Warm Welcome
Plush Legwear
In the material world, silk, cashmere, and cotton are the popular girls. And they’ve been picking on fleece for years.
But like most ugly ducklings, the outcast fabric grew up into a beautiful swan in the form of Plush Legwear.
Designer Jennifer Kim found a way to make fleece’s main strength (warmth) shine while keeping its mocked aesthetic under wraps. Tights, leggings, knee- and thigh-highs, hats, and arm warmers are all made of fleece-lined cotton, poly, or spandex, which means they are cozy, comfy, and stylish.
No, the fleece does not add inches to your thighs, miraculously, and they even braved a recent snowstorm brilliantly.
Scratchy wool tights be damned. Expensive pilling cashmere numbers? Enjoy the outcast.
A new queen has been crowned.

Microfiber, girls, go for microfiber. Warm, slimming, totally opaque, cheap. The best black tights eva.

They are at W the Store (in the W on Lakeshore) for $35. Plus, local customers can sign up to get a 20% discount.

I loved the idea of this product and am soooo disappointed that the leggings only come in small and medium! What about us larger lovelies?

I was lovin' this product and about to buy 2 items. When I went on the web site this morning they cost $35. Went back later to buy them and they raised all of their prices within a few hours! So slimy.

These are the best! They sell them at La Petite Coquette in NYC (www.thelittleflirt.com). You get free shipping if you spend over $100. They're their own unique thing (but I think better than LnA) - much cheaper and so warm and soft.
