The World of Jeggings.

Jeggings (denim leggings) are HUGE right now.  I know most women out there pick up a pair of jeggings in the stores and say to themselves: "hell no!"  I know this because I was one of those women, so was my mom.

Putting my skepticism aside, I finally gave in and tried on a few pairs.  And by a few, I mean 10.  Let me tell you, if you haven't tried a pair yet take Nike's slogan and JUST DO IT!  I advise you to try on all different brands, washes, and sizes.  These days I've been rocking size 26/27 in denim.  At first I went straight for 27's because when you hold a pair of jeggings up, they look like they're made for toddlers!  You could imagine my delight when I realized I needed to size down.

I tried on jeggings in store by brands such as 7 for all mankind, Citizens, and J Brand.  I finally found a pair that fit my body type perfectly and proceeded to go home and find them online for a cheaper price.  My dream jeggings were from Citizens of Humanity, one of my top denim brands.  They're the Avedon Slick Skinny in Azure wash, shown for purchase here.  I also ordered the Absolute wash shown here.  This wash was not very forgiving on my legs at all.  Still very comfortable but they weren't for me.  What makes the Azure wash so comfortable and slimming is mostly the material they're made with.  Any stretchy jeans that have more synthetic materials than cotton such as rayon, spandex, cupro, or lycra, are going to be soft, stretchy, and comfortable.

Sidenote--> By the way, this website Revolve Clothing is one of my favorites for ordering jeans online.  There's free 2-day shipping, free return shipping, no tax (in most states I believe), and I can always find a coupon code.

My original idea was to get these to wear tucked into boots.  I had a feeling that I wouldn't enjoy the skin tight look from my hips all the way down to my ankle.  But to my disbelief, I absolutely picture myself rocking these with a nice tunic and pumps to go out at night.  Besides the fact that these jeans surprised the hell out of me at being super slimming, they are SO COMFORTABLE.  I'm telling you I could take a nap in these bad boys.  They're unbelievable.
