    Default what is with the leg warmers?

    Like half the girls where I work wear these now. The trend came suddenly and it's so weird! I could understand if it was cold or you had ugly ankles, but that's not usually the case.

    Is this happening everywhere?

    I've seen it in the fall/winter, & it was on a few dancers. It looked cute, the way they pulled it off. But yeah, it would make more sense wearing those in the winter not Spring. Whatever makes em money though.

    I have a few pairs that I wear at work and I luv 'em! But with the right outfit.l They look really cute with the plaid schoolgirl skirt.

    OMG I was gonna make a thread about this. I'd say 85% (no lie) of the girls at my club wear these things! For some girls, it's really cute and goes with said outfit...but for majority of them, they are only wearing them because all the other girls are wearing them.

    Looking at those things aggrevates the hell out of me. I could never wear them..but to each his own I guess

    Well, it took a few years, but they finally realized that leg warmers belong on the legs and not the arms (which was really popular here for whatever reason... ).

    About 1/2 the girls wear them at my work too. I bought a pair in white and a pair in black b/c I thought they were cute and I wore them in winter to keep warm. It looks good with certain outfits, usually the skimpier 2 pieces, as I like the extra coverage the leggings provide to your overall look. But mostly I wear them when I didn't shave my legs (same with fishnets and stockings) and also to hide my money wrapped up with a garter on my ankle.

    I noticed leg warmers on some girls at the Rhino out here in Vegas about 3-4 months ago.

    you know, I never thought about covering the money.

    That is such a good idea. I have it just dangling on my ankle because I hate purses....but it looks so ugly.

    I think they work in the same way that knee high boots can be sexy - it just kind of draws attention to the bare thighs... I don't have any myself, but I hear you can get cute ones at American Apparel.

    I've been wearing legwarmers for ages. I admit I was inspired by the Eric Prydz "call on me" dance video, but it gets me noticed. I wear mine with a booty short set so it's akin to an aerobic instructor wet-dream.

    ugh, i hate Uggs, i just don't see how they are cute at all. I don't wear leg warmers, not that i haven't wanted to, i just look so stupid in them(it's the same with capri pants..i'm just not made for them). But as for the leggings, i am tempted to buy some. I saw some really cute ones at the mall.

    Just talking about all of this is bring back memories of side ponytails and those things you used to tie your shirt into. Does anyone know what i'm talking about? I forgot the name of it...

    It's a good thing someone mentioned this.I've been wondering for a while now too.It looks cute on some girls,especially younger tiny ones,but it's weird for me too see them,after years and years of gowns and short dresses.Some of them even kind of pull them over the shoe so that you cannot even see much of it,just the tip of the heel and platform.I guess that's the fashion in some places nowadays,I wouldn't wear them though.
