A night out…

ruffle-y!
I’ve been eager to try out these new capri leggings I got from Music Legs, but they somehow seem too dressy to wear around the house or office, not that they are and not that I let that keep me from wearing nice stuff when I feel like it, but I just hadn’t gotten around to wearing these yet.
Today was a rough and painful day, tax day, that never used to have a huge impact on me, but now it is a bit depressing. Luckily I had agreed to go work at an author event for Powell’s tonight at a church downtown. I know, a church is an odd place to have a cookbook author event, but it was fun and it was a great excuse to dress up! I only wish I’d remembered to bring my little camera along for some church shots, instead I quickly shot some when I got home tonight so I could share these right away. Hopefully I’ll get some better shots done, at least of the white & red, but for now these’ll do just fine…
with a skirt or without...
Earlier today I did wear them around the office, under a pair off cut off jeans and I really liked that look, I’m sure to feature it here on another day so you can see what I mean. These are pretty much sheer so you should wear something over your bits & pieces, unless you want to show off your panties ~;)
I found them to be quite comfy and a nice complement to socks because I’m always on the lookout for shorter things to wear on my legs so I can show off my socks. At only $10 I think these are a great value!

    i would love to see a photo with the dress down and also with the cutoofs to see what they look like peeking out from the bottom.

    wowowwow… you look gorgeous!!! The look of those just make me wanna flamingo dance. Lovely!

    OH and… was just thinking that these would look awesome with the longer length black crinoline over them and a long black t-shirt or short dress top… like little bopeep gone goth. The possibilities for these cute ruffled leggings are endless.

    and in case you’re wondering, the author was Ruth Riechle, editor of Gourmet magazine, longtime food critc and author of several great foodie books. And yes, I’m pretty tired right now, it was kind of a wordy post that might not make as much sense as it did in my head, so now, off to bed with me!

    nah, makes fine sense… i bet these looked so cool under cutoffs! :) arrr!

    how is the waist on these? is it super tight or are they easily stretchy and scrunchable down to hip area? (does that make sense?)….and I love the look of the Hokkaido Stir up Leggings- but i cannot afford :(….on my dream list……
