I have some long legs and tend to buy ankle leggings. They always tend to creep way up and eventually turn into cropped length after a few washings. There's nothing that annoys me more...grrrrrr! So, Trinity F who has a few more inches on me, is in desperate search for some long legged leggings. I think I am too! I'm sick of cheapie leggings that don't last and have only a few wears. As usual, I've added some celeb shots, above, to get your fashionista brain a tickin' for legging ensembles!
Trinity F mentioned possibly wanting the type that bunch around the ankle, so I've given her some great options to spice up her Fall/Winter Wardrobe in this area (I've already learned HERE that RD Hub doesn't like ankle bunches so keep that in mind if a man's opinion matters to you). Leggings aren't going anywhere, anytime soon, so it might be one of those staples that you spend a bit more on this year. When I was recently flying back with ZOLA BELLE, I wore leggings on my two long flights and was I ever pleased that I did. They are so comfortable, cozy and warm.
My fave from the speedy-savvy-stylin' below are the European Culture Leggings by Yoox for $60 and the Romeo & Juliet Couture Black Jersey Cheetah at Bluefly for
$28. Both options would get some serious wear and rotation in my Fall/Winter wardrobe! I truly do think that longer leggings (all the way to the ankle) are much more flattering than the cropped or knee-length versions. If you already own a shorter length, just pair some knee-high boots over them. Maybe even ponder splurging on a killer pair of long leggings this season. You'll thank me later...enjoy!
