lace leggings

Leave a response ->

I feel like I’ve just been here, except I was talking about liquid leggings. Lace leggings … really? I actually get it, for the young crowd. The crowd who didn’t do it in the 80′s is sure to have a little fun with it. However, are women over 21 wearing them? I suppose if you’re going clubbing I can see it. I know lace is very “in” right now, but isn’t this going a little overboard? OK girls, I want to hear from you on how you’re going to wear this trend. School me on this one, I need to know how it plays out. Am I just over the “borderline”, and not understanding that “girls just wanna have fun”, but “how will I know” unless you tell me of course!

      no, no, no! another 80s thing that REALLY should have stayed buried IMO. I'm OK with lace in small quantities. The new InStyle issue has some cute pieces. But lace leggins? no. no, no, no. really, no. they look kind of tarty, don't they? (is it ok to say that?)

      Not sure it's a trend I'll adopt. I love lace, but on my legs? I did see a woman my age (mid-20s) in lace tights paired with a shift dress just yesterday at a business event. So someone is wearing them…

      I won't be doing lace leggings any time soon. It's not that they're “tarty”–I think “tacky” is a more appropriate term. Lace is lovely, but not on legs, no matter which generation you hail from…my purely subjective take on that.

      I think the black lace is in right now. Match them with a cute tunic top, adorable mini dress and ankle boots and you're set! I guess your age can play a part in your decision to wear or not but I would prefer to look at it from a standpoint of where you are going out to when going with black lace. A night club – definitely, a friend's part – could be, a work related function…not so much!

      i just bought a pair of lace print leggings today which is not as full on as real lace. i will be wearing them with floaty tops, chiffon, sky high details black heels and my vintage black biker jacket for a romantic grunge look. i think age probably plays a part but if you really want to wear lace on legs then maybe a subtle lace stockings with a vintage shift could work, but otherwise confidence makes every outfit yours

      My friend wore hers at a fashion event. You have to know what to wear with them. Of course heels and a tunic goes perfect! My and my friend are in our 20's

      I'm going to a 40th birthday bash on Friday nite and have just bought a pair of lacey leggins that look fab. I have high shoes or ankle boots to go with them, but not sure what to wear on top. I want something that has the “wow” factor.

      I would go for something fluid, or like a tunic in black – Mara Hoffman style. Be careful not to go too tight on top. I think the ankle booties would look great!

      I did not do them the first time around and have no intentions of doing them again. Tarty? I agree!
