well i'm glad you've realised you're wrong. because i know i've been right about them for well over a year now.
I didn't like them because I didn't think they'd suit ME. Out of pure chance I tried them on the other day. I didn't think I'd have the legs for them. Turns out I do and they looked rather nice. It doesn't mean I was wrong, it just means I didn't have enough confidence in myself.
I STILL think they look stupid on SOME girls tbh. I assumed they would on me too. I was wrong about that, fair enough.
I'm wearing them because I think they suit me, not because everyone else is wearing them. I tend to want to look like more of an individual rather than a clone.
Back to the topic now anyways. We've both made our point.
and what is this 'fashion victim' and 'clone' you keep firing out as some sort of insult? are you suggesting thats what i am? why is that? because i saw something in a shop well over a year ago and started wearing them?
I don't know what you wear! I've never seen you or a picture of you!
I'm talking about girls at my uni tbh. Most of them look the same.
I won't look anything like everyone else tbh because I haven't seen anyone with my sort of top around here in Preston. Most people here wear footless tights with demin skirts, rather than long tops.
I won't be like the girls at uni. I won't be wearing them everyday like most of them seem to around here. I won't wear them everytime I go out either. I've only come to these assumptions because of what I've seen here, not because of what everyone has wrote on these boards.
Back to the topic anyways. This is getting silly.
most people wear them with tunics nowadays anyway.
This reminds me of Primary 6 when I stamped my feet and went in a huff because somebody in my class saw the Power Rangers movie before me, even though I liked Power Rangers before he did.
There's nothing funnier seeing somebody walking about looking like an idiot in God knows what that totally doesn't suit them, when it's blatantly obvious they're only wearing it because some magazine told them that this would be the next big fashion thing.
There's nothing to say someone who started wearing something a year ago suits it any more than somebody who started wearing it a week ago
thank you.
and i don't even read magazines nor have i said i look better in leggings than stacey does.
Uhh, I never once said you said you look better than she did.
My point was that just cause you see her as being "behind" and sneer at her ("pfft") doesn't mean shit - what's important to most normal people is they like what they wear and wear stuff that suits them, irrespective of how long you claim to have known all about it, or how long it's taken her to cotton on.
It's exactly the same mentality as me being about 10 and getting huffy because I liked to see myself as the first to like Power Rangers and didn't like it when other people started liking it too.
haha that made me laugh. a lot.
and erm. i dont know why but i feel like pointing out that a lot of rock/alternative girls have been wearing footless tights (and not even footless tights that you buy especially, in th'olden days when they didnt sell them in topshop you would just cut the feet/bottom off a pair of tights, which is what i still do
i remember cos a few people i know started getting annoyed that they sell them everywhere not and when they started selling them in topshop.
but anyway. erm. yeah.
To the OP - like everyone's said, the top is too short for leggings. It's a nice top, though! Topshop have got LOADS of long tunic tops in at the moment in shitloads of colours that look wicked with leggings.
Yeah, I remember meeting Steph for the first time and she was donning the footless tights (i.e., cutoffs!) that was like, the start of 2005 or something.
i wasn't trying to be mean or in anyway suggest anyone with anything other than slim legs wouldn't look nice in them! i was just curious because i have quite slim legs and find them to be quite tight. my footless tights are anyway, not my leggings. i'm sure you'd look lovely!
I didn't think you were being mean at all - I was trying to back up what you were saying, haha. Me in footless tights/leggings would be HORRIBLE. Guaranteed! I would have to laugh at myself in disgust, haha!
