Lularoe prints are fugly.

I love my LLR and if anyone sees me walking around in my printed leggings and thinks they're fugly then they can enjoy their solid leggings or jeans or whatever. Trust, I don't want to share

My thoughts with the LLR is that they will be functional throughout pregnancy and pp, they are extremely comfortable, and if I am paying $25 for a pair of leggings I want to make sure they are something that makes me squeee. I've bought leggings elsewhere and they just don't compare.

peachesnbean · July 2016

I couldn't get into Mad Men. I struggled through the first season and once I found myself begrudgingly turning it on like it was a chore I just quit. Not my thing.

I agree for the most part. I've seen a few pairs that were sort of cute but the rest are awful. I don't care how comfortable they are.

I mean...seriously? You're going to walk around with pizza slices on your legs?

transfering wtf wed to a UO... Getting revenge or guilting people for not doing the right this is basically the same level as not doing the right thing.

Yeah, no. I would never walk around with pizza slices. If I were a rich bish, I would wear them to my daughter's pizza party at school. But I am not going to ever buy anything like that in my lifetime.

Jlk2016 · July 2016

I hate sitcoms. All of them. I don't care how "funny" they are, they annoy the shit outta me.

bdesterhouse · July 2016

Being stuck in Chicago's airport is stupid. 2nd time flying through Chicago and I get stuck again. It makes me hate this city.

Starfish113 · July 2016

To piggyback, I also don't think LLR looks flattering on people. I bet it makes pregnant women look even further along than they are.

Tennis11785 · July 2016

I'm a bit skeptical of LLR, but I bought an outfit to see what all the hype is about. I do love leggings, especially when I'm working from home. So I figured even if they are soft/comfy but aren't really good for out of the house, no one sees me when I'm working from home anyway.

cantalopes24 · July 2016

I don't really get the LLR love. I am not that short and I feel like the leggings are soooo long and come up so high I have to bunch them up. They're also really thick, there is no way I could be wearing them in the summer. I won a pair at an open house my friend had and I've bought somethings for my daughter because she is very sensitive to fabrics and they are soft but I can't get into them for me.

turtlemobile2 · July 2016

I'm an LLR consultant. I love the stuff obviously. To each their own though. To me they are comfy as F*** while pregnant. Plus I look fantastic in it.

turtlemobile2 · July 2016

It annoys the crap out of me when two people sit side by side in a booth when no one is sitting across from them. What's that all about? How can you even talk properly?

i love doing this on dates with my H, especially if we are sharing foooods

cantalopes24 · July 2016

@turtlemobile2 my husband likes sitting next to me. I've never done it with anyone but him. It works because I'm usually freezing in restaurants and it keeps me warmer haha.

I second this! I side eye people who do this at restaurants!

H and I hardly go out for dinner, and when we do we sit across from each other. I really don't pay attention to how others are sitting, but I think if they are a couple it's sweet to sit side by side. They can whisper sweet nothings, sneak in small smooches awww cute. As long as it's not over the top PDA. But if it were just random friends or business meetings, I'd probably think it was weird and that maybe something else was going on haha.

poofwok · July 2016

I love lularoe. Some of the prints are really cute. I was skeptical to buy any but I found a pair I liked and gave it a shot. They've now become one of my fave! I'll definitely agree to the fact that some of the prints are quite hideous and tacky.

UO: I hate pot locks. I'm fussy with my food and usually dislike a lot of what people make/bring unless it's veggie or fruit platters.

MonaLisaRalphio · July 2016

I usually have neutral-to-negative feelings about LLR but TBH I think those pizza leggings are fucking amazing. Because, I mean, pizza.

Edited because I can't acronym.

kswiger06 · July 2016

I feel bad judging a book by the cover, but my first thought to Pizza leggings is trashy. I picture a trashy drugged out lady staggering around with dirty hair and trying to bum a cigarette... it could be just about location though cause here it would most definitely be a no no to wear those in public... maybe as jammies, but not something in public.

Xstatic3333 · July 2016

I would try LLR. I'm looking to invest in some legging/comfy dress combos for this pregnancy, and I like many colorful patterns. No way no how on the pizzas, though! I've actually never been offered LLR. My friend group is blessedly MLM-free.

UO: I also like Jamberrys. They're fun and less annoying than polish.

Main UO: This will be truly unpopular, so I want to clarify that I'm not asking anyone to change their behavior, just participating in the spirit of the thread. I really don't like when the word "baby" is used without an article, as in "getting ready for baby" or "can't wait to meet baby." It just bugs me.

