				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like all 3 looks.&#038;nbsp; The first one is more edgy and RATE, and the last two are more classic.&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like #3 best.  I guess I like a more classic look.  Wasn't that one of your style descriptors?  The jacket in #1 is awesome, but I think I'd like it better with jeans.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Another vote for #1. You look stylish, elegant, like this is part of your style. The other ones are nice too, and certainly flattering on your frame, but they look a little more generic. 
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like the edgier look of #1. &#038;nbsp;#2 looks a little flat by comparison, and #3 represent a good middle ground. &#038;nbsp;That's my .02, anyway  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I really like #1. The jacket is so fabulous it elevates everything (even leggings, my personal bete noire -- which look fabulous on you, by the way). I also think the &#034;cut up&#034; version, as you call it, emphasizes the gamine aspect of your style. Very urban chic.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I also like #3. Love a good trench, and for me personally, that would be easier to wear. Just because of coverage.&#038;nbsp;
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Nice to see you Kelly!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Rachy - good point about a coat or jacket making the leggings look more like outside wear.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Thank you for your feedback ladies!&#060;br /&#062;
It looks like it's all a matter of personal preference. I keep thinking that one look might stand out as better than another, but that is not the case. Thank you for clarifying that.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I ended up wearing the leather jacket today as It is actually warmer than the trench despite the shorter length.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;My fave is #1. It adds a little shine to the soft, provides contrast. I also like the tough vibe of the moto. I think it makes the leggings 'outside wear' as opposed to inside wear worn outside.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;My preference is for 3 with the leggings. It looks sleeker and more elegant to my eye. But, as others have said, no 1 has a more edgy look. You look good in both.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;You are certainly slim enough to pull off the chopped-up look, but the coat in #3 is such a great length and color for you, it wins my vote for favorite.&#038;nbsp; All three versions look good--casual and well defined.&#038;nbsp; I'm not a fan of long vests, so can't really give you an objective opinion on that.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;All 3 are great, I'd let the weather and you're mood determine which one to wear when.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;#3 is my favourite, but it skews as more classic (which is what my eye likes) whereas #1 is a little more RATE.  The take-away would be that you can style it either way, and look good.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I agree that I like it with the moto best (same reasons as La Ped) but they're all good and maybe softness is more what you're going for. Definitely a good look, no concerns about these leggings in public.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;All look great, but I also like 1 best. That's a great moto jacket, and it offsets the leggings nicely.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I don't have much of an eye for proportions, but I like the moto rendition best. Feels like there's more attitude there, and it adds some toughness, keeping the leggings from feeling too &#034;soft&#034;.&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I'm wearing leggings in public! Frankly, I'm not 100% sure this is my thing, but thought I'd try it anyway.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;My main question today is:&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Do you prefer the silhouette with the leather jacket (chopped up) or the one without (photos 2 and 3). Am I splitting hairs?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I think I might prefer NOT chopped up, and think it might be better with a long vest.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;What do you think?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Shoes: Nike&#060;br /&#062;
Leggings: Costco&#060;br /&#062;
Top: second hand&#060;br /&#062;
Scarf: gap&#060;br /&#062;
Leather jacket: Mackage&#060;br /&#062;
Purse: roots&#060;br /&#062;
Sunglasses: rayban
&#060;/p&#062;
