It has been a few weeks since I have had any outfit posts up on the blog. The weather has not been cooperating. It has been rainy, cold, rainy and cold, and well, just blah! The weather has been blah! It has been a while since the sun has shone for four days in a row, and since last Friday I have been enjoying every minute of it!
So here I have an outfit post with a little something extra thrown in for you all today. I am going to give my very own review of these nice, bright yellow leggings just to be different. (Apologies to my readers who really could care less about yellow, stretchy, pant-like clothing.)
About a month ago, I had an offer from Izzara Boutique in my Facebook feed for a free pair of leggings – free minus the shipping cost. Okay, $7- ish isn’t a bad price for a good pair of leggings. I thought, why not? I ordered them and had a choice between colors – now I don’t remember what the choices were – but since I am transitioning to a brighter wardrobe, remember, I picked yellow, and yellow they are!
Running the risk of looking slightly like a bumble bee, I paired the leggings with black. At least half of my outfit was bright! With this pair, I have three, true pairs of leggings. (I am not including my gym / ballet attire in the legging category.)
As far as leggings go, these are comfortable. I like the brightness and the feel of the material, plus they are thick, great for slightly cooler days than today. My only complaint would be that they are one size fits all. So, shortly after putting them on, they got a bit loose around the knees. Not so much that it is bothersome, but that would have to be my only complaint. And even though they are one size, the waist is very comfortable. Not the slightest bit too loose there. I was also very happy with the length. I have one pair that are too long, another pair that are too short, but these are just right!
Overall, not bad for the price – they were technically free, and even if they weren’t, I would have paid the actual $16.99 for them. They are a great, sturdy pair of leggings!
Now, suggestions on what colors to wear with yellow, other than black…

Navy blur or a plum or burgandy might work brown would for sure. maybe a print with a little yellow in it. They look nice on you.

I wonder how navy would look with those? I tend to wear navy in place of any black (possibly because I started my wardrobe at Abercrombie, where they don’t have black lol). Like Lycly suggested, florals would be really cute and spring-y.

Navy is one of the colors I don’t have anything in. I am in favor of finding something navy, it would go great with the yellow!

I love the yellow!! When it gets warmer you could pair them with a white tunic, or if you are feeling really colorful even green or pink! I also think florals look wonderful with yellow. 🙂

You are right, green and florals would go very well – and even white! I happen to have all three of those colors stashed away in my closet, somewhere. 😉 I am really looking forward to bringing out the spring wardrobe!
