The leg warmer fashion that was all the rage in the 80’s circa the days of Madonna’s Material Girl and Irene Cara’s Oh, What a feeling! is back. But not for adults though. These days, babies and toddlers are seen sporting this megacute accessory, it’s almost a fashion statement in itself. So of course, a Mommy like me didn’t wanna be left out, and I recently bought a pair of Baby Legs for Ethan from US (on sale at USD8 only, with 10% additional discount samo). Ethan is clad in diapers only at home, so the Baby Legs would be a nice touch to jazz up his outfit. And just in case I wanna put him in diapers and take him out, the Baby Legs can keep him warm.
So two nights ago, I took them out and tried them on him. He was very curious and intrigued at first, because it looked like a pair of socks, except that it had both ends open. Ethan loves to wear and pull off his socks.
But then look what happened when I put the Baby Legs on him…




…and finally, right before I pulled them off him:

SIGH…guess I’ll have to keep them away for future use then

Aiya..you should’ve told me you were gonna buy the leg warmers. I got mine (for the girls) for USD33 for 5 pairs. Free shipping somemore!
Joyce says: Where did you get them? I mean, not that I want to get them anytime soon, but you know, for future knowledge?

KAKAKA>>>>>>>>cant stop myself laughing at the pictures….
I bet Ethan thinks it feels and look weird……maybe babies more suitable but not big toddlers…hehe….
Joyce says: Yeah I agree…he does get a kick out of it when I put it over my arms though.

The thought of baby leg warmers just cracks me up! ROTFL.
I thought the leg warmer trend died out in the 80s and would never be revived… mana tau they brought it back for kids! Hahaha.
I like the pic where Ethan goes, “Seriously mommy, put the camera down and get ‘em off me!”
Joyce says: He does such a great leg stretch in that pic too, eh?

I was curious to see if Ethan liked them - LOL, guess not! Lucas and I have a major *fight* over dressing up coz he wants to choose his own clothes now…esp when they don’t match sigh
Joyce says: I know what you mean! Sometimes Ethan wants to wear comfy cottony shorts instead of dress pants or jeans!

Hi there…first time here….I guess we got the same interest - CD and babylegs. In fact, I just bought 3 huggalugs for Jaden, my younger son and he’s just like your boy. Refuse to put it on! So now, I don’t know what to do with them…haha….
Joyce says: I guess we gotta put them on our kids at a younger age. And yes, I am a cloth diaper addict :O
