Friday Faux Pas: Man Leggings

The trend as of late has been towards the skimmer side of things, with jeans, trousers, chinos, and any other form of pants getting trimmer and more form fitting. The is however a fine line between slim fit and skin tight fit (aka leggings).
This is a thing...please stop this this thing.
I have seen these leggings sprout in one of two circles, the extremely fit and the extremely punk/gothic. The big guys want to show off their newly found quads after a hard leg day while the dark and dismal look to find the skinniest things they can get their hands on. Simply put, the male anatomy is not designed for the only bottom layer of clothing to be skin tight; we have much more going on than women and unless you have a dying need to show off what the good lord gave you, just stop with the leggings. Instead, loosen up a little bit, let the boys breathe! It's OK to have some room in your pants, just make sure the leg openings are tapered properly.

Check in tomorrow for a stylish celebrity influence and next Friday for the next installment of my fashion faux pas!
