Leggings Are Not Pants

547cb28bc7c086c3c32141cb50ba728fI would like to take a moment to address a fashion fact that some people don’t seem to understand. Leggings are not pants. Technically, they are shaped like pants, you put them on one leg at a time like pants, but…and this is a very important distinction…they are skin-tight. So unless your skin and muscles are also tight and firm and non-jiggly do not wear tights as pants.

I totally admit that I am not a fashion forward person. I wear yoga pants, tees, and jeans. Most of my shoes tie. Those that don’t, have less than an inch of heel.

Do I think everyone needs to be a size zero? No. And yes, you can wear anything you want because it’s a free country. But I do think if you plan to wear skin-tight, not-quite-pants then you should be under the legal voting age or have the sense to wear a shirt that covers your bum.
