Latex leggings: Love 'em or hate 'em?

As our friends at StyleList have so generously reminded us, latex leggings are still making the rounds on the legs and bottoms of your favorite celebrities. We warned you in the fall, and then again this winter, and now the time has come -- the trend is at its peak.

Clearly, this shift from skinny jeans to pants that, somehow, are even tighter, isn't going anywhere any time soon. The question is: do you care? Sure it looks OK on ultra-thin actresses, models and pop stars who spend hours at the gym, working every minor bulge into submission with the help of high-dollar personal trainers. But will it look good on normal women?

Discuss.

Oh Hollywood! Leave the latex to the BDSMers and kinky-folk.
You do not do it justice.
