Fashion do or don't

I've been thinking of getting a pair of leggings. Nothing fancy, just plain black leggings. I don't have long skinny legs like these. I would wear a long shirt with it. Any ideas on what to wear with them?

I've also started getting into vests. I wore them in the early 90's & finally got rid of all of them a year or 2 ago (I had them packed away in totes), but now I'm liking them again. Are they a do or a don't? I like this 1 below from Aerie, but it's $60. I don't think I like it that much. I'm hoping it will go on sale. They also have black. If I don't get this 1, I will have to keep looking for the perfect 1, because I don't see too many that I like.
Yes or no?

I have seen a lot of vests lately and wear my down vest every year! As for the leggings...I haven't worn them since my junior year in h.s., 1991! I'm thinking of getting a pair too and wearing it with a tunic type shirt. I say, go for it!

Yes do the leggings !! you can do so much with then a long cozy sweater and some boots or a pretty long crisp white shirt with ballet flats or even kick it up with heels and a cool shirt and a leather jacket ! but anyway you decide they are comfy !! and the vest i have a white one i love it !!Please post if you get some with a pic !!

I see a lot of people wearing vests around here so I'd say they're a do. I used to have to wear one every Friday at my old job. I tossed it though because it had the company logo on it and I knew I'd never wear it again.

Go for the leggings. You could wear them with a dress that might be too short for winter or a long shirt. I love the vests. I wish I was confident enough to wear one.

I can't personally pull of leggings. I'm short and have an oddly shaped ass.

The vests, however, I do! I wish I had the guts to do white, though. You go right ahead for all of us that fear for spaghetti sauce and ketchup!

I love both ideas. I wear leggings myself because they're so comfortable!
