Long shirts and leggings??

5 replies

I live in wide legged jeans or cords, boxy knits and stripy tops!
a decade or so ago I wore the white stuff tunic dress and leggings thing a lot and it now feels really dated for me.
however, I saw someone in a long shirt - proper cotton stripy shirt but long, not just oversized- and I really liked it
how about shirts over leggings? And if so, where do I find shirts that are actually long not just big?
im 50, 5’4”, large size 10 and pear shaped.
thanks!

Youve just described my daily wardrobe. I live in leggings and long shirts. Comfortable and practical. I’m a part time carer of an elderly relative and this mode of dress works perfectly. If I’m going ( as mickey Flanagan says) “out, out” then I scrub up ok but the rest of the time leggings and long shirts it is.

Thanks @Ahwig - where do you get your shirts from?

Primary, matalan, super dry, and occasionally my husband who may have less shirts in his wardrobe than he thinks.😀

Uniqlo have some nice long length linen blouses for the summer.
