SO, IS ANYONE READY TO REVISIT LEGGINGS?

[shazronnieWEARINGSHOES]

I can't help noticing that leggings are everywhere! (mostly under skirts / jumper dresses)

I remember the eighties well, and i am subsequently very scared.

I'm going shopping next week - should i try a pair?!!!

(I'm a size 10, but short BTW)

God no! I looked bad in them first time round.

i believe if worn under a skirt they masquarade as footless tights but they are not fooling me. i remember wearing a harliquin style pair and my dad dryly asking me if i was going to a fancy dress party.

I won't be revisiting leggings, I have horrible legs, fat and wobbly on the top, big J-Lo bum and hips and skinny calves. If I had shapely legs then yes but I'll stick to bootcut trousers. I'm a size 8 so it's not a fat issue merely I would look terrible in leggings look.

shazz, take alook at northerner's thread.

I don't mind them under skirts but am haunted by the memories of them under big t shirts and sloppy joes... no!!!!!!!!!

So will not be doing it, opaque tights all the way for me I think

omg I had a harlequin pair too, I'd managed to block this out (like people who block out traumatic events in their lives) shudder I will not be revisiting!

at least they are wearing them under skirts there where too many crotches in the eighties

My calves are too big

Remember them the first time round - refused to wear them then, so certainly not going to start now!!

Revisit? - I never stopped wearing them

Horrid on anyone over 16 imo. Leave them for the kids!

Message withdrawn

seems this is a fashion mistake only a few are willing to make twice!

think i might just try a pair though....

Yes I'm delighted. Have pert gorgeous arse and look great in them.

But this time round leggings aren't supposed to show your arse. You have to wear a long top with them otherwise you'll get camel hoof. And look like you're in an eighties timewarp.

I might get some leggings - or footless tights - if I can find a suitable maternity dress/ top to wear on top.

exactly what i was going to say cupcakes.

arse - pert or otherwise - not to be shown in footless tights incarnation, i'm sure of it. skirt or dress essential.

no, i won't be revisiting.

It's nearly winter - my feet would freeze. Are you supposed to wear them with those shooboots?

Oh they are positively vile IMO.
They don't look good on anyone, children, models, gorgeous sleb types, no one!

DON'T DO IT!!!!

I have chunky legs and saggy arse so a definite no here .

I saw a girl in Tesco yesterday, about 16, in black footless tights, mini-kilt and black top. She was wearing black ballet flats. She looked fab but definitely a look for teenagers with good legs.

Opaque tights for me, long skirts and long boots. No showing of any hint of leg at all.

Oh well if you can't show yer arse, there's no point in them at all.

NOOOO!! still scarred from first time round!!
never again!

I must admit am considering it
but have been wearing skinny jeans under jumper dresses

id love to but htink ti may be a mutton moment
i have good legs ( which is good as the rest is ropey)

sister got a fabbo tunic thing from principles yest that may be leggings friendly
