Jeggings Vs. Jeans

My friend and I totally disagree on this topic, I lurve skinnies (am a t-shirt & jeans kinda girl.) As far back as  I can remember, she has always hated wearing jeans…. so when I told her I was doing this post, this were her exact words….

“You know I’ve always hated wearing jeans….infact hate is not strong enough…I despise jeans…LOL! don’t get me wrong I do love the denim material just not as jeans, I find Jeans so so so so uncomfortable especially when it comes to putting them on!” Gosh how CRAZY is she??

But anyways, just when it seemed all hope was lost the fashion gods created Jeggings… It is a fine line between jeans and leggings, that sometimes have faux pockets and buttons. They are also sometimes washed and ripped at the right places. I like to think of it as the best of both worlds…the comfort of legging and  illusion of jeans…PERFECT!

Give your outfit an unusual edge by pairing them with a long top, or any basics you  might already have in your closet or cardigan and pair with wedges or ankle boots to get an ULTRA CHIC. Or throw together an EFFORTLESSLY stylish look by pairing it with a loose-fitting shirt and heels.

  1. I am so pleased with this article and agree completely with the writer’s point of view.

    I had initially debated over getting a pair of Jeggings, and discussed the thought with a close friend, who promptly denounced them and then chastised me for even considering what she considered an “abomination” of fashion!

    And I must admitt I understood her initial reaction as some clothes hybrids have been truly disastrous (culottes or skorts!!) but Jeggings transcend that and arrive at a more fashionable destination!

    Two thumbs up!
