I was thinking the the same thing about ankle boots...LOL How many pairs of ankle boots does one woman need? QVC is a retailer and they sell the things they know will sell, the things women want and will buy. I might have them in every color (except leopard which I bought) but QVC isn't selling to just me. They are selling to all the other millions of customers. It's the same with leggings. It's the same with colorful kitchen containers and vacuum cleaners.

Oh wait now ... one can never have too many boots. It's just not possible!

So the other day I had to go to a socially distant meeting w/ some clients and I put on real pants ... zipper and button. I can't tell you how many times that day I had to stop and think before I went to the bathroom-- oh these are not pull down pants!

I don't wear leggings for anything but running. But I have become fond of pull on jeans, which I suppose could be considered leggings, except I buy them so they fit like straight leg jeans. There is something to be said about being comfortable.

The jeans below are pull on jeans from Soft Surroundings and are incredibly comfortable and fit me nicely. So not exactly leggings, but w/ similar comfort.

I have probably 15 pair of leggings. I have thin legs & no hips so they suit me fine.

I'm with you, @kate2357 -- I bought 2 pairs of stretchy pull-on jeans with straight legs a couple years ago. I wear one of them almost every day because they are so comfortable. Now when I wear a pair of pants with an actual zipper and button, I forget sometimes. Oopsie!

Love that pair in your photo!

I do not wear leggings or yoga pants because I have noticed on some women it can outline the camel toe. Especially if ill fitting, white or light colored, made of spandex, poly, or thin cotton.

That is just not me to show too much.

To each their own.

Inexpensive leggings.
