Dramatic leggings - YouLookFab Forum

Last year (when was that?) I was smitten with R13's line of athleisure wear called Twin Fantasy. It was a mismash of patterns and grunge and general over the topness. But the prices were consistent with there stuff, and the sizing dicey. I might have fit into a large, but...
I'm tired of black leggings, so trying to figure out which one I want.
I really like the 1st one (

Baroque/Renaissance Art) and the 2nd (Floral)

Anyways Etsy has similar leggings. I have some cheapo tan/black snake legging from Amazon

I vote dark floral! My patterned Athleta leggings have turned out to be a surprise heavy-hitter over the past 6 months. Go-with-everything, go-anywhere. I pretty much never reach for plain black leggings now that I have them...

Oh, man! I love those reptile ones!!

Wow, crazy in a good way!

For a wardrobe staple you wouldn’t have to pick just one....
But , think color palette of the support act. Do you want more bright hot anc neon colors for your tops and shoes? Or bright leggings but everything else is a neutral? Do you already have some things like cargo jacket or woven shirts you want to wear with? Or softer nature colors. I like #3 pic for olives, blues, cream- white, some pink- with your blonde hair.

#1...love!
The other 2 are great but #1 is edgy in a way that I think fits you

I’m voting snake, baroque and Versace-esque

Thanks all
I should clarify that I already have tan/black snakeskin leggings from Amazon.

I can so see you in this look! I like the pretty flowers best

DonnaF

I like the snake ones the best, but given that you already have snake ones, I would first look at the rest of the proposed outfits (tops and toppers) which may cause you to eliminate some choices and choose others.

Ooh love the 3rd!
Wish I got the ones LaPed has when they were available :/

Joy

I wore dramatic tights back in the 1960’s. Don’t wear any of these unless you are prepared for your legs to be on display. I like the floral best. They remind me of Ted Baker tees

These are gorgeous! The baroque print is beautiful, but the placement of that, er, golden chalice (or whatever it is--can't quite tell), is a bold statement, and people might be staring at your crotch to try to figure out what exactly that golden object is :). Love the floral too, and I'm surprising myself by also liking the Versace-inspired pair.

Jenava

I like the giant roses. I actually like the snake ones the best, but they might be duplicates for you.
The Versace ones don't seem fun enough. I do like the dark floral ones as well, but I think would take more styling to amp them up.

Runcarla

Oh! The florals!

Sally

Wow they are fabulous. I think the first and third ones are the best.

I should clarify the rainbow snake are by R13, and closest I could find were tan from Amazon
I’ll try to dig up a link or find later. They’re better quality than expected, especially for the price

Suz

Those reptile ones are awesome for you, Anna! I love them.

So I ordered the first two, the baroque / Renaissance & the dark Dutch floral
It’ll take a while, one says 2-4 weeks & I think the other is 4-6 weeks

love these! the pattern placement on the baroque ones could be a little "risque" in a good way...maybe... I also like the dark floral, very #darkacademia.

One of my former students mom has a activewear business in Seattle using innovative recycled materials and they have a line of wild, crazy leggings, they do different collabs with artists. Not much on their site right now, but you might find something interesting some time. https://nubeusa.com/

I love the florals!

I desperately want to love the baroque/Renaissance ones, but the disembodied heads are throwing me off.
