How to wear JLeggings

JLeggings are that awful hybrid of leggings trying to masquerade as pants by appearing to be really, really, really tight jeans.

Until now, my official view on all things concerning leggings has been: "I have nothing against leggings as long as I'm not being forced to see every nook and cellulite-induced cranny of your backside...PLEASE just wear a long enough shirt to cover those issues..." Translation: jleggings are not the answer.

But Y'ALL...I bought a pair last week. YES you read right. I KNOW I CAN'T BELIEVE IT EITHER. But I promise they work. And after extensive research in front of a three-way mirror, here is why:

1. The fabric is actual denim with just enough stretch that they don't need a zipper. The acceptable ratio is 95% cotton/polyester (read: denim for those of you that didn't take TEXTILES 101 in college) 5% or less lycra/spandex.

2. A Dark Wash...hides your VPL, and any lumpiness :-)

3. It comes in a number size. As in 2, 4, 6, etc, NOT xs, small, med, etc.

4. They are not too tight, small, or short...to ensure the right fit check for muffin top and length (at least to your ankle bone).

Okay, leggings, you win this one.
