how do you do the tunic, leggings and knee high boots combo without...

[lucykate]

a. feeling like you've forgotten to put your skirt on

and

b. looking like you should be out horseriding

maybe now i've turned 40, i'm just feeling it's a look not for me anymore

I usually find my pink timberland make me look less like I should be out horse riding

OH NO!

I don't do the legging bit - that helps!
I do jeans with big turn-ups atm. No skinnies. Because, I am not skinny.

surely with wide jeans you lok like a pari fo crtains

Don't do it. Go for just above knee jumper dresses with lovely soft cotton long sleeved top under, very very thick tights and silk shorts over the top of the tights. Yes really. This is my winter look and it looks good but feels better.

I think calf length boots with tunic and leggings looks less 'forgotten me skirt' somehow.

LOLOl at silk shorts

to toboggan in?

Hhaha yes, perfect for tobogganing! Dry in seconds

I don't do tunics and leggings.

For me, the rule is dresses with leggings or tights, tunics with skinny jeans.

silk shorts
can you see them or are they to stop the dress clinging?

Yes, as Fran says, calf length boots help to stop the 'forgot my skirt' feeling.

No you can't see them, think netball shorts, just prettier.

faaamily is right.

I wear it with chunky jewellry or scarves.

If you really feel bare why not get a couple of short skirts in neutral colours to wear over the top of the leggings but under the tunic iyswim?

am still reeling from pink timberlands

pmsl @ pair of curtains
No I don't

long baggy top
and baggy pants

Silk shorts sound lush - is it to stop cling or just for lushness?

Fascinated by concept of silk shorts.

Linky, please.

It's true, pink timberlands, maybe slightly acceptable on a 2 year old.

I still have issues over a Timberland incident with my aunt. She tried to 'gift' me a pair of baby blue ones she'd bought, but surprisingly never worn, and she was actually offended when I refused. 'But they are decent expensive shoes'. Then you wear them.

Oh, french knickers.

Geddit now.

Tunic and leggings a bit Star Trek.

It does both.

like this

I have loads from 'what katie did' but can't see any on the site

tunic HAS to really really properly cover your bum to be worn with leggings... if in any doubt about bum coverage wear skinny jeans instead.

i'm short, so most tunics are more sort of dress length on me, but my arse bum is feeling a bit drafty and, erm underdressed
