That aren't see through...do they exist?

Wouldn't it just look like you weren't wearing anything?

idontlikealdi · 09/03/2021 10:20

Urgh why? They look utterly utterly dreadful on anyone.

If you mean sports ones Fabletics do do some.

CafeMochaVodkaValiumLate · 09/03/2021 10:21

@CannotOperateOnThisFailure not if they're not see through 🤷🏻‍♀️

PP means because they're skin coloured therefore look like you're wearing nothing. Whether they are see through it not 😊

CooperLooper · 09/03/2021 10:24

Or not*

CafeMochaVodkaValiumLate · 09/03/2021 10:26

I get that. Unless you can see my crack then I doubt I'll look naked though.

From a distant nude leggings look like you have nothing on, they wouldn't be my choice, sorry op.

Popcornbetty · 09/03/2021 10:27

distance ^

TitusPullo · 09/03/2021 10:31

I do double takes when people are wearing nude leggings, it definitely looks like you forgot your trousers.

CafeMochaVodkaValiumLate · 09/03/2021 10:31

I accept that apparently some people might think I look naked. That aside, I'm after some non see through ones.

Will try fabletics.

Nude leggings are rarely flattering on anyone.

Is there another colour you could go for?

And it's not just being see-through with leggings, it's that the lighter colours reveal all the bumps and lumps.

No, no matter how non-transparent and how nice the body of the wearer is, they still look naked from the waist down. There’s a nice-looking woman who runs past our house regularly in a red running top and nude running leggings, and my eight year, unprompted, old calls her ‘the nudester lady’.

She looks like an only half-committed streaker.

CafeMochaVodkaValiumLate · 09/03/2021 10:38

Grin Christ on a bike....I'm okay with people thinking I look like a streaker.

Google image search 'nude legging fails'

MrsFeatherDuster · 09/03/2021 10:49

Are these for running or wearing under a dress, skirt or top. I often wear nude tights depending in my outfit.

@CafeMochaVodkaValiumLate 😂😂😂 this made me laugh

You can get Skims the waffle legging, they are £68. They are expensive as they are by Kim Kardashian.

Yes but perhaps we, the unsuspecting public, are not 🤐
Lolalovesroses · 09/03/2021 10:59

Are you trying to make a costume? Are you sewing material on to them?If so you can get nude very sheer leggings from the haberdashery in John Lewis.

goose1964 · 09/03/2021 11:06

This reminds me of a people in Wal-Mart picture. The only way you can tell she's wearing leggings is because she has ties at her ankles.

CafeMochaVodkaValiumLate · 09/03/2021 11:15

@Lolalovesroses thanks Lola - a helpful reply! Will check out skims, do you have to pay import charges?

OP posts:
Lolalovesroses · 09/03/2021 11:48

You can get them from the UK.Selfridges do them, but at the moment have only got the colour " bone in". Net-a-Porter and other high end stores stores will have them. I'm not sure about paying tax.

This is part of the "Style and Beauty' section. Which part of that have I not understood?

Kittykatmacbill · 10/03/2021 20:05

They really are not a good look, but i staring in horror at these <a class="break-all" href="https://adidas.onelink.me/ihha?pid=AppSharePDP&af_dp=adidas://product/GQ3854&af_web_dp=www.adidas.co.uk/GQ3854.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">adidas.onelink.me/ihha?pid=AppSharePDP&af_dp=adidas:product/GQ3854&af_web_dp=www.adidas.co.uk/GQ3854.html. And then someone walked past wearing the full set (cropped long sleeved top too)....

LadyTiredWinterBottom2 · 10/03/2021 21:57

For crying out loud

The woman said she wanted nude leggings, not your opinion on whether she should wear them
