Fall has arrived and it’s time to layer up: boots, sweaters, comfy hats, stirrup jean leggings. Wait a minute! Stirrup jean leggings? How does one justify wearing those things!?
I completely understand wanting the perfect fit of skinny and the desire to keep jeans tucked into boots, but this is a train wreck. The mere sight of the ‘pants’ stirred up memories of the ‘80’s, complete with teased bangs and multicolored, layered and scrunched socks. And just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse, a teen walked past me in the mall wearing the ‘pants,’ complete with high heels and a waist-length tee-shirt. Say it ain’t so!
Here’s my major problem with these pants: when the average person sees them in the store with no pictures as guidelines, they assume that wearing the pants in the tee-shirt/shoe combo is okay. Let me be the first to tell you, it is not. We have an issue of camel-toe, a problem with the stirrup of course, and the fact that these pants look like extended biker shorts painted jean color.
Now I love the idea of the perfect tuck, but if you’re going to wear these pants, wear them in an educated manner. Long shirts or sweaters please, and boots for God’s sake.
