ann's advice re the length. Give it a try with a roll and compare.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263095 Wed, 28 May 2014 14:25:27 +0000 Beth Ann 1263095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the layering of top and jacket, Shannon!&nbsp; Very chic!</p> <p>As for the pants, I think we're used to seeing this length with the full-on ankle straps like the Okala.&nbsp; Your shoes are high vamp (and I love them), but there is a bigger gap between shoe and hem.&nbsp;&nbsp; You could try rolling under one hem length and snap a pic to see if that proportion suits you better.&nbsp; I wish I had a better eye for this!</p> <p>What fun color in the bag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263075 Wed, 28 May 2014 14:00:19 +0000 Glory 1263075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon - completely love this look and agree that the top can work with so many things. I cannot at all comment on the pant length - they look good to my eye but I hope that Angie will chime in and give her excellent opinion.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263064 Wed, 28 May 2014 13:40:03 +0000 BethL 1263064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love seeing you in your EF pieces, Shannon. I've been trying out a few myself. The tank and crops work great with your jacket, and you look super. The color of the tank plays off your hair so well. I think the crops are fine the length they are, but, like Janet, I wouldn't mind seeing what they looked like just a tad bit shorter. Your bag is the perfect accent - I adore that color! - and your shoes are perfect. Fab all around! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263063 Wed, 28 May 2014 13:39:03 +0000 Neel 1263063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love you new top. Its such a versatile and arty piece. I like the pant length as is. But again I love ankle pants of all types and of all lengths! So take it FWIW. You look lovely and ready to rock </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263061 Wed, 28 May 2014 13:35:43 +0000 Missey 1263061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look divine!&nbsp; I like the pants length, but a titch shorter would work too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263054 Wed, 28 May 2014 13:22:42 +0000 Niki Lea 1263054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really nice! Those shoes are fantastic! I love the punchy colour of the bag, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263052 Wed, 28 May 2014 13:20:47 +0000 Mo 1263052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great top! &nbsp;I' am not sure on the pants. &nbsp;Echoing Janet that seeing them just a little shorter to compare would help. &nbsp;Nice, streamlined look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263040 Wed, 28 May 2014 13:04:48 +0000 JamC 1263040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look with the jacket! &nbsp;The hem of the tank adds so much interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263023 Wed, 28 May 2014 12:33:33 +0000 Janet 1263023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, and I love the accent of the bag. </p> <p>I would love to see what the pants look like with just one roll up, to compare. These look good as they are, but even before I read your whole post, I did think I'd like to see what they look like just a bit shorter, at least for comparison. Keep in mind that I have a slight bias against longer crops because so many pants look "just barely cropped" on me because they're just plain too short. So I always want crop lengths to look wholly intentional. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-ef-a-length-question#post-1263021 Wed, 28 May 2014 12:33:07 +0000 lyn67 1263021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good to see you Shannon, I've missed your posts:-). Love the length of the pants as it is(with those shoes), the new tank AND watermelon bag&nbsp; are simply &nbsp;gorgeous!!! Welcome back!:-) </p>
