First, I would like to say that if there is a flashback to a fashion trend and you were around to see it, then there are a few things that you must keep in mind:
1) How old were you when this trend took place?
2) If you were 9 or younger you have to modify the current trend.
3) Was it a trend you originally followed?
4) If you followed if before just skip it this time around.
5) If you don't skip it, is it an appropriate trend for your current life?
Okay, once you have answered these questions and made yourself aware of the situation you have to make a choice--will you follow it or not follow it?
Now, one of the trends that have come back around is the trend of leggings/tights. I was around 12 or 13 when I saw this the first time. I didn't originally follow this trend and it can be appropriate for my current life. I am not a teenager so I will not wear it the same way that it was being worn in the 80's. Leggings are not to be worn like a regular pair of pants ladies. The rule that should not be ignored with leggings is that your choice on the top should come to about mid-thigh. You can play with layers! You can wear a t-shirt that comes to your hip but on top of that you should wear either a slouchy blazer, a boyfriend blazer (both belted at the waist) or a v-neck sweater that hits the correct spot.
Though this is not about the trend of leggings directly, you must put on shoes that are not sneakers or athletic shoes. You want to put on a pair of shoeties( shoe boots), a pair of riding boots, a pair of ankle boots or knee boots! Please no sneakers or athletic shoes of any sort.
