Are jeggings really out of fashion?

I wear them, and so do the kids (16-18 yrs) I work with. If you like them, s*d what anyone else thinks, wear them! I'm currently wearing a pair with a long length grey hoodie...

I was wondering how many of those now claiming they love their leggings/jeggings were several years ago swearing they'd never wear them and would stick to their boot-cut/ straight legged jeans?

Well, certainly not me. I’ve been wearing leggings for as long as I can remember. They keep my arthritic knee warm. I don’t have to fumble with zips and buttons if I’m desperate for the loo ( key in door syndrome). If it’s really cold I wear walking trousers over the top of them. If I put weight on they still fit. I don’t have to worry that my Tena lady might slip out . My tunics cover my hips and thighs and I can wear extra layers under and over my tunic.. On the rare occasion that I do wear a long dress I wear 3/4 leggings in case my dress blows up ( I’ve noticed that my DIL does the same. When they get old I wear them for gardening. Most of them are cotton so they’re nice to wear when it’s hot. I only wear black or navy ones. I did buy some white ones to wear with a Seasalt blue striped tunic but it looked awful. Years ago I went to Asda to buy a new pair and there were none; I really panicked thinking they were out of fashion and would no longer be sold! In summer I wear 3/4 length with trainers and tunics but in winter I wear long ones and Ugg boots.

I've been wearing jeggings for years. I've got a sage green pair on today with some sandals and a white longsleeve T. They looked nice and reasonably smart earlier for meeting friends for coffee and were comfy enough to do some gardening afterwards. If it (ever) gets really hot I'll trade them out for a maxi/midi skirt because they are cooler.
