A bigger problem then leggings

Are high waisted shorts. I went to Outkast last night and the amount of women and teenagers wearing them shocked me. Not a single woman (or teenager) looked good in them. And we're talking about a huge variety of body types. Seriously ladies, don't try this fashion trend. I also saw many leggings with crop tops and that is also a terrible look, even if you like leggings as pants.

    Eeww.  I've seen them and I am not impressed.  

    Outkast is still around?
    Hallelujah, it's a miracle, I have children AND a signature!

    DH hates these. It seemed every girl at the beach this summer was wearinv them and he would comment every.time. They're NMS but I don't think I would've even noticed the trend if he wasn't pointing them out all the freakin time lol.

    so I was trying on what I thought was a cute black knee length skirt at Express last month.  I couldn't for the live of me zip it up even though it was my size.  Then I figured out it was super high waisted.  not comfy at all, so I didn't buy it.

    This is definitely the sahm fashion unity horse because high waisted shorts are just awful. I don't think they flatter a single body type.

    Outkast was amazing. So much energy. I'm in Atlanta so they really brought it! Goodie Mob and Erika Badu (sp?) came out. Andre said he thought this would be the last time they toured together.

    Yes! I saw so many of these on saturday. And most of the women wearing them had camel toe and thunder thighs. So not attractive

    Thick thighs, save lives.

    Oh trust me, I have thunder thighs of my own. I just keep them hidden

    I don't really have a butt but high waists keep in my flab. High wists for lyfe. Suck it haters.

    See I think while they may mask a belly they make people look wider so they don't really slim the body. To hide a belly I think a well fitted mid rise jean with a shape wear tank underneath a top works well. Empire waists can be flattering (again as long as they fit well) as well as layers like cardigans.

    I see a lot of high school girls wearing them, and I think they're really cute.   They wear them kind of preppy with the blouse tucked in just in the front and flats.

    They are definitely cuter than the plaid pleated skirts with the giant safety pin that were in style when I was in high school.

    There is a world of difference between pants that sit a little higher and are definitely not low rise ( which sounds like what you mean, ) and the super high waisted trendy stuff.
