I just saw a feature on denim leggings as a new hot trend. What do you think of these?
Forums: Trends/Must-Have Items: Denim Leggings
re: stef42678
I think they would be great on the right body. There are some clothing items that look better on a particular body shape, and I think leggings of any fabric would be one of those items. I, however, will not be wearing leggings of denim or any other kind :)

Mmm...one word, really, sums up my thoughts on this: BOO. As happygirl said, some might look good, but I suspect whoever looked good in those would look good in anything.

I agree, I am not big on this look.

I agree, but it looks like leggings may be a trend for fall.

re: stef42678
Leggings not for me. On a woman with a great body fine. I suspect if leggings will be big for fall there will be a lot of woman wearing who shouldn't. This is where friends tell friends the truth,I know this sounds harsh, but some how I think you would be doing them a kindness?

No leg warmers for me. I live in Chicago and would rather freeze.

Hope you can check out this leather legging? I have to say if money were no object and I was younger with a models body I would buy. Considering I'm 55 and not a model no way,how ever I fear women who can afford Barney's and ignore the mirror will be wearing,not a great sight. Stef, I know you hate leggings but from your pictures you would look fab in!

re: JAYMAN
I've been seeing a lot of leather leggings in magazines! Express ads are featuring them. You're right, they look really good on those girls. I however . . . require a bit more leather in the thigh area and might not look like that! I like leggings, but wear them with long shirts, or short dresses. Denim ones seem uncomfortable, but like I'm one to go for comfort over fashion!?!?

re: stef42678
I didn't mean to not include others on this web site who would look very well in leather leggings. I directed this to Steff since she started the topic.

re: JAYMAN
Thanks for the comments Jayman. I just might have to try leggings.

re: stef42678
I saw some "denim-ish" leggings at Target yesterday. They looked silly on the rack, and I can imagine they would look silly on a person regardless of what she looks like! LOL. I do think leggings are okay on some people, as long as they are styled well and look modern (NOT 80s). I just snatched a pair of black leggings from my mom the other day. I am still not sure I can pull them off, but they were free (and comfy!), so I figure I will try them out and see how it goes! LOL

I think leggings are tough for anyone to wear, but stars wear them with confidence. I am still confused about this whole trend.

You could totally pull off leggings. I can't wait to see at picture.

re: stef42678
when i was 9 my mom bought me "denim" tights- and i used to wear them with a denim overall dress that was trimmed with red plaid and white patent mary janes. is that enough of a bad image to dissuade any of u ladies from wearing denim leggings? please say yes!

re: stef42678
I have to 3rd or 4th that motion... I'll bet it's one of those "AAWWWW how cute" photos that absolutely made you CRINGE as a teenager when your Mom pulled out the photo album to show to your new boyfriend... I can picture it clearly. LOL
Looking back now, you'll probably not mind it as much. : )
