Being one who appreciates female fashion, the advice from down here in London is that girls wearing leggings under denim skirts is a frequent sight on Oxford Street. Personally, I think the look would be better without the leggings, but I would say that wouldn't I?
Leggings look good on sexy girls. FACT. For about 10 years, however, they have been exclusive to big fat mingers, on which they look positively awful. I am glad to see the fly honeys claiming them back. In order for me to tell you whether they would look good, you would have to advise me as to which category you fit into.
DJW - THEY ARE A WARDROBE ESSENTIAL
I purchased a pair of black leggings from The giant Top Shop in Oxford Circus ( known as ToSo in my social circle) in approximately March of last year. I found myself sending a text to by 3 best mates immediately after saying something along the lies of " I never thought I'd say this buy I have just bought a pair of leggins", which was met with derision and disbelief.
All I can say is I have had my monies worth 100x over from them. Great under skirts & dresses with pumps and chunky flat boots & I for one will be wearing them through the winter with jumper dress and knee high heeled boots.
Leggings update: DJW I took up the research mantle and have been out into Oxford Street this lunchtime to observe. Leggings are indeed very popular. Black is the most common but I've seen white, brown and, erm, leopardskin leggings. Some are 3/4 length, some are knee length. They can be worn under skirts, under shorts, under long tops or, in one case, on their own (although she was a fine looking girl).
