Little Black Leggings are the new Little Black Dress

I have yet to find a female in Wales that does not own a pair of black leggings. This trend makes sense to me. As previously mentioned the weather here is odd. Its cold enough that you can't just wear a skirt but warm enough that jeans are to warm (you would think I am lying because its pretty well winter back home but I am not!) Thus, the introduction to the little black leggings, a suitable choice to wear with a long sweater, or under a skirt. I bought a pair my first week here and haven't looked back since!
Another trend here is wearing tights under shorts. This is a trend that I always thought looked ridiculous on the streets of Halifax but again, it suits the whether here. People can pull it off here. It is still not acceptable in Canada.... ever.
