Edit: I got a quick chance to take a couple of pics - sorry the quality is so bad - I used my phone and I'm not used to using it for pics. What do you think of the length of these with flats?

My AE order came in. The burgandy jeans were a no go. I just can't stand the material, it feels too stretchy. I sized up as suggested in those and probably should not have done so.

The cropped straight jeans I decided to try however were kind of a surprise in that I actually liked them. I didn't think I would. I'm pretty slow to adopt a trend. I've tried probably 4 other flared cropped jeans this summer and never felt they were right. This pair feels good when you put them on and is a med dark wash (the Find shows it looking a little more distressed than the pair I got).

I got my usual AE size and they fit perfect. The hem is just clean cut so I guess it will continue to fray.

Now I just have to figure out if I like them with my shoes which are mostly flats for summer - and booties and slip ons for fall winter.

No pics yet as I haven't had a chance to try them on with shoes and evaluate further.
