Jean Skirts?
Do you think that lighter or darker skirts will be in next season? And what about leggings?

STEP AWAY FROM THE LEGGINGS. Unless it is 1985, and you are a jazzercise instructor, there is no good reason for the reckless use of spandex legwear.
Also, I think dark denim always looks better than light.

Agreed on both parts. And for most schools' rushes, it should still be pretty warm, and you would die in leggings and a skirt.
When someone says light denim, I can't help thinking of acid-washed and the almost-white jeans of the 80's. JUST SAY NO.
Dark denim is much more flattering and attractive.

Ohh... I hate to break this to everyone out there.. but leggings are going to be the "in" look this fall. Yep.. everything that is old is new again. I've already seen them being pushed in the Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdales fall catalogs.

And yes.. "Flashdance" sweatshirts and sweaters are back in as well. Just thank goodness they horrid padded shoulders aren't back!

And it's probably still not appropriate for rush, unless it's more of a later in the fall rush.

WTF, this is as bad as uggs in the summer. It's 90-some degrees throughout the majority of the country.
Just because some people wear them does not mean that we all should! lol.

May I also suggest avoiding the mini skirt? I dunno bout the rest of you, but knee length or slightly above tends to look more presentable to me. Some of those skirts look like you're wearing a tube top over your rear.

Quick hijack...
Has anyone noticed that the ankle length leggings overlayed with a mini-skirt coming back? I'm scared!
ETA: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! blueangel, you've confirmed my worst fears. That sun-sentinal articles says:

Leggings are back. Here in hot and humid SoFla that trend might flop, but girls just might flip for legwarmers, knee socks or capri-length leggings under a short denim skirt. (Hilary Duff packages a pair of leggings with patch-covered miniskirts in her tween-targeted line called Stuff.)
