I have some black ones from Gap but I never quite know what top/shoes to wear with them.

brimfull · 09/07/2009 19:55

have you got long legs?

myredcardigan · 09/07/2009 19:58

I don't think they're at all flattering unless you're a size 10. Nothing that tapers in at the ankle is.

Simples · 09/07/2009 19:59

i am not a size 10 but have slim long legs

they look good

mrsmaidamess · 09/07/2009 20:09

I am a tall 14 with long legs. And high heels.

I am short but my legs are long compared to the rest of me. And mine are narrow all the way down, so don't really taper in.

I think I need something that sort of glides over my bottom and some heels with them.

mrsmaidamess · 09/07/2009 20:14

One of those swing tee shirts that are around? Mine are quite voluminous at the top so things look better tucked in

Mmmm - more fitted needed I think as have norks and they tend to 'swing from the norks' which isn't necessarily a look I'd want to go for!

tattycoram · 09/07/2009 23:22

I'm looking for some of those but am miles from a matalan
