At least for me they are. Not only leggins are way more comfortable than jeans, but they are also very flattering on every shape. I must admit I am very infatuated by them, I've been wearing them for years and for every occasion, you can't go wrong with them. My favorite combination by far is when I wear them with a blazer, just put on a t-shirt and a pair of fabulous pumps (remember not to match everything all the time!) and you are done looking slimmer and very fashionable without sacrificing comfort or style.
