Are leggings officially over now?
May 13th, 2008 by Emilia
Lindsay Lohan launched a new collection of leggings last Friday called 6126. The name is inspired by Marilyn Monroe’s birthday, you know, as in 6-1-26… clever.
I know some of my fellow MB staffers are quite touchy about this subject. I’m an advocate for leggings + not a huge fan of LaLohan myself. But hey, that’s just me.
Any opinions/takers?
leggings are only over now because she’s made an entire fashion line out of them. i’ll be sad to see them go though, they are ultra comfy.
NO…I REFUSE!!!
I don’t care if leggings become the eqivalant of those horrble goucho pants from three years ago…I will rock them on the daily

i like them. all of them.
i’m a bad person, aren’t i?
i especially like the 2 pairs on the right…
i’m going to hell.
i wish i had been this into them when i was skinny, but oh well. it makes the whole thing much more interesting i think. wait till you see my new nike ones.
6184 is *my* birthday, and I hate leggings (almost as much as I hate vests). They should have stayed in the 80s, where they belong.
this whole line of leggings idea could make or break this damn trend. and just when I thought it was dying too.
If you want leggings go see Brian Lichtenberg…Oh and can I say how fucking stupid that name is for a leggings line. Wow really honoring your icon there…Leggings…um yea ok leggings, leggings, leggings, leggings
my bringing back the leggings thing i have going is exclusively all over print. no solids
I guess it could be worse…she could be inventing a line of crotch-less panty things…at least at this rate her bottom half is covered.
And I would still rather continue to sew up the holes in my leggings than pay over ten dollars for a pair of them.
what creative development goes into making an entire line of leggings?
how in depth can u get
i have time, let me c…
leggings with zippers..cropped leggings, long leggings, short-style leggings, leggings with the annoying thing that goes underneath ur foot that ur mom used to force u to wear with slouch socks, colored leggings, printed leggings..lame, spandex…
hmmmm i dont think lohan got that far
heehee
Lindsay LoWhore
the pair to the left has built i knee-pads… classy!
These leggings are fug. I love leggings, but only some leggings…they way I only love some sneakers. These are no better than the ones you get at American Apparel.
I love Sarah Morrison’s leggings, and I love my Mansih Arora leggings (but I’m too fat to wear them).
BLORG. The girls in this office know how desperately I despise LEGGINGS. They’re disturbing. The problem with leggings is that despite how comfortable they are, they prompt people to wear the 1 of like 3 predictable silhouettes. I am so barfing sick to death of the leggings with long-torsoed 80s irono-surf singlet or the tunic with the thick headband and the ballet flat and/or the color block stiletto. And the reason we have to ascribe to long shirts and/or draping strategies is that THEY’RE JUST NOT FUCKING PANTS. Can we all have a pact that they look good on too few of us and that we can’t all walk around in Solid Gold and/or Ballet dancers’ drag. That said, Sarah, I agree that printed leggings are a different matter entirely. For example, Peggy Nolan’s print game is SICK.
That is sooo true! But they just don’t make pants that fit like leggings. And they don’t make super thick leggings. If pants could be made out of cotton/spandex and you couldn’t see what day of the week panties homegirl had on from behind then the world could reach nirvana. Trust.
I spent like two days trying to figure out if leggins are pants and also the appriopriateness of when and where its okay to wear leggings…Sarah told me they were glorified sweat pants….I wore them anyways and I have decided leggings ARE pants…just really comfy ones
I will not stop wearing something I like just because someone says they are “out”.
Whatevs, anyone on Team Leggings Revolution?
reagan you are misquoting me. you wanted to know if they would be classified as black pants in the workplace. i said no cause they are glorified sweatpants. they are not black pants.
Sarah..I love you more than black leggings!! HOWEVER..in my world THEY ARE PANTS!!!
They never said anything to me about them…I worked there for 2 days, then got a job doing bottle service at a lounge that’s only open 3 nights a week….I have to wear a ” sexy black cocktail dress”….anyways, I apalogize for the missquote… While we are on Lilo and leggings, I was watching E! Lindsays Lohan’s most shocking moments or whatever the fuck the hour long special on her insanity was titled, and noticed that when Paris was screaming “tell that firecrotch she’s not welcome!!” from inside her gate…Steve Aoki was the one who drove lindsay to paris house…it made me laugh
Or maybe it was on VH1….I watch way too much tv
steve was on tv? he was driving people places? which is more disturbing….
