Fashion help again

Postby LilMrsAverage » Fri Jul 13, 2012 4:49 pm

Right I am not the biggest leggings fan - but I know some of my tunic type short dresses are too short really for me to be happy going without something..

Sooooo.... how dodgy is it to wear knee length leggings..... was thinking f I could get something with a wedge of lace at the bottom ( if you know what I mean) or is that a huge :nono:

Is this the sort of look you are referring to?

Personally, I'm not sure about it - at 5'3" cropped leggings cut my already short legs in half.

:coatdoor: I do it :oops: probably a good reason not to lol! I agree full length would probably make legs look longer. Off to go and buy longer ones...

I don't like the knee length look, but then at my height it's difficult to find true knee length ones anyway. The cropped ones only ever come to just above my ankle anyway! :giggle:

I just think the mid to lower calf length teamed with a tunic and flip flops (or whatever it is you're wanting to wear) is a great look. :D

I'm a massive leggings fan, wear them all the time, have discovered through trial and error that the 3/4 length ones are def not a good look though, I now wear them in the house and never outside (and I'm 5'7")

I think ankle length looks better. Or skinny jeans?

I wear mid calf black leggings with my long floaty type top and I like them! They are probably abit higher than mid calf actually , and I'm the opposite to most of you it seems in that I hate hate ankle length leggings!!
