Personal opinions aside, I think the best advice i could give you is to keep your money. Fashion-forward does not always mean fashionable. That said, if you're still bent on getting these, i cannot go without politely emphasizing the fact that yes, whatever you wear on top, it needs to cover your rump. Some people still don't get that. Spread the word. Also, with leggings, contrast is key..but complimentary contrast such as darker tones vs. light, tight vs baggy, even fabric textures. Steer clear of similar synthetic materials on top to avoid a sleepwear look. Keep away from weird patterns and bold colors. You'll get enough attention the way it is. I might wear a fitted jean jacket over it all too, just to give the look more structure and less i get dressed in the dark impression...keep all this in mind and you'll be good. happy shoppingggg 🙂) ..oh yea and pumps are a must. Maybe an oversized clutch/satchel..a stack of wrist bangles might be nice..lol..now that i think about it, it might not turn out that bad afterall 🙂
