Boden cropped trousers- advice please.

[veryembarrassedmummy]

Just had delivered the cropped slim legs and slim leg jeans- both are longish on me as I am a 28-29 leg- they look longer on than I expected. Haven't measured the trousers yet mind you.

Wondering whether to exhange the jeans for thelonger length so they will be a "normal length" - would you wear cropped jeans that just skim the ankle- I think they are in danger of looking like jeans that are really too short.
Don't want to take them up- though could shorten the other ones.

I think it depends on the cut of the trouser. If they are straight leg I think they can look quite chic (think Audrey Hepburn) but if they are even remotely tapered they will look more WI member!

Do you have a link to the ones you bought?

I got these in the long and on me they are proper full-length trousers which is what I wanted as I am very short-legged and find even petite or normal short length trousers too long. If you intend wearing them with sandals or flats (and no socks!) they'll look fine.

Agree with mejon. Wear with flats and they will be lovely. Heels will not work - except perhaps the lowest kitten heel.
