<p>I like those EPTR- I’m such a wimp with heels though - I know those aren’t very high, but still high for me!!!</p>
<p>Message 255 has the details for all the stuff I bought.</p>
<p>CF, thank you for the reviews! I looked up the Emmett dress (Terry Bicycles did not have the XS which is what I think I would need), and Zappos sells it in both the stripe and solid black! Ordered. Also, the brand makes other cute tunic-length dresses that could go well with leggings (sold at 6pm and other sites in addition to Zappos).</p>
<p>Abasket, they are SOOOOOO comfortable. I have a bunion on one foot and flat feet and I still didn’t even have to break them in. They are the softest leather which makes the upper very flexible.</p>
<p>If I could marry a shoe, it would be this one!</p>
<p>Our Costco just got the Maggie M leggings in stock. The siz medium corresponds to the 6 Calvin Klein jeggings and jeans.</p>
<p>They had embroidered and be-sequined tops on clearance for $4.97. Bought one on a whim and it looks great with the jeggings.</p>
<p>Found a couple of things that might work with leggings yesterday on an unexpected (to my credit card) trip through TJMaxx. </p>
<p>First, a shorter black/white print dress - knit, short sleeves - I will probably wear a colored cardigan with it to bring in some color. Super comfortable, appropriate for work, would look good with flats or boots. Dress has a slight flare. Definitely will be good with tights, have to try it on with leggings.</p>
<p>Then, at the last minute I spied a short skirt - red,cranberry,rose colored tweed - LOVE IT! Nicely lined and has two fake “pocket” zippers on the front - kind of this type of style:

Think it will go great with either my black or charcoal grey tights. </p>
<p>I think I need to read this thread from the beginning again and really study all the links to the dresses/tops you all have listed!</p>
<p>Wowser, that skirt is 16" long. Cute, but super, super short. It would barely cover my rear end. 25" still hits above my knees and is about as short as I dare go with a skirt. I’m 5’9" so I’d have to be 5 ft. tall to wear that skirt comfortably tights or not tights.</p>
<p>I would never wear this skirt without tights! I’m 5’6-5’7 and I tend to wear skirts/pants lower on my waist - not AT the waist - it’s really not that short. I would say it falls a couple of inches above my knee. My bum is DEFINITELY covered!</p>
<p>I bought the Wooly Bully. It is short; it falls about 4" above the center of my kneecap. I would never ever wear it without tights.</p>
<p>For normal wear, I would never wear tights without a skirt, dress or tunic over them. But I’m a cyclist: tights with nothing over them is what I wear all winter for riding. So when I tried on a pair of leggings, it felt like exactly what I wear all the time.</p>
<p>If you want to buy this dress, size down. Consider sizing down by two sizes if you want it to fit as shown.

<p>Would like to find a nice button up shirt tunic similar to this one in a pretty color…I saw a lady (of a certain age!) wearing a purple one with black leggings and she looked great. It was long enough and she had jazzed it up with a scarf–made for a good, classic look. Wondering if anybody has seen one lately.</p>
<p>Nice tops, Panhandlelegal, but as shown, they don’t look long enough to cover the behind. Beware! Tops of that styling, but tunic length, would make a good look I’d say.</p>
<p>I would not buy a cotton shirt to be worn as a tunic. Cotton wrinkles, so the outfit could very easily turn from chic to frumpy.</p>
<p>Here is a shirt-like top that could work with a scarf and a belt:</p>

<p>I love that dress, Cardinal.</p>
<p>Me too! MOfWC, you will need an XS for sure. Zappos has it in stock. Here is another cosy-looking topper for leggings:</p>

<p>This one is good looking too. Not the color for me, but it looks like a terrific dress:</p>

<p>I’m a sucker for a hooded top - I’d like that dress but in a different color. Doesn’t really look like plum???</p>
<p>I like that Mountain Hardware dress. Once again CC is costing me money. I might try the Emmett dress too!</p>
<p>abasket, I could not justify spending $110 on a hoodie, so I can’t say how it looks IRL. It does come in other colors (navy-ish and white - talk about washing it :eek:).</p>
