I have noticed a lot of women (not teenage girls!) who are wearing leggings as pants. I mean, I'm happy for you that you are proud enough to show off your ass to everyone like that, but...I feel like we need a ruling. Leggings are not pants. Jeggings I am skeptical on. I feel like I need a flowchart: 1) Does it have spandex or lycra in it? If YES, 2) Does it have pockets? If NO, it is probably not pants.

The status is NOT quo.
Hahhhahahaha! You all are my favorites. LA is particularly egregious in the fashion omgwtfbbq, leggings as pants included.
Happy Birthday, Jon!

My mom bought me a few maternity tops that I thought were dresses at first, but they were a leeetle bit too short -- I felt very exposed wearing them with tights. So I've since taken to wearing them with leggings instead, I guess on the theory that leggings are sort of halfway between tights and pants? I *think* the tops are just long enough to not be obscene with leggings, but I always feel a little strange wearing them! (Also, I'm not sure I know what you're "supposed" to wear leggings with.)
(Leggings leggings leggings. What a weird word.)

When I was in college, I wore black leggings, black turtlenecks, and then an oversized men's blazer over the top. Which I guess is like wearing leggings as pants. I guess I wouldn't wear them without something covering my butt and crotch areas. But they used to be thicker than tights.

Because books.
With really long sweaters or shirts (like, mid-thigh) is how they used to be worn in the 80s.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
These were too sheer to be leggings. They were tights.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
They were definitely tights. I think leggings are appropriate if the top covers your crotchal area.
And that baby is clearly Above Average, so I say: False advertising!
