And I assure you that it's the cut, not your hips, which are very lovely and that you should not be afraid to flaunt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart/page/2#post-1235798 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 18:42:25 +0000 rachylou 1235798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 'em! </p> <p>I call this style "golf pants"... 'cuz everybody wants to know what I call stuff </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart/page/2#post-1235620 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 14:36:28 +0000 Beth Ann 1235620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous Viva, I visited your post twice, trying to decide if I like the crops or not.&nbsp; Hmmm.&nbsp; You know when your eye expects one thing and sees another?&nbsp; I'm left basically undecided about the silhouette, but I wanted to say that if I saw you in the mall, I would know that you had carefully chosen the silhouette, and I would have thought you looked great --- playing with fashion well, not being a fashion victim, if that makes sense. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart/page/2#post-1235515 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 12:19:52 +0000 viva 1235515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the great feedback everyone and for the shoe love. I bought these during a visit to Seattle to see a college roommate. We both bought them and I love them (although they were not a great choice for mall shopping yesterday, to be honest).</p> <p>Angie: I'm so excited to hear that I looked fashion-forward (that <i>never</i> happens) and also that these will be trending in the fall. So they will have more longevity than I thought.</p> <p>Krishnidoux: I hear you that these are not as flattering in the hip and butt areas. Not my strongest regions, to tell the truth: straight and blocky. </p> <p>AndiB, KKards, Kat: I'll be interested in your reaction to the slimmer<br /> JCrew cropped jeans that I have coming. I tried them in the store<br /> yesterday and I love them. They are much slimmer and conventionally<br /> flattering but have the same longer cropped length. For those of us who are pro-longer I think they're great.</p> <p>Jackie: I LOVE the Marty McFly reference. I have a not-so-secret love for geek fashion (I definitely have this gene in my tomboy style).</p> <p>Aquamarine: These do have a flare at the bottom, which is what makes them really different (and different from those you posted, Anna). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart/page/2#post-1235504 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 11:55:42 +0000 Caro 1235504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uh oh, I think I feel some inspiration coming on! I see what you mean about the length... I actually have a pair like that that I never wear even though I love them! Somehow you have made this length look cute because of those shoes. I think it may be working as well now that the cuts of jeans are all over the place right now. At any rate, they look cute for spring, and I think I may even dare to do the same...if I can find the right shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart/page/2#post-1235490 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 11:38:45 +0000 krishnidoux 1235490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the shoes. And the shirt.&nbsp;And the idea. But may I voice dissent... I don't think these jeans are the best... it has&nbsp;to do with something&nbsp;around the hips and derrière... can't tell what...&nbsp;I am convinced that you can find a same length pair that better compliments your lovely silhouette.<br />(Now I go hide!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235367 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 04:27:27 +0000 Golden 1235367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the length and I think they look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235299 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 02:22:15 +0000 Jaime 1235299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am also drawn to this style and think you have styled them brilliantly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235216 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 23:35:57 +0000 Catnip 1235216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the way these look on you!&nbsp; Also love the shoes.&nbsp; I'm not&nbsp;as interested in being trendy as others on this forum are, and I say wear what you like that makes you feel good!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235211 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 23:30:20 +0000 Diana 1235211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not the biggest fan of this style pants normally but I really like them on you! &nbsp;I think the heels are key. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235207 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 23:27:49 +0000 annagybe 1235207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They remind me of these</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://totokaelo.com/chimala/ankle-cut/used-medium/LN7889">http://totokaelo.com/chimala/a.....ium/LN7889</a> </p> <p></p> <p>And this</p> <p></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/368661919469749166/">http://www.pinterest.com/pin/368661919469749166/</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235196 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 23:19:09 +0000 Kristin L 1235196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look great!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235178 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 22:36:14 +0000 CocoLion 1235178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Although I haven't felt drawn to this look, now I'm curious to try.

I love the raw edge hem on these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235123 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 21:08:28 +0000 Gigi 1235123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am one who doesn't care for the cropped-plus-wide-hems look, but I am not one who listens to the fashion police either, in various areas of my style. I think what is key here is that the rest of the outfit is very sharp and polished, and you have the confidence to pull it off. So...making the cropped pants look intentional (as you have done) is paramount. Great job, Viva! And kudos to you for following your own sense of fashion even when it means you are following the beat of a different drummer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235114 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 20:50:47 +0000 columbine(erin) 1235114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these for you, especially with those shoes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235110 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 20:46:42 +0000 Niefern 1235110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this outfit, especially pants and shoes.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1235084 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 20:09:48 +0000 jackiec 1235084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it!

They look like they have a slight flare at the bottom? This shape always suited my IT frame and I am excited they may be coming back.

I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1234935 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 17:15:45 +0000 Neel 1234935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no clue what you are talking about!

The heels definitely give the look intention, which I think is key to pulling off something a little less conventional. Looks great to me!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1234904 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 16:54:12 +0000 Kat 1234904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Honestly, I have to say I like the length and personally, I don't care for the look of a shorter cropped pant. &nbsp;I think you look lovely, and the shoes are wow, and most of all you look happy. &nbsp;Not everything in life and in style is about lengthening your legs. &nbsp;:) &nbsp;This length is my preferred one, too, and I wear crops all spring with a moderate heel I can bound up stairs in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-warning-not-for-faint-of-heart#post-1234898 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 16:48:37 +0000 Vildy 1234898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Attitude is everything and you clearly have enough poise to wear whatever you think is cute. I'm completely neutral about this pants silhouette but you <i>make</i> <br />them cute! </p>
