I think that cutting off at mid-calf makes most people look like they have short stumpy legs, and that seems like a weird thing to volunteer for.

I think it depends on the shoes. With heels, the calf is elongated, and so pants ending there can create the illusion of more calf, and more height.

Gauchos with flats, OTOH, are right out.

Didn't you once think this about the color brown?

I still do, really. The stuff I have in brown is either because I couldn't find it in a proper colour, but the essence was too cool not to own, or something I need so I can wear the aforementioned coolness.

Sometimes I'm keen's bitch.

My brain is still cued to think the ankle's within scant inches of the pants hem. Boots, especially with heels, make the ankle even more indistinct to me.

And on other people, well, I kinda respect free will, but I think that cutting off at mid-calf makes most people look like they have short stumpy legs, and that seems like a weird thing to volunteer for.

True, that.

Now see, I got lots of compliments when I wore mine with my low-top chucks.

OMG, Jesse. Why did you need to do that to me? TO MEEEEEE????!?!?

but if you have job offer, you're probably further ahead than most.

Well, it's not an offer yet. The Director somesuch was on vacation and asked her to call to check. (Which I think is a good sign that there might be an interview.)

Sue, I just found that right before I refreshed. The app for a work permit is online, and I answer no to all the questions, so I guess that's good. Though this probably means I should go ahead and get a passport, since that takes a while, right?

Unexpected question on the app: "In periods of either peace or war, have you ever been involved in the commission of a war crime or crime against humanity, such as: willful killing, torture, attacks upon, enslavement, starvation or other inhumane acts committed against civilians or prisoners of war; or deportation of civilians?" ?!?

Standing in the corner with ita.

I really hope there's an "If yes, please explain:_______" attached to this one.

I had assumed that when you added a heart, you subtracted the existing one.

I do wonder this as well.

what makes them more comfy than regular pants?

They're not fabric fabric - they're a cotton knit and it feels like wearing t-shirt pants, is the best way I can describe it. But, they can also look dressy if worn with strappy heels, which I also have done.

I am also a Capri Whore. Wide legged, taperd, loose, yoga pants, whatever, I love them. I'd rather wear them than anything else.
