Leggings have become one of the most popular fashion trends over the past few years, seen everywhere and discussed frequently. While some see leggings as versatile and comfortable, others argue they are revealing and make certain body parts look unflattering. Supporters counter that leggings come in many styles, sizes, and colors to suit all people, and can be flattering when paired with the right top. The trend shows no signs of ending soon despite some predicting its demise, as leggings remain a staple for workouts, lounging, and casual everyday wear.

1. There are no ambiguous feelings toward this popular trend. Love them or hate them. It’s time to meet the marmite of the fashion world!FASHIONCOSMO LEGGINGS<br />Essential to every woman’s wardrobe! Leggings are the perfect on-the-go outfit. Emily Harding commends the ease and versatility of leggings.Although leggings can be seen as a quick fashion fix, others see them to be a serious fashion crime. Yeah, leggings are great in snazzy colours and pretty patterns...if you’re six and mummy dresses you. We cannot find a good word to say about this style recipe for disaster. If we really wanted to see lots of ass walking around don’t you think we’d visit a donkey farm? We are shocked to see you girls giving us a free show of that camel toe and butt crack! Come on girls, get some dignity and wear something that covers your bits! If it’s not the baggy knees from over worn, cheap material that catches our attention it’s got to be the fact that leggings make your legs look like funnels or chicken drumsticks. Wearing leggings could even make you fat! They deceive you into thinking you’re not putting on weight because they are black, making you feel slimmer, and they’re stretchy. So if you dive into a bowl of chips or ice cream, leggings manage to make you believe that your clothes are not cutting off your circulation. The outcome? After half an hour of hopping, tugging and a broken nail, you can’t fit into your favourite pair of jeans anymore. And your response? Straight back to the ‘slimming’ leggings. Vicious circle. The trend (if you wish to call it that!) is seriously over worn and common. How many times have you heard ‘What are you wearing tonight?’ ‘Oh just leggings and UGGs!’.And anyway, who invents an item of clothing that wears out between the legs before you’ve even decided on what top to wear with them? Keep leggings for workouts at the gym, lounging around at home or as bicycle shorts! Unless of course you really are trying to get the robin hood and his merry men look! Bottom line (excuse the pun): Cover your bum and everyone will thank you. Revealing all that should be covered and really exaggerating your bad bits – how long do leggings have before they are way, way over? Asks Jessica Willis.Leggings have become one of the most popular, most seen, most discussed fashion trend over the past few years. This versatile style has been around forever, peaking in the 80s, complementing the retro fashion. Finally we have a fashion that fashionable teens can talk to their Grandparents about! Readily available in every style/size/colour imaginable, including denim (Jeggings), slashed, animal print, lace, sequin, leather, velvet, floral, wet look or just plain black, leggings can compliment most outfits and styles. And as for not being suitable for the larger ladies, leggings are great for preventing ‘chub rub’ in the warmer months! This is fashion with an elastic waistband. You can’t beat it. Leggings can be picked up just about everywhere and range from a few pounds to hundreds for a designer pair. Leggings are flaunted by all ages, including both toddlers and OAPs. Everyone, no matter what shape or size, can make leggings work for them. Leggings are great to wear with a long top or dress and can accentuate bold, patterned tops. Leggings have got to be the most successful and loved ‘come back’ trend. We recall seeing magazines/blogs/people predicting the end of leggings a year ago, but the trend won’t die! Leggings have returned with more attitude than ever. The fashion world currently has a major crush on all things 80s, and leggings fit firmly into that category. We don’t think leggings are walking away just yet!<br />
