Hello everyone! I'm so sorry I haven't had a spare second to post anything new in the past few months! School and life just kind of crept up on me and I just got super busy. So while I have a spare second before I start studying for finals like a crazy person, let's talk about fashion :) So these days, it seems like lots of girls are rocking the oversized t-shirts with leggings look. Is this in or out? Yoga chic or a lazy mess? I personally find it weird if a person wears leggings as pants… They are quite tight. I would feel self conscious with just wearing those. And I also personally like to look like I am actually wearing pants, so this trend isn’t quite my deal. So from my point of view, this look needs to go! Bury the 80′s oversized and super-tight clothing, let’s get something new and fresh going! Picture time ;)
Lol, this is true. So leggings are really tight, it is almost like you are wearing no pants at all. You basically have a tiny little layer of neoprene or whatever fiber they are made out of between you and the rest of the world... So therefore, when wearing said tight article of clothing, it is possible that a passerby would be able to see certain undergarments or certain nooks, crannies, or flaws of the skin. So if you must wear leggings as pants, PLEASE buy the proper size. And make them opaque please? We wouldn't want any sausages stuffed in casings walking around campus, now would we? Another picture ;)
Yay! This chart is awesome! It makes me giggle. Please read it ;) alright, real life example time.
Olivia Wilde... What were you thinking? Camel toe... Unattractive! This means they are too tight! and heads up, maybe you wouldn't be so cold if you actually had pants on.
Jennifer Love Hewett... lol wow. So you can clearly see like every nook and crevice of her bum... something i didn't really want to see. Too tight and they are clearly see through. She is clearly not wearing any underwear- that's just awkward.
How to wear leggings properly:
- BUY THE RIGHT SIZE THAT FITS YOUR BODY. You want to look good, yes? Then don't pay attention to the size on the package. Just be concerned with if they fit or not.
- BUY OPAQUE LEGGINGS IF YOU PLAN TO WEAR THEM AS PANTS. Please, do the world a favor. We don't want to see all your business hanging out.
- WEAR THEM UNDER THINGS, NOT AS PANTS. Leggings were created to go under dresses and long tops. Yes, some people like them for yoga, lazy sundays and rolling-out-of-bed-straight-into-class days, and to those people I say see numbers 1 and 2: they're important ;)
Proper legging-wearing picture time
This picture rocks. I love all of these looks. now you don't have to just wear boots with leggings, you can pair them with anything really. And why does my font keep changing?? *sigh technology.
Oh yes! I am loving these looks. Great ways to wear them around spring time, by pairing them with long tank tops. The key here is whatever you pair the leggings with, be sure they cover your derriere. You can wear however sheer and lacy and holey tights you want, just please cover your bum with the top!
That is all i can think of to say about leggings as pants. Just be cautious, friends! Being fashion forward is good, but if you are showing body parts that shouldn't be seen, then well, that isn't being fashion forward anymore- that's public indecency lol. So I will try to post regularly again, I promise! Maybe the next topic will be menswear ;) Vivre la mode, tout le monde!
