With "collectible" leggings, how does that work? Do people buy them and not wear them? Do they keep them encased in plastic and displayed on a shelf? When people come over to visit, do they say, "and here is my delightful collection of Lularoe Leggings! Look, I have the very rare "Satanic Chihuahua" print! And rarer still, the "Stephen King's Worst Nightmare Clown" print! And this one? It's....well, I think it's the Seven Dwarfs riding in an airplane made of Cheetos...or something like that...but it's really super rare! NO YOU CAN'T TRY THEM ON!!" Hahahahaha! Oh yeah, "here's my Luluroe collection. If I open them, they'll lose 1/2 their value. If I dare actually WEAR a pair, they'll shred and my ass will be hanging out for all to see. I hope I remembered to put on underwear..." 8 Link to comment

mamey2422 March 17, 2017 Share March 17, 2017 Meri has mentioned on social media the wait to join her LLR Facebook group is very long. Does anyone know why? What is the approval process? You would think she would want her potential customer group to be as large as possible. 1 Link to comment
ginger90 March 17, 2017 Share March 17, 2017 I think the wait crap is bull. There probably aren't many wanting to join. Once you have, a list of new members is available to view. If she says there's a waiting list, it's either because she's trying to sell how great the group is, or she doesn't want current members to know there aren't more people jumping in. That's my take on it. 5 Link to comment

I saw a girl wearing what had to be LulaRoe leggings on the bus today. Purple with a print of what looked like the decapitated head of a screeching cat all over it.

DakotaJustice March 23, 2017 Share March 23, 2017 What's realty awful to me is how much that outfit (for lack of a better term) costs. $25 for leggings that should cost $6-10, $36 for a shirt that you could probably pick up at old Navy or H&M for $12-15, and $70 for a duster which I've seen similar at H&M for $15. 6 Link to comment

TurtlePower March 24, 2017 Share March 24, 2017 13 minutes ago, lma said: I just saw someone downstairs at a hotel (I'm traveling) who appeared to be wearing LLR. She looked about middle age and was wearing teal leggings and a colorful flared tunic (with teal in it). I thought she looked fine, but nothing outstanding in a good or bad way. What's crazy to me is that people pay so much money for the LLR name. I promise you can recreate the same look (and probably similar quality) from even Walmart. LLR has to be - for the most part - suburban mom clique attire. To be "cool," you must wear LLR. How very juvenile ... Having said that, I can see why some women like it, though. I wear dusters (bathrobes!) with skinny jeans often. I like the look, so I actually get that. What I'll never get is leggings on any and every body and especially the ridiculous prints that women are fighting over just so they can be the star of the neighborhood clique. Walmart clothes--even though they're not high quality--are probably less likely to rip when you put them on which is sad 'cause as you said, for the prices people pay for LLR the tights damn well should not rip. I've never noticed the suburban mom LLR thing. I tend to do my own thing clothes-wise so I'd never fit in........love my Miss Me blingy jeans and heels or cowboy boots but I'll be on the lookout today for LLR-ers. 1 Link to comment
Hockeymom March 24, 2017 Share March 24, 2017 I was at a monthly dinner last night and one of the women was definitely wearing LLR leggins. I honestly didn't notice the top because it was nondescript. The leggins jumped out at me went we got up to leave. What I noticed first was how chubby she looked. Then I noticed the pattern. Gah! This is a youngish person who always looked fit to me before. During these dinners, I would marvel at how she could eat so much and still look so good. She looked exactly the same sitting at the table, so I don't think she gained any significant weight. These leggings, and the decision to wear them as pants, didn't do her any favors. Might as well have been patterned panty hose. 2 Link to comment

Leggings should never be worn so that everything is displayed to the public. They need to be worn with a long top or covering There are whole websites with some pretty horrendous pictures of women who do not seem to know that seeing the "camel toe" in your crotch (see idiot in gray leggings below) is appropriate or acceptable. Add some obscene LLR print and it becomes doubly nauseating. 10 Link to comment
Absolom March 25, 2017 Share March 25, 2017 Leggings were designed to be worn with short dresses, tunic tops, or very long sweaters. They are too stretchy and too thin to be used as regular pants and will show a lot more than most people want to reveal if worn as regular pants. Panty lines, camel toes, plus the pattern on underwear and your semi-bare rear end showing through are all possibilities if treating thin knit material only slightly heavier than tights as real pants. I do wear leggings even at my age but only with mid thigh or longer tops because no one needs to see the upper thighs on a retiree. 5 Link to comment

I've been seeing this in a few posts (about not wearing leggings as pants). Since I'm a man, clothing is very simple: If it goes on your legs, it's pants or shorts; and if it goes on your torso, it's a shirt. So, I have to ask: How do you wear leggings as not pants? They extend nearly the full length of the leg. Wouldn't that make them pants? And if they weren't meant to be seen, wouldn't that make them underwear? And if so, why would people care as much about what they look like? Thank you for helping the simpler gender to understand the complex issues you face in your day-to-day lives. Edited to add: If I had been a little more patient, I would have seen @Kohola3's and @Absolom's posts before posting mine. That said, I'm going to leave mine up because it's here now. But my questions have been answered. Thank you, @Kohola3 and @Absolom! Edited March 25, 2017 by MrSmith 4 Link to comment

VedaPierce March 25, 2017 Share March 25, 2017 (edited) My biggest objection to Lular is that the clothes look CHEAP. They look poorly made, wrinkly, raggedy, untailored, just cheap. I don't think I've ever seen one cute outfit that I would want to replicate. Love the way the New York housewives dress and ladies of London, they look expensive, fine fabrics/cuts --- just the total opposite of Meri's rags. (And ironically, her cheap crap is so overpriced for Walmart quality. ) I would never want to wear what she would wear. She has horrible taste. Bad taste in decor, bad taste in men, bad taste in makeup, bad taste clothes. Edited March 25, 2017 by VedaPierce 4 Link to comment
AZChristian March 25, 2017 Share March 25, 2017 (edited) Scenarios like that scream "I live alone so no one told me my underwear was hanging out." ETA - the only LLR coordinated outfit I saw in real life was on a recent cruise. A non-thin woman in her 50s was in a leggings and top "set" that looked like it should have had Garanimal labels on it. Edited March 25, 2017 by AZChristian 3 Link to comment
