Jeans + Leggings = Jeggings!

Posted by: shoplastyle on: December 9, 2009

Denim leggings (or jeggings, if you’re fancy) have been hot on the scene this Fall/Winter!  If you haven’t tried a pair yet, I think it’s time.  The bloggers over at Lucky have been comparing their faves and here’s what they had to say…

JEGGINGS: DO BELIEVE THE HYPE

by Melissa Lum

I have a confession to make: It’s been almost six months since I’ve put on real denim. I’m a proud wearer of jeggings. There, I said it. My “jeans” pull on and off and it doesn’t stop there.  They fold with ease when traveling, tuck effortlessly into boots, and are wildly comfortable.  If you’re ready to venture into the wonderful world of jeggings, I highly recommend  The Legging by Joe’s Jeans in Indigo Rinse

JEGGINGS: THE BEST STYLE I’VE TRIED

by Noria Morales

My colleague Melissa recently blogged about her love affair with the jegging and I thought I’d throw my two cents in. Jeggings are hands down the biggest trend in denim the last year (and get my vote for worst style name ever). I’ve test driven a pile of these stretchy wonders. Some don’t give enough, some are “sticky” (where the fabric is so soft it catches the wooly sweater you’ve paired it with) some are so thin they don’t give the “holding in” benefit of a jean. Some are pull-on, others are zip fly. There are a lot to choose from.

The best jegging I’ve found so far is from Citizens of Humanity. It’s called the Avedon Slick Skinny Leg, and the fabric is thick enough to pass as a real jean, but literally the softest denim fabric you will ever put on your legs. These super stretchy miracles are styled like an actual jean, with five pockets and an actual zip fly, which I love (although it’s mostly decorative- I just pull ‘em on). I have two washes- black and inky blue, and they are my go-to when I wear boots because they don’t scrunch up or look baggy.
