Totally getting the whole Smeggings thing

I bought smeggings yesterday. Skirt + leggings = Smeggings. I know, the name sounds so funny. I can't stop laughing at the sound of it. But yes, that's what they are called. Well, as shown on the package. Haha. I must say, they are really soft, comfortable and much more flattering than black denim skirts paired with tights. I got mine from Myers. I've been wearing my ankle leggings almost everyday. I bought them for $15 at Supre on my second day in Melbourne. And it's been 2 and a half years now, they are still so comfortable, and are in ace quality. So if you are in need of some black ankle tights, you know where to go to!

Oh and I got lucky and won a Frankie Magazine giveaway! I now have this new Pocket Carnival pencil case. It's so cute, and the inner plaid fabric lining makes me smile whenever I reach out for my pencils.
New pencil case!
Thank you Frankie!
Oh and Myers too, for selling nice smeggings!

PS: Do any of you Melbournians wear smeggings too? And where do you get yours from?

  1. haha, I've never heard of them before! Are they like normal leggings with a really high waist band that you fold over into a skirt? Sounds great for bike riding!
    That pencil case is lovely. I've been entering Frankie giveaways for years and never won anything, oh well, I guess I should keep trying.
    What brand/colour is that pencil? it's great!

  2. You're lucky to win the lovely pencilcase!

    I have never tried smeggings (all trends and new things come to Norway about 6 months after the rest of the world... ) but it looks comfortable!

  4. Well I never heard of Smeggings (There used to be a show here in the UK called Red Dwarf and one of the characters used to say smeg alot)

    On the other hand we've got jeggings - they are leggings but they are denim patterned and look like jeans from a distance lol (like really tight skinny fits or something lol.

    That pencil case is very cool :) Congrats

  6. I haven't heard of or seen this smeggings trend in Perth! Sure, I've seen leggings as pants and all that but not paired with a similar skirt. Must be a Melbourne thing :)

  8. If they're a cross between a skirt and leggings, how come they're not called skeggings instead of smeggings? Just wondering...
