Need opinion on cardigan length

[fashion16]

I really want a long cardigan but there are so many lengths out there. I want to get one that looks current. Some of them that are on the longer side remind me of those "dusters" that teenage girls wore <Ick> in 1999/2000. What in your opinion is a more stylish/current length? (I am looking for something fashionable that I can wear with skinny jeans and knee high black stiletto boots.)

Longer (hits slightly above knee) --

OR shorter (hits at the hip)

I'd go with the first one, for the look that you are going for.

I like to layer cardi's with jeans. Actually #2 might suit your outfit better. You can easily slide a jacket or coat over this along with a scarf.

IMHO, #1 would go well with a skirt and stilettos (in place of a blazer)

i like the second one much better. the first one is way too long, definitely reminds me of those "dusters" you're talking about.

I agree - go with #1

I prefer the shorter one, I think the boots and skinny jeans would look good with this look

I like #2. I think the first one looks like a duster and is too long to be professional looking.

I like them both I think either could easily go with the look you are going for. Sorry, I know I'm not much help!

I like both but I prefer the second one.

Both are absolutely wearable and stylish.

I have been on a cardigan buying frenzy lately and I find the one I wear the most often is the longest one. I have bought almost all of them from urban outfitters. They have some rockin cardigans!

Everyone brings up such good points. I think I am going to buy one of each!

the first one looks like something you would wear at home. Second one is much more refined
