to think leggings on their own is ridiculous

And still they carry on! "Ok for little girls in the pre 'hip-rounding' stage not for anyone else Yanbu" "It is a really bad look. Always" "well im okay with it if you have the figure go ahead"

my point is any clothes are ok for anyone! if it makes them happy then they can do it! as for people complaining about see through leggings, this was not my original point...it's just common sense to wear clothes that are your size and buy new when they get too old. but still surely seeing someones knickers is still not as offensive or mean as having a go at people for looking a certain way? so, in conclusion this still makes the person who hasn't gotten round to buying new leggings yet the better person.

The end.

Ok for little girls in the pre 'hip-rounding' stage not for anyone else

Zombie Thread

There was a woman today in leggings and a leather jacket.
She looked 'okay' until she bent down them OMG , they were stretched to see through.
I could practically see her knicker label on her pants.

For the love of Jeff ladies. Look in the fecking mirror

They are comfortable,there have been days in this cold wet miserable winter when I really couldnt give a fuck if some nosey cow was offended by my VPL.

Normally I keep leggings for the house and long tops, but my backs been playing me up and I have the hump and don't care!

Yanbu. It is a really bad look. Always.

Typo in my first post, whoops,

*with tops that don't cover my arse.

Haha! Just noticed this is a zombie thread.

shemademegay you revived this zombie thread because you were offended by it.

I am offended by the fact that you use too many exclamation marks >> !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's fucking annoying. Oh, and you don't need to star out your swear words either, we're all adults here, we've all heard the words before.

I wear Jeggings (the ones that look like jeans painted on) with tope that don't cover my arse. I have a nice arse and I look good in them. You can't see the outline of my 'foof'.

They aren't see through so I guess that's what most people find offensive?
I wouldn't want to wear trousers that you could see my underwear through.

I did wear a pair of skin tight, shiny/latex looking leggings with a top that didn't cover my arse to a birthday bash not so long ago, They again were not see through in the slightest, and were very tight. Nothing was wobbling, and no 'foof' was on show.

YANBU to think leggings on their own are ridiculous. You can think whatever the hell you want.

ZOMBIE thread.

I still mourn the discontinuation of M&S leggings.

They were thick enough to completely hide pants. They had a lovely wide waistband. They were very stretchy. They never bagged at the knees, or slid down, or went out of shape even after being washed hundreds of times. I used to ride in mine and they just stayed in place, and in shape.

They were £18 (quite dear considering I'm going back at least 15 years) and they were worth every penny.

And then of course they changed suppliers or whatever and the replacements were nowhere near as good. I've never found any to rival them :(

It is if you're going topless as well. Although I think it's a look DH would like to see more of - in the bedroom.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

well im okay with it if you have the figure go ahead if not please dont wear overtight panties with see through leggings and a crop top then glare at me when i say oh dear lord (unfortunately loudly) i have sleep deprivation some mornings and my mouth works on its own! seriously though we have a lass whose child goes to the same school as mine she wears leggings no panties and a short top fine even after three kids she has a great figure but why does she not wax first? i really didn't want to see her short and curlies (ever) she walked by me in a toddler group leant around me to get to something and practically stuffed herself in my face i turned away and the lady next to me commented that poor child can't afford panties or a razor! we spent ten minutes giggling like school kids!! apparently lack of sleep affects more people than i thought

Not ridiculous it's personal taste doesn't bother me what others wear. , I've just never liked them and never had a pair. I can think of some situations where it would be practical dance lessons, yoga? Long or short top doesn't bother me as long as it's not on my body.

I think I bought one outfit for my girls with leggings and then I regretted it, I just don't like them, can't explain why. they're not tights and they're not trousers they're confused .

Ppl forget some leggings are sheer some opaque. If you get the wrong size and stretch um up they can reveal more than expected. I have seen two mums on school run short top and leggings could see her underwear. I didn't have a heart to tell them, they came across a bit rough, I didn't want any trouble lol.

I remember my sis wearing leggisn with long tshirts and jumpers early 90s looked cool, still didn't temp me to wear it.

To be honest, they look fine if the wearer has a good figure & they are decent quality.

I don't like the bitchy tone of the majority of the posts on this thread.

Leggings are like skinny jeans, it only suits certain body types.

I typed into google 'what to wear with leggings' and this link came up! I've read through and it seems a good percentage of people on here are total fascists on the matter! people can wear/say/act/look/talk however they like!!!! as long as you are not physically or mentally hurting anyone, NOTHING you are doing is wrong! there is nothing wrong with wearing leggings as "pants" (as they say in America land) and it also doesn't matter what size you are! if said person feels comfortable, sexy, warmer, cuter, more confident or for any other reason wearing leggings, it is up to them and no one else! they should in return, not be made to feel bad or disgusting or "cheap" as so many of you lot seem to imply for doing so!!! this has really pi*ed me off, how people can be such bi*hes about a subject that really does have any relevance to them and doesn't (or at least shouldn't) effect their lives in any way, shape or form!

I was wanting to know what to wear with leggings because my girlfriend recently got some as she has gained some confidence to wear them after loosing a bit of weight! she is still a size 14 but would really like to wear them now! she would however like something that covered up her front "parts" and a bit of her bottom (only due to confidence issues, not because it is wrong to not do i may add) so was looking for tops that might be slightly longer at the front than the back. All i found was people bitching about how leggings are not trousers/pants....well, they kind of or totally are!

i'm not a huge fan of dresses with big cut outs in the side but they are still dresses!! and people can wear them if they like...makes no difference to my life at all! I don't really like turned up jeans but they're still jeans! and again...go for it if you like!

sorry to all the people on here who are not slagging people off for the clothes they decide to wear...well done for just being a kind person! also, i notice this is an OLD thread so sorry for resurrecting it but it cropped up on google and i felt something needed to be said!

people...get about your own lives...wear whatever makes you happy...

I don't wear leggings. I do however wear 100 denier tights with black short shorts and a normal length top. It's the best of both worlds - I'm pretty much completely covered up but can still move incredibly freely. The problem reality is that people think I am wearing tights as leggings. Do I care? Not really, no.

And for the starers (of which there are many!), I can assure you that I am wearing shorts and my knickers aren't visible, no matter how hard you crane your necks might also have something to do with my g-string fetish

I've just started to wear them again with dresses and motorbike boots. God but they're comfy.

Worse when I see older women (my age) wear them.

I think it's ok with long jumpers or T-shirts, or short dresses.

I am pregnant and live in my leggings at the minute. Its been since 37 weeks and everything else is so uncomfortable. I look pretty shit and stupid but I so don't care at the minute haha. yanbu!

I used to live in leggings, huge jumpers and Doc Martens when I was late teens and early 20s. I looked really good in them, tbh, and am glad I carped the bloody diem. I can say that now, looking down at the wreck that is my late babies body!

I like seeing young people wearing clothes that celebrate their all-too-fleeting gorgeousness. Let 'em enjoy it while they can!

YANBU- I wear them as tights under skirts or dresses.
I'll wear them alone at home, with a vest top, for exercising or as PJ's but wouldn't dream of heading out on the streets with my arse andoften lack of knickers on show.

Maybe this www.smoothgroovecommunity.com should be sold next to the leggings in shops :)
