Leggings; hot or not?

Leggings; Hot or not?

OOTD
Shoes: Blanco
Leggings: Blackmilkclothing/NY skyline

Hello lovely peeps. Another warm day in Athens another blackmilk outfit for me. If it's not evident until now i am a bit obsessed with Blackmilkclothing and everything nylon. I know there are two different sides when it comes to leggings: the ones that hate them and the ones that love them. Well i obviously love them! Many claim leggings are not flattering and should not replace pants in an outfit. They say that they show the shape of a woman's body precisely and sometimes you can even notice the underwear if the material is not thivk enough. Although i agree to that point to an extent i believe it depends on the fabric itself and the quality of the product. There are leggings that are not flattering for certain bodytypes if the material is see-through and sheer however, this is not the case with Blackmilk. All the products (or the majority of them) are made from fabrics such as nylon and spandex (swimsuits are made of this :O) and therefore they can maintain their strechness while they are not revealing one bit! Wearing them sometimes feels like wearing a work of art (like the Monet Lilies leggings) or as if you are a member of the Slitherin Quidditch team (like the Slitherin leggings from the Harry Potter collection). They are comfortable, stylish and yet modest enough so you can keep your underwear to yourself. As far as the arguement about curvy girls who are not supposed to wear leggings all i have to say is that fashion is not for a specific size and bodytype but it is for everyone; tall, short, curvy, slim. All that matters is how this garment makes you feel and how well you can make it work. So in all my opinion is that the legging are one of the most ambivalent clothesthat became popular and a trend in the last couple years, and although it has its haters and lovers noone can deny that depending on the company and the quality it IS a very comfortable, fashionable and on occasions sexy-YES SEXY- alternative to pants and jeans. Before being judgemental and quickly point the finger and laugh at the person next to us because of their choice of clothes we should think of what we wear and the reason we wear it. So i guess to each its own don't you think?

  1. Depends on the style and what you are wearing them with. I think those look good (based on what I can see in the photo).
