cable knit leggings

[MaureenCognito]

i love them but YIKES I just saw a woman wearing some with just thin hip length sweater.

they are not trousers guys

How would you wear them though? Just with a long top? I imagine they're not terribly forgiving on anything less than great legs which of course I know you have.

i dont think I could wear them. i LOVE the look of them, think they are for teens with tiny teeny skirt things and dm boots , would look ace

there is a slight hint of varicose veins with the lumps in the knit isnt there

I had some last year, wore once with long, arse covering jumper.
Didn't like them, they made my legs look lumpen.

was goign to say with a long lumberjack shirt when I chanced upon thiwww.google.co.uk/imgres?um=1&hl=en&safe=off&sa=N&biw=1309&bih=649&tbm=isch&tbnid=xThg_MhdszrfoM:&imgrefurl=www.daisybutter.com/2012/03/right-here-hoping.html&docid=kGSUk7HUAuK2wM&imgurl=farm8.staticflickr.com/7192/6833652934_369d96a61b_o.png&w=650&h=487&ei=pIOOUMWyJ9OS0QW55YDADQ&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=260&sig=108109824292291192680&page=3&tbnh=131&tbnw=170&start=59&ndsp=32&ved=1t:429,r:63,s:20,i:322&tx=23&ty=96

they are more for children, i think. to be worn like footless tights. dd1 has some, shes 6 and half and wears with clumpy boots and denim or cord skirt with checked shirt.

I agree you have to be young and very slim to get away with it . My DD is 13 she has some , and wears them with a very short skirt and boots - looks fine on her .

DD also 13 has some.
She doesn't weigh 6 stones yet!!!

She styles navy ones with checked shirts and brogues.
