With the holidays right around the corner, my calendar is starting to fill up fast. While the holidays can certainly be a stressful time of year with so much going on, I always try to remind myself how much fun they are too. From putting up Christmas decorations to holiday concerts and get-togethers; there seems to always be something exciting going on. The last thing I want to worry about is what to wear to all of these events. Unfortunately, no matter how many clothes I have, it’s inevitable for Phil to hear me shout, “I have nothing to wear” which usually happens right around the time he says, “we need to leave in five minutes.” Sound familiar to anyone? It’s always a toss up between a dress or pants and if I wear pants are jeans acceptable? Considering most of my jeans are that ripped/destroyed look, I would say most times jeans are just not ok for holiday events, but if you’re like me and live in a cold state this time of year, do you really want to brave the cold and go with bare legs (as my grandma would say) in a dress? That’s where these faux vegan leggings come in handy. I love that they look like leather, but are a lot less (under $100!) and they can easily be dressed up for a night out.
