I also must highly suggest though, Try to break away from them a bit in spring/summer...not because they aren't fabulous...but because there are SO many other fun options to explore this season. Show off your legs with some really different shoes... Make a statement with your shoes! Wear some new Low Strapped Mary Jane Pumps with tight knee shorts, or wear round toe heels with your capris! I have seen so many great shorts, skirts, and fun long dresses to wear around. Plus, if you kind of tuck the leggings away for now, then when fall comes rolling around...you'll have something you can pull out and switch it up with! *JuSt mY PErSonal PhilosoPhy this Spring! What do you all think girls?

Vera Wang's Black Leggings...
Yes, I am talking about the ubiquitous black leggings that we have all added as a staple to our fall and winter wardrobes.....The question is, Can we continue to wear them into spring and summer? My vote is absolutely! Keep them around by simply transforming them into spring wear. How? Just reinvent them and get creative! Maybe wear them a bit higher on the leg, sport some fun new pumps with them, strappy heels, or pretty flats. I would also recommend pairing them with metallics, light neutrals, and stick with a soft palette for spring. Sometimes black mixed with bold colors can look tacky in the spring, or perhaps...Eighties?!

I agree! I must admit I am a little over the leggings look for now. I think it's best for the fall and winter and I TOTALLY agree with you about the colors. If you are going to wear them, don't wear them with bright colors! Not only is it 80's, but it's a very young look too, I think.
I love the metallic idea, a good pairing for the season I hadn't thought of before. See, I knew you were a genius! Thanks for the Spring fashion inspiration - I have been feeling like a Schlumpadinka, lol. Now I say, bring on the pumps and shorts! (excepting the days I'm playing soccer with my 2 y-o, of course :)).
