It's not hard to find since I'm tall so most dresses don't hit my knee's anymore. But I love that I'm seeing more stores carry "tunics" which are generally thigh length anyhow.<br /> In the summer my go-to outfits are generally short dresses and capri-length leggings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-714538 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 16:24:03 +0000 LovelyPlum 714538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love this! Very cute shirts. I follow the crotch rule and am usually more comfortable with the bum rule as well. I've been pairing some over cute flowy (but in my opinion, too short) Old Navy dresses that easily double as long tunics. Seriously, yay leggings! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-714518 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 16:07:03 +0000 Mrs. Pen 714518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ps sorry the pics aren't the greatest! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-714506 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 15:56:09 +0000 Mrs. Pen 714506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just wanted to share my finds. I stopped at Nordstrom rack today and they had so many awesome shirts that are long enough to wear with leggings. My rule, like autumn love, is that they must cover crotch but ALSO cover bum!!</p> <p>So I found this white one first that is like the VS one I posted, it is a white tee, long and ruched so it hugs the hips and bum, and it is the perfect length for layering under sweaters etc. </p> <p>Next I found these two silk-like tops (polyester) that also cover the bum. Super cute!! I love them and amazingly enough DH did too and he's not a fan of leggings in general. Oh and all three of these tops come in multiple colors. </p> [attach=1597/13/ml9jhm.450x600.image.jpg] [attach=1597/13/ml9jho.450x600.image.jpg] [attach=1597/13/ml9jhq.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699766 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 15:00:20 +0000 immabeetoo 699766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: thanks for those links! I'm going to check them out when I get On my computer.

We're strictly business/business casual (but no jeans) here. I do sneak leggings under long tunic dresses that hit at or just above my knees. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699609 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 14:24:55 +0000 Bao 699609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like the look of the second outfit, so cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699537 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 14:01:19 +0000 Mrs. Pen 699537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For anyone interested I found these tops:</p> <p>Nordstrom drapey top</p> <p>Tildon tunic</p> <p>chambray from nordstrom </p> [attach=1597/13/mkya67.350x537._7843468.jpg] [attach=1597/13/mkya69.391x600._7700162.jpg] [attach=1597/13/mkya6a.350x537._7645531.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699525 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 13:58:10 +0000 Mrs. Pen 699525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: oh awesome thanks - I'll read through the thread :) sorry I posted the same thing without checking first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699264 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 12:55:15 +0000 Foodnerd81 699264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here's my post about this-- some people posted cute outfit pictures: <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-leggings-fave-leggings-outfits#post-407486" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-leggings-fave-leggings-outfits#post-407486</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699258 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 12:53:19 +0000 Foodnerd81 699258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I posted a thread about this around Thanksgiving-- if I can find it I'll post the link.</p> <p>I follow the 'top must cover crotch and bum' rule, especially for the office. I have some maternity tank tops that i think will cut it, post baby, but we'll see. I also like a really long loose cardigan open over the long top. I still have a hard time finding the right tops though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699024 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 11:48:28 +0000 tysonja 699024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i find it hard too, so i often just wear short dresses with leggings.... kind of best of both worlds. i'd never wear them without leggings (way to short!), but they are definitely longer than some tunics and cover my bum and crotch. </p> <p>usually just cheapie stuff from h+m, f21, etc. all their dresses are too short for real life wear, anyway :) american eagle too, but i dont consider that cheapie hhaha :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699014 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 11:46:24 +0000 autumnlove 699014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I would follow the crotch rule too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699003 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 11:42:32 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 699003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh great thread! I can never find shirts long enough either! I have one kind of tunic like thing, but it is more of a dress that I wear with leggings. The rest of my stuff is pretty casual. Hope people post some great ideas here :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-699001 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 11:42:09 +0000 mrskc 699001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The maternity tanks from Target are super long and cover my butt. I wear those with leggings with a long cardi or a chambray top. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-698993 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 11:39:14 +0000 looch 698993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like a drawstring waist dress with leggings, the capri ones. I am on the hunt for one for summer.</p> <p>I don't wear leggings as pants, but I do have several pairs of skinny cords and jeans. My rule is anything is fine on top as long as it covers the crotch. I do a lot of long tanks with cardigans on top. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/outfits-with-leggings#post-698990 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 11:37:42 +0000 Mrs. Pen 698990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So my business casual office allows leggings - who would've thought! Here I am wearing dress pants with a blouse and cardi and my lead who is training me in, is wearing leggings, a long tshirt and sweater with boots. </p> <p>I need some style inspiration. I have leggings and a few different pairs of boots but I can never find shirts long enough that aren't dresses to wear with leggings. I was thinking of buying some of these from VS and pairing with some open cardigans... Any other ideas?</p> <p>(tunics from VS: <a href="http://www.victoriassecret.com/clothing/2-for-40-tunics-leggings-and-skirts)" rel="nofollow">http://www.victoriassecret.com/clothing/2-for-40-tunics-leggings-and-skirts)</a></p> <p>*Post pics of your fav outfits with leggings!</p> <p>[attach=1597/13/mky3iu.449x600.37606eb7317b6a6603e769cbbd03453d.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1597/13/mky3iw.600x506.e041b4c502d687f8dc29f56b862f00d8.jpg] </p>
