To me, there is ONLY one place right now - MINT VELVET. Before you cry that it's a higher price bracket than some other high street shops then pay attention .... £15 only!
Last year, a friend and I both tried them on. She's a gorgeous size 14 and I'm a size 10. Both of us loved them. They are kind of suck you in type of leggings so they take a little while to get on and hoik up but it's worth it - I promise you, these are MAGIC leggings!
I adore the ruched bottom to them which makes them pretty enough to wear with sandals/ankle boots/trainers.
I love them styled here
I wasn't meaning to do a post on Mint Velvet but I got sucked in and OH MY .. yet again, they make gorgeous clothes/shoes/accessories that I desire/need/lust/want/etc
Black dress - I can't tell you how much I love this look
So back to the leggings which are RIDICULOUSLY cheap for Mint Velvet.
Where do you buy your leggings? I'm off to MV to buy black and grey!

Sold! Black ones would be perfect with my knee high boots and like you I adore MV clothes (and I want that bag!) Thanks for the tip off x
ReplyDeleteThey are FANTASTIC! Perfect for all year round wearing.
DeleteI have grey and they are excellent although I haven't worn mine for ages (this may change after rediscovering my brown ones at the weekend). They aren't over stretchy and so don't give very much so if inbetween sizes don't worry about going up x
ReplyDeleteAgreed, if in doubt, go up a size!
DeleteI only really wear leggings for work with my beauty tunic and always get them from Next but I might invest in these to wear with boots this winter, will make a change from jeans and jeggings so thanks for the heads up! x
ReplyDeleteI am loving wearing leggings! Especially in the winter with long boots and a tunic to hide the Winter bloat!
DeleteI like the sound of these, I'll be taking a look asap! Fab, fab bag too :)
ReplyDeleteThat bag NEEDS to be mine - I cannot take my eyes off it!
DeleteCan you reccommend somewhere to get navy ones? Would defo buy these in mint velvet. That dress is gorgeous as well. A good length for us tallies too!
ReplyDeleteNavy blue ones can be found (but haven't tried them on)

Gosh....the leggings seem to be good to true! £15 is amazing for such good quality legging! Thanks for bringing these to my attention :0) xx
ReplyDeleteI love MV and these look fab! I usually buy mine from Next or M&S. Lynne x
ReplyDeleteI bought a pair of these last month, love love love them, especially the mid rise waist!! Oh that bag is too tempting.
ReplyDeleteThat pony skin bag - LOVE! I always used to get mine from Topshop but I've not bought any for years now. I guess testament that they stand the test of time x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous jumpsuit, such a good 40th birthday outfit! I've worn my (Mint velvet) one to a 40th and to a ball this summer!
ReplyDeleteA x
I love the black dress & the shopper! I love leggings on everyone else but just hate them on me! Ax
ReplyDeleteThis is really good to know, I am always looking out for the perfect leggings. I used to like Sainsbury's ones and then they made them a lower fit on the hips and they just fall down on me. Will try these leggings next time I'm in House of Fraser, thanks for the tip! P x
