Lesson 1: Leggings are NOT pants!
Even if Urban Outfitters advertises it...still not. I am alarmed at the number of women who believe they are. Seriously, ladies...why would you think that?
Even if Nicole Richie wears them...still not.I take some issue with leggings being the bridge to modesty for a mini skirt, but I can at least see where they are coming from.
Even if you dream of becoming Cat Woman...still not.I bring this case to you, my fashionable friends, for a final verdict...
Location: Happy Sumo
Violators: Almost every waitress
Worst Offender: The sheer leggings with short tee...and scarf.
Issues: 1. You are working...where people are eating. 2. This isn't that kind of business. 3. It is the dead of winter...aren't you cold? 4. They aren't pants (some had the decency to wear tunics/longer tops) they are more like undergarments.
So, am I out of the fashion loop or are this many people confused about the purpose of leggings? Better yet, are you or someone you know wearing them?

AMEN!!!!
I honestly never got the leggings fad. They remind me of when we were 6 and wore bright pink leggings with a bright pink flower top. Cute when your young, embarrassing when your old. No booty looks good in skin tight cotton pants.
I totally agree!! Maybe I should print off 100 copies of this and start posting them in the bathrooms around campus for all those confused non-pants-wearing girls out there...
um two things to say:
1. if my legs looked as good as nicole richie, i (in all honesty) would probably wear leggings instead of pants.
2. even if my legs DID look that good, it is a leeeetle breezy (okay maybe ONE time i wore just leggings to try to fit in with the indie rockers).......and it is against the honor code...i swear.
anyhooo...
all this to say i agree.
ps. the word i had to type for this was: sansatin. now is that sans satin, sans satin pants? aka....leggings? or maybe i'm having a delusional day at work.
Are you kidding? I love leggings! Infact I have a pair in every color. I actually think I look better in leggings while 6 months pregnant than EVER BEFORE!
If you think I'm serious....go buy a pair of leggings. You deserve the joke to be on you!! haha
The worst is seeing moms wear the leggings with super high heels. Can you imagine running after a kid all day, loading in and out of car seats, making lunch, changing poops, and taking out the trash in heels? AS IF!!!
Amen and hallelujah, Amy! So true!
