Last two NAS purchases (for now...) and I'm not completely sure about either one.
First, the Lysee leggings with leather insert. (Waving to Viva).
The thing you need to know is that I have never worn leggings. Legging jeans, yes. But actual leggings, no. So I don't know how to wear the things.
I got these in blue. They do not provide the promised girdling but that's because they're not very snug on me, I suspect. Regardless, they feel great and are a nice quality. My question is, how the heck do I wear them?
Pics 1, 2, and 3 offer some options with my tall boots. J. Crew tunic (1); J. Crew Collection cashmere oversized pullover (2); random sparkly asymmetrical tunic top (3). Are the proportions okay with those?
I don't know what other footwear a person might successfully pair with them. You can see booties and the Sweeties in some of the other pics. I don't feel as if those work.
Also, does the J. Crew Collection framed pullover in pale blue work with leggings or is it too short? It feels a bit short in front to me.
I'm inclined to keep them anyway as really useful items for my work at home casual life.
Second, the Pure Amici oversized cardigan. This is a pricey item even on sale. And ... basically ... I don't know what the heck to do with it. I don't mind oversized in the least, but it seems to me the proportions are bizarre on me. Or maybe I just don't have a clue how to style the thing? (True, that.)
How is one supposed to wear something like this? Do I need to find a slightly shorter version? Seems to me it works a bit better with the slight heel of my tall boots. But I'll be wearing it mostly indoors, in my slippers!
I am honestly inclined to return this one unless you all tell me I am nuts.
