We Love Colors Review

I'd been meaning to try out We Love Colors for a while now, so when they asked me to do a review, I was more than happy to oblige. We Love Colors is best known for their tights (which come in plus sizes), but they also sell dancewear. While browsing the website, their leotards caught my eye, so I ordered a neon green one in XXL (the largest size they offer). According to their size chart, the 2X should fit anyone from 200-250 lbs. At a solid 215, I must say it took a bit of effort to get into; I assumed it would be more stretchy. Once it was on, it felt and looked great, but I'm not sure if someone significantly larger than me would be able to fit comfortably.

I decided to wear the leotard with my thrifted acid wash denim jacket and black jersey mini skirt from, of all places, Wal-Mart. It's finally chilly enough to wear my tights and over-the-knee Chinese Laundry boots that I've been waiting to pull out for months now. I know combining neon, acid wash, and door knocker earrings isn't exactly everyone's idea of fashionable, but I can't help but love the fact that the 80s and 90s are back.

Oh, and yes, that would be my new hair (it's pretty much shaved on one side).

to the previous commenter, have you found the fit of their tights to be ok, or should I be looking to order a size up?

I love this ensemble, I just ordered 3 pairs of their plus size tights because I have a hard time finding bright ones in my size. I love your new hair too, very cute! And to those who don't love the 80's-90's comeback, whatever! Lol, great boots too :)

You look awesome! I am glad that you love We Love Colors . I still dont have one yet. My friend has the splash colored one and she uses it with fishnet over it or with a white button down shirt over it.

I love bright colors so this outfit I REALLY like! Where do you find your boots? I've been looking for a great pair of over-the-knee boots for a while now, but no luck because my calves are big. =[ If you have any ideas, please let me know!!!
