Remember when you were a kid and your parents put you in those in those stretchy pants with inexplicable stirrups? They've been reincarnated as stirrup leggings. Now you can buy stirrup leggings from Juicy Couture, Citizens of Humanity and other top designers for upwards of $100. Of course, cheaper versions will surely hit American Apparel and Forever 21.
I can see them paired with an edgy tunic or leather jacket, but it's only a matter of time until neon stirrup leggings make an appearance. With the right heels, stirrup leggings could work. However, who is really going to notice the extra bit of fabric at the bottom of your leggings when they're jammed into a shoe?
