I also thought you were wearing a blazer, till I saw your comment down-thread. I like this yellow shade on you, and the proportions of the whole outfit look so good. <br /></div><div>I've been experimenting with wearing tights and long underwear under pants, too, because on some recent days, knee-high trouser socks just weren't warm enough. </div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2005140 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 23:54:16 +0000 whidbeygirl 2005140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous....love the socks! No, really it all works so well together and looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2005138 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 23:50:49 +0000 DonnaF 2005138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, folks! The oxfords are a little dressy for the fabric (which is admittedly hard to see), but I'll just say it's juxtaposition!</p> <p>Katerina: I hacked this and another sweatshirt -- both extremely old and cheap ones. This yellow one is probably all cotton, and the other one is probably a blend. Neither one ravels, but you have to be okay with the look of a raw edge. Also, the thread at the seams can unravel a bit. Oh, and I removed the pocket and hacked the bottom of a newer (15 yr. old) sweatshirt to make it cropped. Also, no problems. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004992 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 17:29:35 +0000 JAileen 2004992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cool outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004968 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 16:27:15 +0000 gwenphil 2004968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing outfit! Very strong look, which is not something I usually associate with wide, cropped pants! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004943 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 15:52:55 +0000 Suz 2004943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Donna,</b> this looks amazing on you! Love the shoes and the "socks" and as for the sweatshirt/jacket -- what a BRILLIANT idea. It looks fantastic and must be really cozy and comfy. So, so clever.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's amazing the pants don't stick to the tights -- that is the best. Like wearing pajamas to work.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004902 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 14:03:59 +0000 RobinF 2004902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this outfit! The shoes are amazing and love the way you fixed the sweatshirt! Makes me want to run out to Goodwill this weekend... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004896 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 13:49:53 +0000 kellygirl 2004896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SO cute. I love what you did with the sweatshirt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004879 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 12:20:55 +0000 Cee 2004879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004873 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 12:01:42 +0000 Sonce 2004873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brilliant! I too run very cold. Love your solution of tights under crops. Bonus to show off a fun pattern as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004728 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 21:41:05 +0000 Katerina 2004728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Donna, that is just brilliant (the jacket, I mean).... I can’t see the picture so well - what did you do with the edges? Are they hemmed? Is it difficult? This is just such a fabulous idea, I think some of my DH’s sweatshirts are in danger right now (I haven’t got any myself :-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004615 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 18:05:38 +0000 viva 2004615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the look with the socks! It’s a constant challenge for me, who loves cropped pants, to deal with winter weather. You look terrific here (and I need some new socks). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004483 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 10:12:35 +0000 Style Fan 2004483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is gorgeous!&nbsp; I love it.&nbsp; What a great idea to make your own jacket.&nbsp; I love the cropped jacket with the wide legged pants.&nbsp; I wore my wide legged pants in NYC with wool knee high socks and tights (it was colder than NorCal) and I was okay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004447 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 03:13:55 +0000 DonnaF 2004447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the love!</p> <p>Windchime: I live in NorCal, so winter means it is in the 50s. We keep our thermostat set at 59 degrees, but sometimes turn it up to 62 or even 64 if it is damp outside -- so our house is cooler than a lot of folks keep theirs in colder climates. I'm wearing HeatTech under my (daughter's) mock neck close fitting sweater.&nbsp;</p> <p>Oops, gotta run! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004442 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 02:58:56 +0000 Windchime 2004442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it winter by you? The tights are a brilliant addition to your outfit. I love the yellow, and your fun shiny oxfords! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004441 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 02:53:05 +0000 unfrumped 2004441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everything!<br /> Would like to Cc that in socks or tights. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004438 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 02:40:36 +0000 Aquamarine 2004438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GREAT outfit. Love the socks...good solution! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004437 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 02:26:35 +0000 Kate 2004437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those oxfords!! They steal the show. Love them. Whole outfit is really cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004429 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 01:15:11 +0000 DonnaF 2004429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the endorsement, Angie, Katerina, Nomad, mtnsofthemoon, jussie, kkards, and alicewonderland. These are bagging out a little at the knees due to the knit fabric. I think I need to adopt the manly habit of pulling these up a bit at the knees when I sit down.</p> <p>Nomad: I own these oxfords thanks to you! I also tried *your* leopard ones but they don't go as well with my coloring; my ideal would be zebra, snow leopard, or dalmatian.&nbsp;</p> <p>mtnsofthemoon: Yellow blazer? This is an old pullover sweatshirt that I hacked. Cut down the middle, cut off the cuffs and then some, and kept trimming around the neck until I liked it.</p> <p>As to these tights: I'm probably the only person you *know* who has TWO different pairs of GRAY leopard patterned tights. That tend to bag a bit at the knees because I like to size up for comfort. And hooray, these pants cover up the bagginess, and a little looseness at the ankles doesn't look overly dreadful if one thinks they are socks.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004416 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 01:01:46 +0000 Jaime 2004416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic! Interesting point about flat pointy shoes - this may be why the point doesn't bother me - I rarely wear anything but flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004409 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 00:40:46 +0000 bridgie 2004409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So cute.&nbsp; Love it all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004408 Thu, 21 Feb 2019 00:34:21 +0000 Alicewonderland 2004408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I gotta try this! Thanks for the idea, you look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004398 Wed, 20 Feb 2019 23:51:22 +0000 Angie 2004398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004397 Wed, 20 Feb 2019 23:48:03 +0000 Nomad 2004397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those shoes on you! (I've only given my leopard pair one outing so far, but they're surprisingly comfortable for being so pointy, aren't they?) They look great with the tights, too. Stylish and practical way to battle the chill. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004394 Wed, 20 Feb 2019 23:34:18 +0000 kkards 2004394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG the shoes are fab...and the socks!

Very funky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004370 Wed, 20 Feb 2019 22:15:05 +0000 mtnsofthemoon 2004370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this ensemble; from the socks to the shoes and that Yellow Blazer!&nbsp; Glad you found a "hack" to keep your legs warm and enjoy the trousers in the winter.&nbsp; Really love the outfit on you!&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004348 Wed, 20 Feb 2019 21:29:44 +0000 Katerina 2004348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW! This outfit is stunning. Love everything about it, all the fabulous pieces and how you put them together. The oxfords are great paired with the patterned tights! I must copy that..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wide-leg-crops-wflats#post-2004343 Wed, 20 Feb 2019 21:19:01 +0000 DonnaF 2004343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I get cold, very cold. I almost never have bare legs. Even sheer socks leave me more chilly than I prefer. I thought I would see if tights work under these wide legs or if they would stick too much. Miracle of miracles they work! Now my major concern is whether this sweater knit will sag and bag by the end of the day.</p> <p>And for those of you who think you can’t wear pointy toed shoes: Keep trying flats/near flats since they lack gravity pushing your toes forward. </p>
