Where do you buy leggings from?

I bought this dress from Old Navy over the weekend:



I never wear stuff like this so it is new for me. I want to get a pair of leggings to wear with it, but I also new to this trend. Where do you buy nice, comfy leggings that are MM?

I bought some from Old Navy. I have a pair from last year that have held up great. Mine were $9.

My favorite are J.Crew. Not the cheapest leggings out there, but they're thick and the texture is nice and hey -- I've had them for three years so the cost per use isn't bad.

Though to be honest, I think leggings look odd under a dress and would go for tights instead.

I'd also wear tights instead of leggings with this dress.

But, to answer your question, Target and the Gap have inexpensive leggings. J Crew's and Nordstrom have nicer, but more expensive pairs. You can also try stores like Ross and TJ Maxx, but that might be hit or miss in your area.

I have a pair from ON that I love, but they aren't cotton, they're like a really, really thick tight. But I can't find them again and it makes me sad.

Are tights warm? I want to wear to work and my office is always *freezing*. I should have thought to look at Old Navy while I was there!

Depends on the tights -- some are warmer than others. Could you wear boots?

I bought a pair of reversible Spanx from Kohl's. They're great. $24 .... but very comfy.

I usually wear HUE brand from Macy's and I just found a ton of them at DSW for ~$10. The bigger stores have wider selections.

Another vote for wearing tights with the dress. Unless you're going to wear tall boots, in which case I guess it wouldn't really matter since you wouldn't be able to tell. But I think tights are warmer than just pantyhose since they are a bit thicker.

I wear leggings with a dress (I am right now!) but I also wear tall boots with it. Have I been doing this wrong?

The Limited has opaque tights that are warm.

Walmart - $5

This. I have like 3 pairs of black leggings. I love them.

But I think tights would look best with that dress.

Hmmm... don't own boots. Better start shopping!

Not wrong. I just personally prefer tights when I'm wearing a dress. Leggings just feel too much/extra/unnecessary. My leggings though are fairly thick and it doesn't seem as "smooth" as it does when I wear tights.
