Je-Je-Je-Je-Je-Je-JEG IT OUT!
I remember a time when I used to live in my flared jeans & vowed that I would never in my life wear anything tapered, skinny or straight legged ever ever again. Flash forward to A/W '05 and suddenly the skinny jean trend was embraced, (although it took lots of umming & ahhhing in the Topshop changing rooms as I swore that the "Baxter" made me look like I had a pair of turkey drumsticks for legs!) Today we're very much embracing jeans in all shapes & sizes... boyfriend, colour block, skinny, flared, peg leg... oh the possibilities are endless! I however am now finding it very difficult to prize myself out of my skinnys (or leggings for that matter) which brings us nicely onto the "Jegging." Think of them as the lovechild between your favourite pair of skinnys and your favie pair of leggings -hence the coined new name!
They're already on the high street and are being hailed as the new wardrobe staple. Check them out at both Warehouse and French Connection. (FC's also offers a unique 360 stretch which is said to flatter... me likey likey).
Alternatively you could opt for Topshop's printed denim effect leggings:
