    Whatwhatwahtareyoudoing says:
Leggings have popped up in the American fashion conscious for decades.  We wore them with nylon Olivia Newton John thongs in the 80s.  We wore them with Tweety Bird t-shirts and oversized Hanes sweatshirts in the 90s.  And we saw the peak of their fashion greatness in the 2000s, pairing them with tunics, vintage t-shirts, and everything in between.  But with power comes great responsibility.  If you are going to rock the leggings, you have to do it RIGHT!
First, NO WHITE LEGGINGS!  Even for a teeny little thing like her, white leggings are a no-no.  Who in their right minds would want a spotlight shining down on their ham hocks?  Not me, I’ll tell you that.
Second, those leggings better be to the ankle or LONGER!  Anything shorter cuts off the line of the leg!  Ever wonder why you don’t see pedal pushers on the runways?  They aren’t flattering, that’s why!  
Thirdly… there is no third rule!
This sassy sister is adorable and has a figure to DIE for!  
So how to we salvage this outfit?  Remove white, mid-calf leggings.  Donate to a nearby bonfire to provide warmth for wild animals and s’mores kindling for Girl Scout campers.  Return to closet.  Slip on a fierce pair of dark denim skinny jeans.  Top with a cropped navy blue blazer.  Roll the sleeves up for a casual and fun new take on a top otherwise ruined by unnecessary leggings!
