Women need to start wearing pants again.
I normally don't agree with my floor manager on many things, but the trend of jean leggings a.k.a. JEGGINGS needs to stop. First came skinny jeans, then came straight leg, then came super skinny jeans that eventually led to the trend that is, JEGGINGS.
Ugh, just typing the word makes me nauseous. I can understand not wanting to wear jeans, and going for an alternative, but really..when leggings themselves are jeans, why not just go for the real thing?
Take for example, HUE's Skinny Jeanz Leggings (pictured above). They look like real jeans, they feel like real jeans, and yet...they're just leggings. I've seen these in person (also come in black) and they're hideous. They have real back pockets, which still leads me to wonder what the point of these leggings are. I guess the only slight difference is that unlike jeans, jeggings let you breathe some more because they lack a button & zipper closure. However, this also just leads me to think, people are getting lazy to button & zip their pants. `=T
Now, like most trends, jean leggings can be done right. As tacky as this trend is, I believe there are people out there who can wear these right. Who are they? I have no idea, they're not my friends. I've helped so many people out at my job pick out a pair of jean leggings, and I'm always tempted to ask them why they feel so compelled to just buy jeggings instead of regular jeans and/or leggings.
But, that would be unprofessional. (leggings pictured above are TopShop.)
Either way, I just really hope this trend dies soon.
