Tbh hhis article kind of disappointed me and I could have done without it. I am so freaking tired of being told what and what not to wear. Not everyone has the same opinion on clothes

I love the darker colour leggings so they are it out there. I love layering on with an oversized sweater or t-shirt.

I agree with Grace. Marilyn Monroe once said "your clothes should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to show you're a lady." Some leggings are too tight and show too much. No one wants to see cameltoe.

tbh. I think wearing leggings as pants are fine. as long as they aren't too thin of a material. I only wear them as pants if I can't see threw them. no problem at all.

Dont listen to people who say "leggings are not pants ". You dont need this negativity in your life.
