leggings

[miamifashionista]

does anyone know where i can find black leggings in the us like the ones kate moss and
sienna wear??? i can't find them anywhere..why is it the most basic pieces are always the hardest to find..

I just buy black opaque tights, and wear them as leggins if they're too sheer, I wear two at the same time ... I love love leggins, my fave ones are from Norma Kamali, and they're just silver lame and spandex

I'm the same as Ale, opaque tights. Really doesn't make a difference since (if you're like me) you're not going to be showing the top part anyway.

^ Hey! I do show my top part

Edit : I'm not the same as Ale.

i know u can buy 'footless tights' and if u just get thick opaque one's they'll be basically the same right? or u could get a normal pair of tights and cut the bottom off, i always like that look

That would be great, but don't worry at all if you can't.

of course that's not a stupid question. though I'm not totally sure on the answer but I will try to help. I went to the american la redoute site and came up with these, which are different from the ones in the above pic, but they look the same: http://www.us.redoute.com/laredoute/product/product.asp?pf_id=56133&dept_id=4668&search_token=1

anyways, the sizing is american 2/4, 6/8 and so on, so since you say you're a size 2, that is the size I would order. since they're leggings they're not going to be sized in the same way that jeans are.

Here is how I wore mine, but I personally think they came out disasterous!!
