I am a big fan of skinny bottoms and have countless pairs of skinny jeans and leggings. However, jeans can sometimes feel too restrictive (especially if you've put on a few pounds of winter weight), and let's be honest, leggings can't be worn with tops that hit above your hips unless you're pencil thin. Enter Denimocracy and their fantastic line of "jeggings," which are made to look like denim and feel like leggings. Their incredibly cool and flattering styles are perfect for days when you want the comfort of leggings but the look of denim, which is me every day since I got a pair! They come in a variety of awesome washes that pay homage to the likes of "Benatar" and "Bowie" (I especially love the acid wash styles), and are perfect for adding a bit of rock 'n' roll to your look. It's no wonder celebrities such as Katherine Heigl, Megan Fox, Jessica Alba, Katie Holmes and Lauren Conrad are all big fans. The best part? All the styles retail for under $80!

As awesome as your go-to favorite pair of jeans have always treated you through the years, lately you've been wanting to switch things up. Sometimes you want something a little less bulky than denim to tuck into your boots, yet with a little more coverage than your typical patterned tights. Leggings are the perfect all-weather way to show off your gams without actually exposing yourself a la Lady GaGa -- they can winter-ize your summery dresses, or serve as a replacement for your jeans in the hotter months, which is why I'm sure this trend won't be leaving us anytime soon. And celebrities agree, rocking them with anything from riding boots and peep-toe platforms. While I'm not sure I could justify spending $100 or more on my own pair, if I had a star-worthy bank account I'd definitely check out Nicky Hilton's Alice + Olivia pair, or the styles from Lindsay Lohan's line 6126, spotted on Paris, Beyonce, & Taylor Swift. Vote below on which of LA-la-land's legging-loving fashionistas looks best in the trend!
