This Wear This Not That video goes into great detail on what to wear with crop wide leg pants. Whatever you can wear with these pants you can also wear with crop wide leg jeans. I will show you lots of shoes that pair very well with them and lots of tops and layering options. This is an all seasons video so you will find summer outfit options along with spring and fall options.
The pants I chose for this video are from Old Navy and I decided to show you two different length options so you can decide which on suits your own personal style preference and also you height. The brown pair are a petite and the tan pair are just regular. They fit true to size. The tan pair is a little bit big on me because it's a small and I needed and xs but they were sold out at the time. They are also linen and perfect for this time of year if you are moving into summertime heat.

This video is my jam. Linen pants are my summer uniform. I don't do shorts and I live in Arizona so I live in linen pants. I've now have more than 10 pairs in all neutral colors and in super long, ankle length and crop length. I love them all. My favs right now are the old navy lettuce edge waist crops. I have all the colors. I wore that same off shoulders old navy top and the crop pants out to dinner last week. I got so many compliments.

Oh I love this so much! Every one of your outfits looked top notch. I'm a wide leg fan and I have two pairs of cropped ones. I see what you're talking about with proportions and how crucial they are. Believe it or not I was just trying to make outfits with them this morning. I really struggled, so I resorted to a dress instead for a special luncheon I'm attending. I love your ankle boot with it and the blue denim. It's too hot here in the summer to wear jackets or Blazers so, I bought a few button-down blouses in different shades and am having fun tying them at the waist. I love that idea so much, and you can tie the sleeves around your neck or purse handles when it gets hot mid day.

Thank you Jamie - a practical guide to wide leg crops, which look amazing on you. Thinking I may even be able to make an ankle length version work for me, probably with some elevation in the heel, paired with a fitted jacket. The rule of thirds is key I guess. I love the colour of the shorter pair - brown is my "black" and I've just found my perfect "white" utility jacket, which is ecru, which would look fab with brown. You highlighted a great point about a belt. I struggle with belts which, when done well, certainly elevate an outfit. I'd love to see a video about belts, what works and what doesn't. I'm an hourglass and feel my rectangular friends fare better in the belt department, in that they have more "real estate" to play with. So far, have narrowed down to a medium width version looking more in proportion for me, and in a low contrast colour so as to not dissect a small frame. Your expertise would be most welcome. Thank you for all you share with us Jamie. I love your videos and your style.

I loved this video! A tip that I learned about the length of cropped pants is the rule of the triangle. Stand in front of a mirror with your legs touching. Place the right foot at about 2:00 and the left foot at 10:00. You should notice a triangle around mid calf to the ankle. The length of your pants should end anywhere within the triangle. Mid triangle is considered by some to be the most eye appealing length, but I believe it is a personal preference. I hope this helps!

This is great👏 I am the same height and a cello shape, I am slightly bigger on my bottom half but not too dissimilar to you. I love wide leg cropped linen trousers and keep looking for flat front, high waist, side zip versions but they are elusive. I do like the longer trousers as they elongate the leg but would never wear a long blazer, only ever a shorter version with a nipped in waist, again not easy to find when the fashion is oversized atm. Loved your tips, definitely trying them out!

This was a well-coordinated (excuse the pun) style guide on styling cropped pants with outfits that can take most of us into spring/summer as well as early fall! I am a capsule wardrobe girl who sews most of her own clothes, and I can easily translate your guide into a “sew the looks” with the patterns I already own. I would even duplicate fabrics (who doesn’t love a good quality linen?) Looking forward to watching future episodes! ❤️

And a tip for the combination at 14:00. At the front it is really nice, but you wear a to-be-tucked button up. Get one with a straight back hem instead if you don't tuck. Then you can see how well the butt wedge continues into the A-line of the legs.

The longer crop pant is a better choice for for short, square body types.

I actually put a lot of outfits together, not just for my shape, but different for ideas for everyone and some of these I don't think were great on me but would have been great for someone else.

