Super Long Sheer Leggings
These Super Long Sheer Leggings are a new favorite for me. Out of the package these babies are over 65 inches long! I’m 5′2″ and I can hold the waist band higher than my head and the ends still pile up on the floor. They are that long. Which means oodles of folds can be created down the leg. The easiest way to get them on is to bunch it all up on your hand, then slip it on the foot, pulling it over the heel. I mention this because at first I tried to pull these on like a sock and quickly realized that way would take forever to get on. I also got it snagged on my toenails. oops! I had fun adjusting all the wrinkles and although I was fearfull that I had run them when they got caught on my nails, it didn’t make a run at all. There were a few tiny horizontal lines from that {forgot what they’re called} but since there’s so many folds, they never even showed.
I think these Super Long Sheer Leggings look really great and they’re thin enough to dress up your legs in the summertime without heating you up. The cuff is a lettuced ruffle hem which is cute to show off with sandals or pumps. I also thought the texture would look neat over a contrasting stripe.
Shown here over Music Legs’ Opaque Vertical Stripes which I was hesitant to buy, fearing that the seams where the colours are sewn together would be big and bulky and end up giving me blisters. I was happily surprised at how thin the seams actually are, and have never even felt the seams in my shoes. The only thing I don’t like on these is that the black is a bit see through, instead of a strong deep black. It doesn’t detract from their fun factor any. I’m a huge fan of vertical stripes instead of horizontal stripes. {Takes all kinds huh?} lol. The Opaque Vertical Stripes come in black & white, black & neon pink, or black & red combinations at $9.00 a pair. Tube style feet and they stay up OTK really well too. ooo! another two-fer review from me! :)

Okay I have a question. Since you don’t have a wishlist feature, could I just add all the items that I want to my shopping bag instead? Or would I be forced to buy them?

mary - you can always use a wishlist such as thethingsiwant.com - it lets you add things from all over the internet.
