Gap Leggings and Jeggings

This past weekend I went into Gap because I had a 40% off coupon (I found the cutest reversible navy cardigan for my sister's baby). Yes, I am already a crazy aunt and the baby isn't even here yet! Anyway I haven't been loving the womens collection recently but I decided to do some browsing. I've tried some other jeggings in the past but they were really just leggings and were not flattering at all!

I tried the black knit jeggings (1969 ponte five-pocket leggings-at my local store they were labeled "knit jeggings") and am hooked! I bought 2 pairs in black (2 different sizes though I wish I had bought 2 of the size that fit slightly better. Oh well!). Later in the day I was at another mall (wearing the pair I bought earlier!) and decided to buy the other color too (this store didn't have the black in the size I wanted). I don't usually wear green but I just love the way these fit! They seem to stretch out slightly/I needed to pull them up after walking around so definitely go for the smaller size if you aren't sure. I always say that if you find something you love then buy multiple!!!



I also bought the lightweight corduroy leggings. I wouldn't call these leggings. They are very thin and super comfy but I would just say lightweight corduroy. If you are tall: these run short. I will only wear these with boots (otherwise I look like my pants shrunk/don't fit).


I'm curious: yay or nay on jeggings? Have you tried these? Did you shop the Gap sale last weekend?

    Love the corduroy pants! I wish I had scooped up a pair last weekend! I bought a pair of their GapFit leggings instead!

    A while ago I bought the gap "leggings" that are made of stretchy dress pants material and no pockets in the back. I love them!! Gap has some really great stuff out and I've been looking at corduroy leggings for a few weeks now - I will have to check out theirs!

    I've heard good things about Gap leggings! I need a new pair, so perhaps I'll have to check them out.

    I don't have any jeggings, but now that you're raving about these from the Gap, I'd love to try them.

    The corduroy pair looks really nice. I'd love to get a classic black pair.

    Those look nice. I'm pretty picky about leggings, so maybe I will give these a try.

    Ok, so I JUST hopped on the jegging band wagon (target!). I have always steered clear, bc I dress preppy and classic, not trendy. So...how do you suggest wearing jeggings and still maintaining a classic style??? I need help!
