A Performance Piece

August 22, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

These leggings came into my wardrobe surrounded by debate. When I first found them my co-workers insisted that only Beyonce could justify wearing something so out of control, and even then only on stage. Naturally I took this as a challenge and promptly purchased them.

What do you think, was I successful or should I relegate these pants back to the costume shop?
