Sort of.
They were super cheap so I should have known.
They are snug and then flare at the bottom.
When I realized the error of my ways, I almost took them back but it wasn't really worth the effort because they were like $14. But they were too long and looked even more ridiculous rolled up like this.
But, since I don't have any respect for jeggings, I couldn't bring myself to hem them.
They were so long, they needed to be rolled up twice and they weren't staying rolled because of the flare, so I had no choice but to hem them.
And now I think they might be a little short, so I might take them out and redo them. Or, I might never wear them in public so who will care?
I'm not kidding anyone. I will obviously wear them in public because they are easy to wear and comfortable, right?
But, I think I need a belt because they keep slipping down.
Who wears jeggings with a belt??
Who hems jeggings?
And who hems them with gold thread?
That's right, gold! I've had this gold thread on a bobbin for YEARS and never find a use for it. When I tried to find the color that would match the topstitching on these high quality pants, I didn't have anything close.
See that extra pocket detail there, and the grommet? See how I might have thought they were real jeans?
After this fashion faux pas, it's all downhill. Stay tuned for the mumus!

gold thread is better than what some people do....as in staples. I love the jeggings
ReplyDeleteOh my :) I guess, since the price was right,and they are comfortable, it will work. Whenever the waist slips of my pants, I squeeze together the sides (on the inside) until they feel tight, then I pin and stitch them (again on the inside). It usually works out well enough. You are right, though. A belt would be a challenge to pull off with jeggings.
