Why the **** don't leggings fit me properly??

before anyone assumes i'm fat, i'm not, i'm a size 8. for some reason no matter what size or style of leggings I buy I get ****ing camel toe :angry: and my arse looks ****ing huge. I don't wear leggings with tops, I usually shove a dress on top but that's because I don't really have an option of just wearing leggings and a top (I wouldn't go out of the house with leggings and a top but it'd be nice to have the option of wearing it around the house).

I don't really know what to do, every other girl that wears leggings manages to look fine in them so why the hell is it not working for me?

if you look at the link and look at the women in leggings they look perfectly normal, no huge arse sticking out and no camel toe. I know the arse sticking out thing is just the way my body is and everyone's is different but what the **** is up with leggings looking weird on me?

Why on earth would that be a problem?

it's just the way your body is made. There's nothing wrong with it, there's nothing wrong with you; it's just one of those things

and the heavily doctored photographs of catalogue models should never be the people anyone has to compare themselves to

Let us decide if they look weird; post camel toe pls.

hahahaha no :colonhash:
Have you tried different leggings? I know me and my friends all have our own brand that we love and refuse to try another, for me it's George

I don't like like wearing leggings and just a top, so I have some vest tops from primark (only £2) and they're not too long but decent enough and I wear a black top with leggings and put my top over :smile:
Why hide your pins under some leggings? The time is now to show flesh and experiment. :flutter:

I've tried some from Primark, New Look, George and Internacionale. They all do the same. I don't want to have to spend loads of money on leggings only for me to not end up wearing them again apart from when i'm ill/not leaving the house.

and I agree with you. I wouldn't ever wear a short top with them. always something that covers my ass.

Hello again!

Bloody hell you sound stressed.. just wear a skirt on top?:colonhash: it can't be that much more uncomfortable if you do that, right?

I know nothing about wearing leggings so... :innocent:
