Leggings. Not just for cute little kids.

I wore leggings in 4th grade. They were amazing. They had stirrup straps that looped down into my Keds. I was cool. Flash forward 20 years. I love wearing leggings!!!! Between 4th grade and when I became pregnant with Eva leggings at some point came back into style. I started wearing them at the point when I needed some comfy maternity pants and haven't looked back. I even admitted in another post that I still like to wear my maternity leggings. They are so comfortable! {insert eye rolling from every trendy person I know}

I currently own 6 pairs of leggings and I wear them all the time. A local high school recently banned leggings, citing that they can be too revealing, and I shuddered at thinking about getting through the winter without my leggings. Yes, I own other pants. There are days I wear jeans and once in a while I wear dress pants to church. But my favorite go-to outfits right now are based around leggings and boots or leggings and my oh-so-fashionable moccasins {more eye rolling and deep concern}.

Back to the ban on leggings...let me say that when I wear my leggings I make it a point to be modest and aware of what should be covered. A tank top and shear leggings does not an outfit make. Even if your leggings are fleece lined and not see through there are certain body parts that should be covered regardless of whether your 13 or 30.  I will leave you with this comic relief.

For the blog 
I can't be the only one who totally relates to this, right? {now being chased by fashion police}.

  1. I love the black leggings with the pink boots, they look so cute on you. I totally agree with you though, leggings can be for everyone. It's actually really comfortable.

  2. YES! Preach it!
    I love me some leggin's! I have planned majority of my outfits on being able to wear leggings (including my outfit for work tomorrow). and yes again about the modesty thing! I always make sure it covers my tush... :)
