New fad?

It's times like this that I really feel out of touch with fashion. I snapped this shot in a hurry while I was waiting for the light to change. This was a few days ago when the weather was still warm, but now it's gone cold on us; about time. Anyway, I have to admire the devil-may-care attitude this girl has.

This post goes out to Marie-Noyale of Larchmont Daily Photo, who posted a similar photo a short while ago right here.

For a minute I thought she had fallen asleep on one of our Florida beaches and burned her legs...

I suspect these leggings do keep a woman warm...

Great post, Bibi!

Leggings are really popular in Japan, too. But I don't know if I've seen one quite that bright :)

Marie-Noyale said...

I think yours is more daring!!!
Thank you for the nice link.
I wonder if she put "my"stockings above hers how it would look!!!!

Pink metallic legs. Well I wish I had the legs for those, I sure do!

Easy to follow in a crowd...
Do you follow tatoos too? lol

Chuck Pefley said...

Bibi, love the comments on these legs LOL!!
She certainly is coordinated! Nice catch.

So, do you follow tattoos, too?

Pat said...

Well, I have caught a few tattoos here and there, mostly in Seattle, to tell the truth, but most of the time, they're harder to sneak a photo of. I do have a good Gig Harbor one I got permission for....

I like her verve. Anyone remember the patterned tights that were big back in the '60s? (The principal of my school nicknamed me "Crazy Legs.") Fun!

Hilda said...

Leggings are very popular here (I've several myself) but matte, not shiny. Love her brown and pink combination. Quite young, I take it? Her entire outfit screams it. ;)

I'd say she has earned the title of Fashionista.

Oh, my, I must be so old (or it may be the flu I'm recovering from) but that photo just shouted: Brr! Cold!

Mmmm, rose barbie nacré, quel goût exquis !

What a great find. Don't worry bibi, if you're out of touch with THAT fashion you're not missing much :-)))

I really enjoyed the humorous Mixed-up mounting" post yesterday. Still laughing actually !!!

I thought that she had a terrible sunburn at first. I must admit that her style is tame when compared with my friends and me when I was a teen. Too bad she didn't have red or pink hair. :)

leggings are quite the fashion statement again this year in the fashion world but, you've got to be a younger person to pull it off. needless to say, i am not adopting this fashion piece in my wardrobe.
have a wonderful weekend bibi.

Mara said...

Not a look I will be sporting any time soon. Unless it is to a fancy dress party...

Gaelyn said...

I like the look. Reminds of the 60s mini skirts.

CROSS-CULTURE BREAKFAST

  Have been in India one week. I brought my hostess some ajvar, which she found goes very well on a chapati.
