Thanks to all of you for your feedback on the first pair of Kut Catherines I ordered, which were almost universally deemed too big. I very enthusiastically sized down...and fell in love instantly.
As soon as I put them on I was nearly deafened by the sound of pennies dropping (in my head, if nowhere else). So *this* is what a relaxed skinny is supposed to be like! So *that* is why they feel just as good rolled up as full-lenght! So semi-tucking to showcase the waistband and lengthen the legline, à la Angie's suggestions, really can conceal excess stomach and essentially creates a particularly dramatic high-low hemline! And no wonder the ladies are devoted to their Catherines, because sweet merciful lord are they ever comfortable!

I admit I already road-tested the outfit I'm about to show you, worn with hems rolled and sweater semi-tucked and topped off with my cape (not shown). For the sake of completeness, I'm also showing how it looks with the jeans unrolled and the sweater untucked.

Any and all feedback welcome, including the type that would burst my bubble and knock Catherine off her throne if necessary.
