Im 41 and I LOVE leggings! Nothing better to wear little short skirts and cover up my spider veins( too much retail work/standing).
I have a dress that looks like a 1960s smock( or maternity dress!) that looks cute with mine and engineer boots.
I also wear them with any dress I own, plus ballet flats or long boots if its cold.
Nicely, if I change at gym, when I ride to work and then put on work clothes for the short ride to work, it looks like cycling togs.

Oh and any lady who rides, despite her weight, is going to look good in leggins. I mean even if you have a big booty, your calves will be superb and legs toned.
Ive seen some pretty large ladies riding in tight winter longs and they still had nice legs.

BUt acid washed jeans

and NO NO NO to leggins printed like denim, eww! The goth in me revolts!

Leggings have been in fashion in NZ's for years... acutally I suspect that we're still riding the fashion wave from when they were in last time

(I work in the fashion industry, so have first hand knowledge !!

I love fashion.
Nevermind that I wear jeans and a shirt every single day of my life.

We touched upon half of these: 6 Fashion Trends to Avoid. So while we're "out of fashion" for not wearing the trends, we're "with it" by agreeing with the experts to avoid them.

I make it a point to never pay attention to what 'the experts' say women should or shouldn't wear.

wear classic things that make you feel good and you will just look good naturally.

ooh poofs! sign me up!! I love madonnas dress!!

To go on a plane today , I am wearing ( no joke) a pair of black plastic pants with chartreuse piping down side, a skirt made of tent fabric, black and chartreuse over it( with big side pockets in the same colour) and a tank top with a big cut out edged in chartreuse plastic!
My husband took one look at the c lothes( dance party stuff) and said, it looks like cycling gear for off the bike! I said, Im sick of trying to look normal and its boreing!! He agreed, and said girls are lucky, they can get away with it.I have to be a rock star or something, to do that!

After seeing a photo or 2 of you in past, you could carry off that outfit well than some of us. But is it comfortable to sit in a plane in plastic pants? Maybe it was a 1/2 hr. ride??

Yep. I guess they were rubberized pants which wasnt much better. It was about 15 degrees when I got on ( Co) and yes, its was 44 minutes( howdya guess, hehehe!)
Sitting in those pants, for about 5 hours was hard, later on. It was pretty hot in them. It was about 5owhen I bailed out, vowing never to wear them for that long again.
I was a

hit at the campground tho'!!
