When I spotted this image on Gabby’s post last month about wearing black on black, I immediately began searching for a pair of shiny black leggings. I’ve seen them styled really edgy which I wasn’t sold on, but this casual image above was actually what convinced me to buy a pair. I like the touch of rock star in it, and I feel a tiny bit like a rock star in them.

When I was in NYC a couple weeks ago for a styling event I wore them with red bensimons, a chunky sweater (similar), and a chambray shirt underneath.

Is this a trend that I’ll look back on in a few years and cringe at? Ok, maybe; but in the meantime I have a huge crush on my shiny black leggings!

PS I love the pair I bought from Asos here (only $28!)

What do you think of this trend?