Nice video! I think you could go down a size on a lot of these items and they could look better. Just my opinion.😁

I thought the utility jacket looked okay with the brown pants although a waist length one would be better. It did look nice with the longer pants too. I personally prefer a jacket that nips in a bit at the waist. My problem at the moment is that my waist has increased with age ,so tucking in tops always feels as though I’ll look bigger, although I’m slim but it’s all settled in that area. Are there any tips you have?

If it's hard for you to tuck than I wouldn't tuck your tops and try to find tops that are a good length and fit your proportions well. Layering with a jacket that nips at the waist is a perfect solution and if you can find faux wrap tops or structured tops that do the same that would be perfect! If you are gaining in your waist try to cinch at the smallest part of your waist which might be higher or lower than your natural waist.

Q&A do you agree with the saying that "beauty knows no pain". I'm trying to teach my young teen daughters to put effort into self-care and their appearance including fashion, skin care, and makeup. They're enjoying it and very interested and learning. I feel though that it's a delicate balance because I've been seeing in them both internal and external pressure to look a certain way, and it's hard to know what's healthy and unhealthy thinking. One of my daughters is willing to wear very uncomfortable shoes and wants to go on a diet! My other puts an extra amount of time into her hair and makeup. I just see how it can be confusing for them, because our culture puts so much attention on appearance, and yet if we don't, then we look like we don't care.

I think dressing appropriately and enjoying fashion can be done sensibly without losing comfort. It's important for women to model behaviour for their children, and I try and emphasize to my girls that one can be nicely dressed, fashionable, care about sustainability and be comfortable all at the same time. Positive body image can be gained from regular exercise and eating healthy without dieting. It's all in the balance, Just my humble 2 cents.

Everytime I go to tie my button up shirts the bow sits vertically not horizontally if that makes sense. Any tips for tying these shirts to get the bow straight? I don't know what I'm doing wrong...

Q&A. I am a 5’3” rectangle shape. I bought some wide leg jeans that are way too long so I will be hemming them. I am wondering the ideal length. Would it be right above the ankle like your natural colored pair?

@YourGuideToStyle Жыл бұрын

Only if you want them to be cropped. If they are meant to be full length then they should be longer. Wear a pair of shoes that you will wear with them when you get them hemmed and if full length you want them an inch or so (maybe more maybe less) from the ground, just not dragging the ground and not too much slouch in the front. For cropped see how they look a couple of inches or more above the ankle. You want them to land below the largest part of your calf for a more flattering look. It is going to be different for everyone depending on personal preference. Too short and they look like capri pants which you don't want and too long they just look like your pants are too short.

If the urility jacket cinches or fitted ( but not tight or fit close to uour body ) a little at the waist, it would look great with all your outfit. Great combo outfits.

I have a problem with collars. I have basically no neck so collars make tops look like me head is on top of my shoulders with no neck.

@YourGuideToStyle 2 жыл бұрын

I would stay away from collars than. I bet open necklines will look the best on you as well. You may be able to do the banded or stand collars that are small and don't cover you neck, just the collar bones.

I wanted to order those pants but they seem to be continually sold out in petite . Also, the measurements they list are a much longer than what you have here. I think 26" for petite and 28" regular. Now I'm more confused 😄

@YourGuideToStyle 2 жыл бұрын

Keep checking and they will probably come back. It did say that on the website for one of the pants that I ordered and it was wrong. They are all a 24 inch inseam for the petite and 26 for the regular.

@YourGuideToStyle 2 жыл бұрын

Maybe try slimmer legs like a straight leg. I feel like the wider the leg the skinner your leg will look. This is a little touch because I don't know your shape but definitely try that if it would work for you.

They are all lovely outfits. But for me, a 4ft 11” very round apple shape (size 18) and a wide bum, big tummy and big bust, belts and tucking in tops just won’t do for me. But I love my cropped trousers.

If you tuck, make sure you get proper waistband pants. Those with stretch bands or built-in ties look awful when exposed under a tuck. As if it is pyama's.
