Snakeskin Jeggings - YouLookFab Forum

Sorry for the headless picture, but today I posted my latest purchases on my blog. This photo, which was taken yesterday on a particularly busy homeschooling day, so no makeup and bad hair....

I just purchased these jeggings and while I love this outfit, I know that it will look so much better when I reach my goal weight of another 19lb loss.

I wasn't sure I was brave enough to wear snakeskin jeggings, but I am so going to rock these as soon as I reach my goal!

Picture 2 shows that they are a petite length. Are they too short to wear with these booties? They were on clearance and only had Petites left in my size. I never wear petite bottoms...

The sweater is one I recently thrifted for $2.50. It is by Talbots Petite, which means they fit my arm length!

If you are of a curious nature, the rest of my recent find are on today's blog and yesterday I posted my collection of knee length coats....

They don't look too tight to me; why not wear them now? 20 lbs is a lot. Will they even fit by then? I didn't notice the length till you pointed it out...so I think they are OK. I like them a lot with the booties.

I have been posting myself wearing this silhouette on another forum with mostly foreign women who don't have tact and have gotten really bad feedback. It has really made me gun shy of the leggings tucked into boots....

I am currently wearing some from the same brand that i also wore before my current weight loss, so yes they will fit....

I think they look great! I agree.. 20 pounds down and they will be falling off of you. Wear them now while they fit!
I like them with the booties, and I like the concept of the taller boot even better, but those boots are a tad too tall. A boot a bit shorter will look even better.

hmm, are these the same boots that you are wearing with the snake skin dress on your blog? If so, I stand corrected, they aren't too tall, but with these leggings they do look a bit tall and big in the calf. Do you have a more calf-hugging boot to try them with?

I think they look great now too. With the boots they look good, but I find I do want to see more of the legging. I would love to see a pic with the booties and without the sweater. Or maybe with a big scarf. The sweater is very flattering to your waist but I think a little more balance on top may help. But overall - looking good!
Some people think one has to have a (society ideal) perfect bod to wear ANYTHING. These fit and look good on you. Wear 'em!

These are wonderful! Wear now and enjoy them!

I think these are awesome and they look great on you. Wear them now!!

Thank you, I guess I really let that other website get to me and make me very gun shy regarding this silhouette. I get such a different reaction here and much kinder ways of suggesting solutions....

My favourite thing about this website is seeing women of different shapes and ages rock the trends. I can't tell a thing about how *I* can wear the stuff from the fashion industry but I have learned so much from user photos here. Some people have those fashion house images stuck on their brains and can't think outside the box.

You look beautiful right now, so dress the body you have today! That said, those jeggings fit you and look great with the boots.

You rock those leggings, so let yourself wear them and enjoy how fab you look in them!

I think they look good now, and rather like the length with that shaft height of booties! If you still feel self conscious, then for the time being you could always layer a tunic or dress over the top. 20 pounds less and these will probably be falling off you, so enjoy 'em now!

Yup, in twenty pounds you'll have trouble keeping them up. But on the way they will seem to get longer, so your length issue will be solved, LOL! They are really cool jeggings.

I know you all think they will be falling off me by 20 lbs but I know better. I have the exact same brand in one size up from these that I wore before my current weight loss of over 30lbs and I have worn them recently.

Here is a recent photo of the originals...

I have thought of the longer tunic or dress and will definitely try that. I love the point of my weight loss making them a little longer!
