Say it isn't so

God help us. Leggings are coming back in this season. Is it possible to make them fashionable? Since I always try to look at things in a positive way, here's my spin on leggings.

With leggings comes longer tops to cover the bum, right? With longer tops, comes a fashion trend turn-around for our young girls! Get what I mean? If you don't agree with me, feel free to move on to the next post. But I think most moms would agree the trend of tight and very short shirts is out-of-hand. We don't care to see little girls' mid-rifs and "muffin tops." And more importantly (for me), we don't care to have boys looking at girls in those clothes. So, I think the time has come when long tops will be "in" again and crop-crop tops will be "out." Am I thankful leggings are back in for that reason? No, I'm just trying to turn lemons into lemonade!

However, whether you're into leggings or not, here are a few cute sweaters from Nordstrom to cover the bum.
