Organic leggings & jeggings

Leggings, and most recently jeggings, have become a main fixture in our wardrobe the past few years. They're comfortable all year round. They complete just about any outfit.

My fave pair happen to be my black jeggings I bought for $3 off the clearance rack from Wal-Mart. They're from the Max Azria Miley Cyrus line (don't judge me!), but, unfortunately,  they can't be categorized under the eco-fashion label. The bright side: they were sold at an eco-fashion friendly store. I should get props for that.

Some of these eco-fashion choices are a bit pricey, but sometimes we tend to overwear our leggings or jeggings, and maybe a few extra bucks can buy us a few extra months or years to spend with our beloved pants.

WARNING: Please don't buy see-through leggings or jeggings or any pants for that matter. Sorry, there are times when I still see pink undies through leggings even though the fashion offender wore a tunic that keeps rising up. Make sure the fabric is thick enough. Word to the wise.
