Why you Shouldn't Wear Leggings As Pants, Ladies!

Okay, so everybody has seen this trend of wearing leggings as pants, I'm sure. It's annoying and it really needs to stop, ladies. It's just plain wrong. Leggings were not ever intended to be worn as pants. They were made to wear under longer tunic tops and dresses. Leggings with a short tee -shirt is not fashionable, at all. Yes, I know -- Leggings are warm and cozy and fit your body perfectly no matter what BUT it's got to end. It's crazy! It's madness!

 

This is Kim K, and it's not flattering on her either.

So besides the fact that some ladies still insist on wearing these leggings as pants, they don't know how unflattering it truly is for them. I just couldn't hold this rant in any longer. So, before I get started on my rant, I just want to say that there is NOTHING wrong with wearing leggings and a longer top and/or a mini-dress and/or a real dress. That's fine, I'm talking about the chicks that think a short shirt and leggings is their entire outfit for the day. Let's begin!

Why You Should Never Wear Leggings As Pants:

Wearing leggings as pants only shows off your entire bottom half with a clingy skin-tight material such as spandex. While some people have flawless bodies, like models -- most average women do not. That's fine and it's normal! (Duh, I'm a lady with cellulite, too.) However, when you don't cover your backside and let the world see every dent, dimple and formation of your body -- it's a little too personal to the public.



Leggings as pants just looks lazy. Now girls, I know we have those days when we don't feel like putting together an actual outfit and that's fine! Be lazy and throw on jeans and a graphic tee. I know bloating happens and jeans are always fitting as they should but just because leggings fit you no matter what doesn't mean you should wear them as pants.  It's the same equivalent to wearing Spongebob PJs to the store, just sayin'.

Leggings as pants don't leave anything to the imagination, ladies. Yes, they are warm and cozy. (I established this fact, when I took my own personal poll at work -- I asked every lady who bought leggings why they like them so much? Survey says, leggings are warm!) You ladies also forget that there are creepy men staring at all your goodies. When I say goodies, trust me, I have witnessed this first hand. Leggings show your crack and your camel toe when worn as pants. Especially if you get them smaller than you need to. Hint, hint.

If you wear leggings as pants, they is a good chance you look like your are straight out of a Jane Fonda workout tape. It's spandex, people!! Spandex and workout tapes were popular back in 1986. Not today. You might as well stick a headband on and pretend you are in the "Let's get physical" music video by Olivia Newton John.

Bottom line, leggings that are worn as pants is tacky. There is no other way to describe it and I want to make it stop for all women of the world. It's a bad trend that truly in unflattering to every women no matter if they are stick thin or curvy. At least wear them with class, girls. I cannot take one more camel toed, ass-cracked view in plain sight. At least wear a shirt that covers that area. And all, that is all for tonight. Cheers!
