What is your view on wearing leggings? Where would you wear them?

I know this is a silly thing to debate, but I thought it would be fun.

Hmmmmmmmmm I wear them under jeans when it's cold.

Otherwise it makes me feel like an 8th or 9th grader :lol

OMG it's Andrea!

I said maybe. If I had nice enough legs to wear that tight of clothing, I would so wear them. I think some people look way cute in them.

I think that sometimes they can look REALLY cute under a tunic-like top, otherwise, I say no go, I know that *I* personally do not look good in them! :teehee

Ohhh gosh. I think Leggings under dresses are cute..mostly black ones.

I thought we were talking about blue/grey leggings under a jean mini skirt :rofl

I love leggings under dresses! Especially tunic style ones. But I agree, they have to be black and maybe brown. The really colorful ones look trashy to me.

I like the mid calf length for under shorter tunic dresses... and like you chicas... in just neutral colors (black, brown, creme.... I prefer black)

I think they can be really cute :D

I wear them under dresses that are a little too short for comfort or loooong tops... I also wore them under EVERYthing when I was preggo, just for the support. :D

OMG it's Andrea!

I just decided I want some black ones. Black is slimming right? So my thunder thighs won't be too terrible.

I think the main reason I'm scared of leggings is because of my thighs... I dont wanna look like cottage cheese.

That is something a little kid or maybe a teen would wear. I think they date you and make you look older then you really are. Kinda like trying to recapture your childhood.

:lmao And I want a thrift store hat and a friend named Six to go with them!

But no, I don't do leggings, not even if I was Kate Moss skinny.

They definitely aren't for me. If I tried to wear leggings it would like big sausages being shoved in a sleeve, just not appealing. . . I think they are adorable on girls with nice legs, but I also have the opinion that anyone that is considerably overweight loses the privilege to wear spandex or leggings.


Disclaimer: I am not bashing fat people, I am a fat woman, and thinks it's ridiculous for fat people in general to cram themselves into clothes that are not appropiate.

I like the way they look on other people but have been too scared to buy them. Even though I am in my last year of 20's I feel like I would look silly. Almost like I'm trying not to "grow" up. :dunno Just how I think people would see me.

No thank you.

Anyone remember the show "Daria?" There was an episode where the preppy girls went to a restaurant and saw a bunch of old waitresses in leggings and the young girl was also wearing them. She started freaking out cause she was wearing the same nasty things.

"I'm wearing spandex!" :freakout
her friend was like "No. They are leggings! It's ok!"

Yep I wear black or brown ones under long tanks with a belt or a dress that is a wee too short

Not just no, but a big hell no. I think it's VERY rare to see a girl who can really pull them off, and they just make me think of the early 90210 days when I was like 15.

Yes, of course - the once a year I wear a dress I try to wear nylons. :lol Mainly because it's disgusting to go without.
