Could you clarify more? Maybe provide a picture? Although, from what you've said so far I assume you are talking about "Legging Pants-ish".

You can wear them either way. Generally, though, leggings that are worn as pants should be thicker (don't wanna flash anybody with your underwear).

I've seen girls wear them under miniskirts, or under dresses with a shorter hem with, like you said, flats or boots. Really, leggings are quite versatile. I just wouldn't recommend wearing them with any sort of pant or short (my pet peeve).

Some advice:

NEVER wear leggings with t-shirts, not even t-shirts that a slightly long. That just looks.. bad.. =_=


Leggings with a long tunic (almost like a minidress) works. I've seen it in magazines all the time. :D

The look cute with flats or heels.

i use to wear leggings with mini skirts like three years ago, harharhar. now, i wear thick leggings that end near the ankle or tights, not mid-calf. usually with a long tunic sweater or dress that ends somewhere mid-thigh, like this or this. pumps or slouchy boots and flats if it's not tights.

Wear them with anything but shorts, pants, capris....you know. Skirts, dresses, even long shirts will totally work with leggings.

The look horrible in skirts but look better in long shirts.

Leggings in skirt = bad for my eyes.

This is pretty much what I would say.

Just a heads up: never take fashion advice from Lindsay Lohan. She can f**k you over. Not to mention, she's a crackwhore.

Okay, I'm exaggerating, but seriously, if you think you look good in shorts with leggings, by all means, wear it like that. I won't judge you; I'll admire your bravery.

Although uh...gym shorts? You mean the flimsy, athletic type? I don't know, that doesn't sound too appealing...I'd wear them with a short with more substance like Lindsay has.

obviously it looks weird because you're wearing leggings with gym shorts, goddamnit. they are suppose to be wore with shorts like this or this. even demin shorts, but i think it looks kinda tacky so i prefer shorts similar to what lindsay lohan is wearing. shorts look better with tights instead of leggings that end mid-calf and paired with heels or boots.

i tried some with a long blouse with a long sweater...
and it was very cute...but it just felt so weird...
just a long top with bare leggings...
i guess i'm just not use to it like other girls are...
or maybe im just self-conscious...0_0

Or...I mean, if you're self-conscious, then don't wear leggings. You should never wear something just because they're trendy, especially if you feel uncomfortable in it.
