That sounds awesome.
It is. Clicky link!
I could vaguely understand "wet-look" leggings in a nightclub context (but then, why not just wear vinyl or rubber?), but at the office? Even my flexible interpretation of the dress code shudders at that.
Oh, see, I understand nothing in a nightclub context. I only go to nightclubs if there's live music and I know somebody in the band. (Or, before I actually knew the members of the bands, Velvet Chain or Darling Violetta was playing.) Otherwise I avoid them rather studiously.
I may start making an exception for the Clockwork Ball, though. Of course, I'm not sure how steampunk wet look leggings would be.
I think wet-look leggings are pretty hot -- and cheaper and more forgiving than rubber, vinyl or leather -- but they're not daywear unless you are Lady Gaga or Rihanna.
Kathy - I reposted that link on Facebook, thanks for that.
Okay, this may be old news, but did we know about the I Miss Buffy tribute album? [link] A friend of mine from Peace Corps who I got into the show sent it to me (signed copy!) and I've been listening to it today. This chick is totally a Buffista in spirit, if not actuality. It's hilarious! Song titles include "Kinda Wish D'Hoffryn Was My Boyfriend,"* and a punk tune called "Lipstick Wiccans."
* an mp3 of which you can dl for free at the above link
Also, the presenters say dub-dub-dub for www.
I would start looking for the three men in a tub.

I need brain bleach. Wandering through the cafeteria, I just saw a woman dressed in black "wet-look" leggings (so, high-gloss spandex), a cream/khaki thigh-length sweater (which I think had sequin details), and a pair of those open-toe high-heeled "boots"
1987 called.
They want their look back.
Please, to keep it under lock and key lest it escape again.
(I'm envisioning large, over-permed hair with bangs sprayed straight up completing this "outfit.")
Even back in the 80's we were smart enough to have toes in our boots.

True dat, but even then, the high-heeled gladiator sandal/boot thing was trying to rear its ugly head.

Yes, but we fought the power and WON.
