Yep, you read that right. Thanks to Jennine at THE COVETED and Jaime, the Denim Debutante, I decided to try out a pair of Hudson’s “jeggings” myself. I can’t say I really believe that they’ll work on me, but I’ve been experimenting more with leggings lately, and like the idea of having a pair that is more “substantial” and can hold everything in better than just leggings.
(OMG, how scary do those look LOL!)
I am a firm believer in dressing for your body type, but I’m an even BIGGER believer in trying new things, and thinking outside “your body type,” for a different look…and that’s what I’m doing. Hopefully they’ll arrive this week, so stay tuned for pics & a review!!
Does anyone out there have these? What are your thoughts?
They showed some by “Spanx” this morning on the TODAY show. I think they were actually called “footless tights.” Do these really qualify as leggings, and more importantly, do they WORK for those of us that aren’t a size 4???
those have been out for a while, no? you know what…i tried the joe’s jeans leggings – not denim, black cotton – on at anthropologie today and i loved them….i had to fight myself not to buy them since i have the hudson’s on the way, but if they don’t work out, i’m totally getting them. they were so comfortable and smoothed out all my bumps. and honestly, they may not be “the best” shape for me, but they weren’t awful, they were comfortable, and overall, a fun look…
Thanks for the info, Grechen. I loved the way you rocked the H & M tunic/dress with the leggings. Maybe I could do it after all…
you know, i asked the pr lady for the jeggings and this is what she sent me… though on seeing the jeggings around, i don’t know if they are indeed true jeggings.
that said, they are my favorite jeans right now. i just love wearing them, in fact i might even wear them today.

see, i thought yours were “real” jeans – i mean, they’re denim, right? mine are not denim, they’re cotton/spandex – like leggings, just thicker. so i don’t necessarily consider them “jeggings” since they’re not jeans, they’re just styled like jeans. sheesh…so complicated LOL.
