ankle pants

carrieliz81

Can someone explain to me the obsession with ankle pants lately? As a 5'2" lady with too much junk in the trunk, the footwell, the door pockets, the glove box, and under the hood, it is really just not a flattering look, and I don't think it's that flattering on the 6' model types either! It makes them look short and fat! I just want pants that are pant-length. And yes, I have to shorten those so they are appropriate for my short stature, but yeah. I'm still gonna complain about the ankle pants. Wah.

I like them. Especially with heels.

I like pants that cover more than my ankles, sorry.

I wear them. With heels.

Couple weeks ago:



Yesterday, I'm sitting so they are drawn up a little more than they actually are. (was getting my hair done - that's why I'm wearing a cape):




ETA: The 2nd pair are jeans. I'm 5'7.

I have yet to find any that look good on me. Either I'm too tall so they just look... weird. Or, I have too much thigh and they just look.... weird.

I'm 5' 5 so not very tall myself. If they are the right fit and you wear them with heels they look great. I own a few pairs and like them.

As someone with Loooong legs. I wore ankle pants, before ankle pants were cool!!! I actually don't have a choice.

I'm the same height as you, well endowed in both departments. I have a pair of mint green ones from the Gap. I get compliments all the time when I wear them.

KittieLea

That's a really cute look!
I usually have to wait for trends to be out for awhile before I try them myself though.

I wasn't sure what you were talking about, til I saw the pictures...


I don't wear them - they don't look good on my body type. At. All.

That's always been my issue too.

Good god, he is so HAWT. SWOON.

Just no. :noway:

^^This. Absolutely, no.

As for on women - I'm no sure how I feel. Being 5'11 it reminds me of all those times my mom would buy me pants as an awkward too-tall-teen and tell me that they were "long enough" and no one would notice.
