What?! Are those leggings...worn as...PANTS? Yes, I went there. In fact I like going there quite often. I think as long as your front and behind bits are covered up with a top it's all good and decent. I bought this ribbed shiny pair that Jane Fonda would approve of a few years ago and only until recently did I start really wearing them. They're great for night and is a way to add different texture to an all black outfit.

ReplyDeleteI've never minded leggings as pants... I HATE when girls wear them under skirts, I don't know why it bugs me so much. This outfit is great, I love shiny leggings!

I wear leggings as pants too. I agree... as long as the front and back are covered then I think you are good to go :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I thought I was the only one who was crazy to think that the front and rear should be covered when wearing leggings!
ReplyDeleteLovely getup

You look great and I do agree with the others. Leggins are ok as long as you wear a tunic or long top. I wear this combo all the time.
ReplyDeletei love all black... and you do it sooo well
ReplyDeleteyou look great, i LOVE all black it rules.
ReplyDeleteI am guilty of wearing leggings as pants. I do not like seeing people wearing skirts or dresses over leggings, I think that looks weird. Black shinny lycra leggings are my favorite.

Hi Frances!
ReplyDeleteI found your blog via your interview on Feather Factor, and I must say... I love your style!
I noticed that in your interview, you said that your most prized fashion accessories were your Chanel bags and Cartier Love bracelet. Both great answers! But it got me wondering what were your splurges that you ended up regretting?
Anyway, I'm a new fan of your blog! Keep the posts coming! :-)
@Just browsing Thanks for the comment. I guess the only splurge regret that comes to mind is my YSL Easy bag in brown leather. I always forget I own it and I ended up not being a fan of the color. I still love the shape though.
ReplyDeleteI so love your blog! I see you just got nominated as top blogger by denimblogger. Super cool. I'm 14 years old & blogging about teen fashion from London in the UK. I hope my blog can be like yours one day. Tx.