MonaLisaRalphio · July 2016

@xstatic3333 I buy all my leggings from Fabletics. Quality is good and they have a lot of options. They go on sale pretty frequently, too.

Do you have to be a member to buy them there? They have cute stuff but I've never really looked into it since it seemed like a monthly commitment.

I second "because, I mean, pizza" After viewing those leggings it took everything in me to get a salad for lunch instead of the pizza that I really want!!!! I feel like I should be awarded bonus points for this. I live in NYC home of AMAZING pizza on every corner.

I think you can buy without being a member. The membership gives you a deal on their monthly "outfits," but you can skip months whenever you want. I've been a member for like 3 years and I've only actually purchased maybe 3 months.

Nice! My H is in a monthly club like that but he's awful at remembering to skip. I could probably handle it. I do have a slight yoga clothes addiction, though.

turtlemobile2 · July 2016

@Xstatic3333 I'll send you a pair of LLR leggings if you want to try them out. Just let me know.

fourPsinapod · July 2016

Some of the LLR prints are super fugly but I have scored some really cute ones (at least I think I did! Haha!). I just bought these the other day:

I never have a good UO. I'm boring.

Eta: not my pic, stolen from ebay

varimama · July 2016

Sometimes DH and I sit next to each other at restaurants if we're like done with our meals but listening to a live band and ordering drinks. Otherwise I prefer across. One time we saw another couple from work at a restaurant sitting next to each other eating and DH who is normally pretty quiet and reserved goes up to them and says "so you're same side sitter eh?" in the judgiest voice. He was joking and it was actually really funny considering it was so out of character for him.

@Xstatic3333 I like Jamberrys too but have been too exhausted to even use those lately. Idc how expensive of polish I buy it lasts 1-2 days tops. I really liked the Gel manicure I had done for my wedding, it lasted forever but I can't afford to get those regularly...

I love wearing just leggings and a shirt at home but no way am I going out in public with leggings unless they are under an actual dress (not just a long shirt). I wanted to loose 10 more lbs before getting pregnant but I'm not grossly overweight and still it's not a good look for me at least...

catmommac · July 2016

I'm kinda tired of all the friends on Facebook who are all suddenly becoming consultants for companies and selling stuff. I'm all for people finding opportunities to provide for their families and work part-time, but I'm super annoyed by all the Facebook groups that I get automatically added to and have to remove myself because they post sales offers and online parties 10x a day.

Gingersnap · July 2016

^agree. I wish there was a setting that blocked me from all that shit.

catmommac · July 2016

@Gingersnap yes! I wish there was a setting too!

silvercamaro77 · July 2016

@marriedhamstermom and @Xstatic3333 I like Jamberry's too, but haven't gotten past the learning curve on them yet. I compared them to the Sally Hansen Miracle Gel polish (the 2 step color and topcoat) and the wear time was about the same as the Jam's although my application was definitely subpar so it was probably user error.

tentacular · July 2016

I say a big fat yes to the pizza leggings. They're wonderfully trashy. But I hate everything MLM so have never bought LLR just on principle. I want the don't-sell-me-stuff setting on Facebook, too.

My UO is that I think chocolate is overrated. I mean, I like it, but... Eh. I'd rather have most other desserts. Cheesecake? Yes please.

They send me an email on the 1st of every month telling me that their "picks" for my outfit choices (based on my self-entered preferences, but you can by any outfit you want from the collection), and then I have until the 5th to skip. So if I know I want to skip the month, I go in as soon as I read the email to skip it. They make skipping surprisingly easy - it's just 1 click. And I think they send a reminder email on the 5th that says "last day to shop or skip."

ETA I've only forgotten to skip once, and then they just take the money from you and give you an account credit, so it's NBD.

I can't buy those dove chocolates or the hershys bliss... when I do I can eat a whole bag in a day. I have no self control when it comes to chocolate. It's so bad that if I buy any my husband has to ask if there's still any left... in the same day.

BumpasaurusRex · July 2016

Don't get me wrong, pizza is divine.

Just not on pants and not on leggings.

And yes to please inventing a block feature. Almost every week I'm added to someone else's LLR party/essential oils/Jamberry.

Just stop.

Kenya715 · July 2016

My UO is I get really annoyed seeing the same photos on Facebook and Instagram. Don't really know why it bothers me but I've unfollowed lots of people on Insta because they always choose to post the exact same photos and caption on FB.

Want a personalized experience?
