My Turn With The Skirted Leggings Of Controversy!

claire

Warning, if you don't like brown boots with black, averts your eyes now! They're all I have, so that's just how we roll around here right now. Besides, they say nature doesn't make mistakes and my black pup has gorgeous brown eyes, so I'm taking my inspiration from her

I'm still a little conflicted about getting the right size, I would have liked to size up but the leggings were too baggy, and I'm afraid they would have fallen down if they'd stretched out. These are the xs, which is crazy but butt vest it is! And DH loves them, so bonus.

All honest feedback welcome, I can take it!

You nailed it. The length of the skirt is fabulous. #2, 3 and 4 are especially amazing. The brown boots are the BEST touch, and bookend your gorgeous locks just beautifully. Nicely done, and very cute pooch. xo

Awesome - every last one! Tell me more about the skull print t-shirt please !! And - I think the brown boots absolutely make this look for you - great idea! Are these the EF leggings?

Fantastic outfits! Love the brown with black - especially the all black with just the brown boots.

Now THAT is how to style a butt vest. IMHO. Well done!

Fantastic! I love them on you. This actually makes me wonder if I should try my brown(ish) tall boots with them too.

This is how I like them...the skirt part looks long enough to be a skirt. Nice!

I agree these look great. 2 and 3 are my favourites.

I love black and brown, I also love blue and green, and I love red and pink.

claire

Um, wow, I wasn't expecting such a great response, thank you!

Lisa, these are the EF ones, I splurged and so worth it. We have an EF store in Vancouver, my new favorite place. Let me know if you want me to send you some, no exchange rate! And the t is an old Aritzia one, they do their own line of vintage graphic t's and they do some cool designs.

I am so totally wearing my to-be-delivered skirted leggings with my matching Frye boots. Absolutely love this look! You look so great. Thanks for the inspiration.

Fabulous to see you post, and you look AMAZE-balls. LOVE these looks on you. There is no problem whatsoever with any of these, and only raves from me.

Phew!!

I now bow out of this whole kerfuffle, beaten roundly, but proud to see my skirted leggings sisters shine shine shine!

I must have missed a very important thread about a butt vest! I do not know what that is! Miss a day on YLF and miss something hugely important!

Oooooh love all versions. I almost pulled over at the EF store the other day but resisted....so very tempting! Your dog is adorable!

I love outfit #2. But all are very nice. Your skirt looks like it's just a touch longer and looser than on some of the other Fabbers - I much prefer his length! You look great!

claire

Karen, butt vest was all Una, I'll try and find a link to the thread. It was epic.

Jackie, thanks, back at you with the cute pup. I didn't comment on your thread but your new puppy is Gorgeous!

I can't believe all the love my SLOC are getting, thanks everyone!

Fantastic all 'round, and I too am now dying to try mine with brown boots and I hadn't thought yet to try the EF poncho, so thanks for the inspiration!

This is not a butt-vest, although there have been some butt-vests. I love it, looking chic.

Wow, as Angie says, you have nailed it! Love the length and your stylings are all fantastic. Nicely done.

Crackers - the EF Leggings look totally awesome on you. I love all your outfits!! Of corse, we are our pups!! I have standard schnauzers hence black/white but they look gray!! Matchy matchy pup is never wrong!! You fur baby is precious!! Enjoy your fab leggings and sweet fur angel!!

YLF in your EF leggings! The brown boots are great. I am loving #3 especially, but #9 steals the show.

Your pup is a fabulous inspiration. I like the brown boots with skirted leggings even better than black boots. The look is easier and softer. My favorite outfits are 2, 3, 5 & 8.

I like them all! You look great in the SLOC (love the new acronym). I especially like the outfits Angie singled out, and I also really like the last outfit with the long, chunky sweater. But I would wear any of these outfits, truly. And the brown boots are terrific--color, shape, height, and style. Your dog is adorbs!
