To give you a brief history of leggings, they were originally used for things such as protection and warmth in the Renaissance era by women AND MEN. Cowboys wore leggings. Dancers wore (wear) leggings to keep their ankles warm. Then the 80's came (I thought we should never go back.) Leggings became a fashion statement under SHORT skirts and babydoll DRESSES. Then the 21st century hit and leggings grew out of control.
For most women, leggings feel comfortable. No zippers, no buttons, no constrictions, just good old stretch. However, if you are not careful, as your leggings expand, you may not realize your entire body is expanding. I truly understand the comfort that comes with leggings, but I also realize that leggings just aren't that thick. They're kind of like tights, the further you go up, the bigger things get (butt, thighs)...which means the more your leggings stretch, making them SEE through. You might not realize, but everyone BEHIND you realizes...especially when you bend over.
You may have nice ASSets, but no one wants to see your bright red thong through your leggings. Which brings me to address another point, DO NOT WEAR TANK TOPS THAT DO NOT COVER your butt in leggings. I have never seen so many bare asses in my life until this new legging trend, this really shouldn't be a trend Ladies. LEGGINGS should be a privelage NOT a right. If you got a little muffin top, or a little extra junk in the trunk (like most of us)- Flaunt what you got not what you WANT. Leave leggings as pants to the super models and teenagers.
So to all of you reading this, if you have to question whether or not you do this, then you should probably go buy some longer shirts and some thicker leggings.
Leggings as pants is risky....wear at your own risk!!
