Deborah

For your info! Should anyone be looking for a longer length skirt:) Don't know the brand so cannot speak to the quality.

Thank you! If I go this route the longer length is what I would be looking for.

Interesting length. I always think anything well made or nice looking ever comes at a $24 price point

Lisa I tend to agree! And upon further investigation I think these might highly mass produced garments. Needless to say I haven't ordered them

Thanks Deborah.
I don't really get this trend though - how is it different to just wearing a knit skirt over leggings? Are the leggings more substantial than the leggings you would usually wear with a skirt?

Hi An, I think the main benefits would be that you are only dealing with one waist band and the two pieces, skirt and legging are the exact same fabric, colour and weight.:)

That makes sense Deborah. I do find the leggings waist bands often dig in and don't sit very flat (all the leggings problem of course!). I'll keep my eye out to try skirted leggings as we come into winter.

I love leggings, but I am definitely pear-shaped, and my backside is definitely not as shapely as J-Lo's. Do you think that skirts over leggings minimize a big bottom half? Or does this "solution" just make matters worse?

I think that the skirt over the leggings does make the backside look better...In fact, having the black skirt over the black leggings seems to me to be slenderizing...If I thought I looked worse, I would not be wearing mine every day...smile..
