You look great in those pants. I decided something similar back when I embraced skinnies after a year of giving them side-eye, thinking that they were not meant for women like me who have thick legs. But you look particularly great in this style and I’m surprised you haven’t been wearing them all along! Here’s to wearing what we like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fear-of-leggings-no-more--#post-2083161 Sun, 08 Dec 2019 13:30:26 +0000 cindysmith 2083161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Screw the rules. I have new ones. </p> <p>Women over a certain age are not supposed to wear things they don't want to wear. Women under a certain age don't get to set the trends for women over a certain age. Women over a certain age don't get to tell us what we are and are not supposed to wear.</p> <p>Those pants look great on you. There is something so classic and chic about how them, and you've styled them well. If you like them, and you are comfortable in them, then you are supposed to wear them. It's just a bonus that a bunch of Fab ladies like them on you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fear-of-leggings-no-more--#post-2082511 Fri, 06 Dec 2019 16:14:50 +0000 taylor 2082511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love both of these styles on you, &nbsp;and they do look more like skinnies rather than leggings. &nbsp;<div>The cheetah print is subtle, &nbsp;but adds definite interest! &nbsp;I own faux leather leggings and love them to pieces!:)</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fear-of-leggings-no-more--#post-2082509 Fri, 06 Dec 2019 16:10:27 +0000 catherine 2082509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in those pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fear-of-leggings-no-more--#post-2082479 Fri, 06 Dec 2019 13:59:21 +0000 nuancedream 2082479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're rocking those slim fit pants with pizzaz!&nbsp; I especially like the BR Devon pants on you.&nbsp; Just DYOT. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fear-of-leggings-no-more--#post-2082467 Fri, 06 Dec 2019 13:13:20 +0000 RobinF 2082467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that these look more like slim pants than leggings.

Maybe they should be called *skinny* fit vs. *legging* fit? Both are pants; showing your behind is fine. What I don't like to see is VPL or worse, the pattern or color on the panties underneath.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fear-of-leggings-no-more--#post-2082302 Thu, 05 Dec 2019 22:33:09 +0000 slim cat 2082302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks a bit more like the slim fit pants than leggings and the fit is slightly relaxed/not tight. <br />I'd say I like faux leather pants a bit more than the Cheetah printed ones ( I can see the print ) because it makes for a dressier outfit. You look good in both of them - comfortable and relaxed. Lovely slim legs should be showcased on Holliday and every day!</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fear-of-leggings-no-more--#post-2082301 Thu, 05 Dec 2019 22:28:09 +0000 Helena 2082301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look amazing!! Rules are made to be broken ... Especially when it clearly doesn't make sense as these look flattering and lovely on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fear-of-leggings-no-more--#post-2082299 Thu, 05 Dec 2019 22:21:48 +0000 MsMaven 2082299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At least not these. I asked about the Spanx leggings a while back, but didn't order then. A bit intimidated by the rules: Women over: whatever age, &nbsp;and Women over whatever, shouldn't show their butts, I hesitated.</p> <p>So I bought some Style &amp; Co ponte cheetah print leggings on sale at Macys. I got M according to size chart. They were a bit bigger than I expected, but okay. Fit more like tapered pull on pants. Note: I didn't read laundering instructions at first--supposed to turn them inside out and wash before wearing. After washing they do fit a bit better but are big in the waist so they slide down.&nbsp;</p> <p>Then I saw the Devon faux leather pants at BR and bought a pair using some rewards. The tag calls them leggings though they have a zipper and button. They are high rise and hit just slightly above my navel and the waist is somewhat stretchy. They seem warm.&nbsp;</p> <p>Both pairs are too bulky to wear under any of my skirts or winter dresses.</p> <p>The Spanx leggings went on sale this last weekend so I ordered a pair from the website. Still no notice they've shipped, but I expect them next week. I picked Spanx.com instead of Nordy's because the Spanx site has them in several colors. Ordered an L, Spanx always runs small on me and review say the same.</p> <p>I don't mind my butt showing in either pair--I don't care what that over 50 blogger declared again just this week. I'm not about to wear tights as pants, and these aren't tights or in my book, even leggings,</p> <p>The body part I've always wanted to hide is my belly, and I'm much happier with that these days, but not a problem in winter.&nbsp;</p> <p>#1 Style &amp; Co--tried to lighten but you still can't see Cheetah print.&nbsp;<br />#2-3 the BR Devon. </p>
