I don’t know about you but I’ve been rolling up jeans (and just about all my shirt sleeves) because, well, I really don’t know. I guess it’s just that time in my life where I want everything a bit shorter. Besides, along with the comeback of tapered pants, rolling them up seems like a good way to change the look of any pants you have without having to resort to cutting or buying a new one. I know, rolling pants up seems like the excuse of the broke (or the fabulous, you decide).
I'm all about the cuffed jeans
On that note, I’ve had someone comment on the length of how I roll my jeans up. I’m not sure there is a logic behind it, although I did try explaining. Ultimately it’s just the person wearing it who should be comfortable. Any higher I’d feel like my legs were pudgy. Longer, I’d feel like I’m shorter. To be honest, this length works so well for me mainly because I love where it ends, which is in the middle of my shins. Others think it’s at a weird length but it works or at least I think it works.
Well, what do you think? I know my photo sucks but let’s focus on the jeans, ok? And if you need more fashionable references (I had to scour for this one) you can check out Maya below as featured in Street Peeper cos she mostly resembles whatever semblance of a style I might have and, of course, because she’s sporting cuffed jeans in almost the same length as I usually wear them.
