Jeggings. That interesting hybrid of pants and leggings that has been plaguing fashion mavens for quite some time now. Are they a do or a don't? An easy way to look put together yet still be comfortable or a sad attempt coupled with the fact that you are now walking around all day with a camel toe (mm-hmm that's right, uh-huh, oh no! fix yourself girl, you got a camel toe seeming to blare from all the headphones around you?). I am here to solve your dilemma and prepare you to properly and safely enjoy the fashion trend known as jeggings.
As I mentioned, these little rascals are part leggings...meaning, they are not actual pants. 9 times out of 10 they will feature a very unrealistic (and un-functional) "button and fly" or a super attractive elastic waistband. Not really the perfect candidate for that new crop top ya wanna wear. BUT these are absolutely perfect for tucking into all the boots we're about to be wearing without the obnoxious bunching that occurs making you look like you have some kind of weird lumpy calf disease. Sure, you can wear super skinny cut jeans but A) when jeans are that tight around the ankle, unless you have no shape, they are probably super tight everywhere else and probably a fashion DON'T in and of itself B) who wants to wear real jeans and deal with buttons, zippers, and wiggling to make em fit when you could just slide on a pair of jeggings with ease?!? Not me, that's who! The key to making these work is wearing a loose fitting top that is a little bit on the longer side and recognizing them for what they are.
I actually own these Romeo & Juliet Couture jeggings and I love them. They are super comfy and I especially love them in the winter with some tall boots and a big ol' cozy sweater. (I found this one @ Macy's on sale for $17.99!) If you click on the link for the leggings, they are on sale at Bluefly.com for $22.99 (orig. $64) but hurry up because the sales are for a limited time on BlueFly. Go ahead, embrace the jegging trend and show all those ladies displaying the outline of their ladybits that these can be a fashion DO.
