look up and down
Assess someone visually
To look someone up and down is to visually scan them from head to toe, typically in a single deliberate movement.
This action often signals judgment, sizing someone up, or checking them out with romantic or sexual interest.
The phrase can suggest disapproval or skepticism: She looked me up and down and said nothing.
It may also convey frank appraisal or attraction, depending on context and the looker's expression.
