    If you want to look like a whore, sure, wear them.
    If you do wear them, make sure you have a longer top that actually covers your ass otherwise you might as well walk about in underwear.

    If someone ten years ago had said that the fashion in 2011 will basically be leggings and tunics like in the Middle Ages I would not have believed it.

    Mind you, it was predicted by Buck Rogers:

    Those leggins aren't really 'wet look', more sheer. I think they look OK if you've got the legs for it.

    I've never really liked wet look leggings, they just seemed tacky but then I saw these photos and I actually quite want to buy some.

    What do you think of wet look leggings?
    Where can I buy some good quality ones?
    Do you wear them?

    n.b. These are to wear with tunics/short dresses, not short tops that don't cover my bum. I am NOT a fan of Lauren Goodger or the Daily Mail.



    I think they look really cheap and tacky. I don't even think those phots look good at all. The shine in all the wrong places and she looks like an 80s band reject with the ott make up (Although the thread isn't about that!). Just don't do it.

    I think that if anybody is using an ex Big Brother housemate as a style icon then they maybe need to re-evaluate their style.
    As I explained, I am not a fan of Lauren Goodger or her style. I simply quite liked a pair of leggings in a couple of photos.

    Black leggings are pretty generic, hardly a "style"

    As I explained in the OP, these are not intended to wear with tops that don't cover my bum.

    How are leggings for whores? Lol

    I just love the "I remembered to wear my sheer tights but forgot to put on my skirt" look. (y)

    By 'wet look' you mean 'made of nylon', and no, Nylon has always been (and will always be) a very cheap material for clothesmakers. Anything made from it will look similarly bargain-bucket.

    Nothing wrong with clothes being cheap, but Nylon leggings are something you'd buy from woolies (if they were still around!)

    I'm pretty sure the ones in the picture are spandex rather than 'wet look'.

    If you're after wet look though I'd say H&M. Theirs are less plasticy and more rubbery than Topshop's.

    They're not really the wet look ones are they?

    Wet look look more.. Wet.

    They're more shiny.

    If you're not a fan of ebay then you can get them here:

    They seem to be leggings designed more for going out, the whole club look than something for day to day wear.

    I like wet look leggings but the picture you posted, well they're not wet look, they're just sheer and shiny. Not a good look.

    Well, if a girl wore that i'd automatically assume she's a slut. If she is hot then i would talk to her with only one goal in mind. Simple, if you dress like a slut expect to get treated like one, it looks reminiscent of a pvc assemble from a throwback to 90's European videotape pornography.

    Someone might have already posted this, but american apparel's disco pants are amazing! Expensive, yes. ...but amazing, none-the-less.

    they look like 'leotard material' nylon lycra rather than wet look with some kind of coats that look almost rubbery
