Are jeggings ever ok?

I know these don't pass UWHusky's pants definition so she doesn't need to weigh in. Big Smile So, I know there are the terrible jeggings that are just a knit with faux pockets on them, but I have seen some (online only) that look like they are actually at least half denim...so does the name mean they just fit more like a legging? Does this mean they're tighter fitting on the tush and everywhere else than skinny jeans?

I want some pants other than my dark wash skinnies I can fit inside my tall boots since the dark blue isn't the best combo with my beautiful red boots.

Re: Are jeggings ever ok?

  • I think that anything that "eggings" in the end for pants shouldn't be worn for pants. They aren't pants and they look stupid.

  • I have some stretchy skinny jeans that I really like... I think that sort of thing is okay but not the knit ones. I love regular leggings though.

    ETA I love regular leggings AT HOME. Not in public without the butt bits being covered otherwise!

    Then I look stupid 90% of my off time!

    I wear jeggings and I also wear leggings but I make sure my tush is covered. I have seen a ton of thicker ones in stores. I have a pair (jeggings) from Target that I love actually. They have real pockets and everything... I want to get some thicker leggings but I am waiting until I am back to work!

    Your body shape is no way NEAR mine for pants fitting, so I can't ask for suggestions ($50 and under, I'm poorish) of alternatives. Sigh.

  • Pointe knit pants are a good in between option, if you don't want to wear a longer top. I follow the my crotch must be covered and but must be partially covered for both thick leggings and pants rule.
