Fashion Guide for Black Leggings During Summer
Don't forget about the greatest gadget in your closet whether you're eating outside or running errands that is a black legging. View the top picks for summer leggings outfits below, and be inspired to design your dresser that transitions from colorful loungewear to elegant summer black leggings trends.
●Black Leggings and A Timeless Basic T-shirt
Put a denim jacket over top of a loose, timeless T-shirt that you wear with your basic black leggings. Your look can also be improved with a sling bag and a great pair of sneakers.
●Black Leggings and A Crop Top
It's best to wear high-waisted leggings when accessorizing crop shirts with them. Not only can high-waisted leggings offer more covering, but they also help you look more put-together and professional. They give the illusion of longer legs and tighten your waist, making you look taller and leaner.
●Black Leggings with Graphic Shirts
It's not the same as putting together a classy outfit and tucking an enormous graphic t-shirt into pants that are too tight. Something about this appearance simultaneously makes you feel confident and at peace. Maybe it's the way the pants fit snuggly around your waist or the way the t-shirt falls beautifully over the way you look.
●Black Leggings and Tank Tops
Most women's go-to color is black, but you can try different colors and styles as well. But keep comparability and stability in mind. You might pair your solid-colored tank top with bold or colorful leggings.
●Black Leggings and A Breathable Button-Down Shirt
Easy wardrobe essentials like a pair of traditional black leggings look great with a white button-up. The nicest thing about wearing a denim shirt with leggings is that it can be worn layered over and over other basic pieces.
Regardless of the weather, black leggings trends have been a huge essential for women for decades and will stay that way.

All your settings are crazy interesting to think about and currently I've been taur-brained. sorry if you've already answered this somewhere else, but who are the ones manufacturing their clothes? Or their mane and hoof care products, etc? Would it be humans who were already making similar stuff for normal horses, or are there some centaurs also in the business making more specialized and informed products (like shoes or horse-pants????) Surely there's an economic power imbalance in there somewhere between whoevers making the necessities and who's got to buy them.
(either way, being good at diy is probably a plus for them )
I mentioned it a little bit in the first clothing post i made but the examples given (aside from the classical dress) are all modern - basically, small tailor shops in Ironwall will bulk-order horse blankets from wholesale (usually international) retailers and modify them on-site for resale to centaurs, sometimes doing a same-day custom job for someone if they need it. this is considered kinda cheap, and not in the realm of formalwear/barely business casual. think t-shirt and jeans level stuff. but like you said, in a lot of cases centaurs would buy their own horse rugs to modify at home (basically you need longer straps that articulate at a different part of the body than stock). these specific alteration shops are usually some of the first businesses to pop up in cities/towns outside Ironwall whenever emmigrant centaurs have a decent presence, alongside herbivore food shops.
so yeah absolutely as a marker of class & a requirement for formal occasions, there is bespoke tailor-made clothing made to fit their bodies from the start and it is EXPENSIVE. especially the big classical style gowns, there's a lot of fabric there and it has to be cut well so that it doesn't entangle the legs or restrict the torso, and have enough petticoat/underskirt/etc so that there'll be no accidental flashing on a windy day. now modern commercialism/capitalism hit Ironwall in a very strange way - many centaurs remember the exact moment the first mcdonalds opened in ironwall in the 90s, as human resident % had gone up and suddenly Ironwall was a market and a consumer base.
(this one got so long that even I will concede to a readmore)
most people unable to afford the tailored stuff in the early 20th century would buy big cuts of curtain fabric and sew their own gowns for formal occasions/serving on a budget and those gowns would see use for decades. companies saw the potential to offer factory/sweatshop produced off the rack centaur fast fashion that resembled the very intricate classical gowns without any of the tailored properties/thick skirts/flexibility in the torso/etc. this is landfill junk and wears out quickly. in many cases it's a cheap human bodice/t-shirt/etc sewn to the bottom gown bit, which means there's a weak seam right at a point of great articulation, and the clothes will catch/snag in odd places because the muscles underneath are different too. in terms of the economic power imbalance - yep. it's a market but a small one, without much competition, and multinationals can easily outcompete the centaur tailors who offer services at middle or low price brackets.
and of course. there's always poverty tourism. you can buy fully bespoke, made-for-centaurs, designer... rebadged horse blankets, for the athleisure/sports-luxe fans
because centaurs as a market share are not very prominent still (that is changing tho), most of their own businesses are small and dynastic - one group running the same mane oil business since the 1700s, churning out the same basic product for a small but dedicated audience. these types of businesses rarely advertise and if they do it's by putting a tiny text-only ad into the paper with their phone number inserted. they are woefully ill-prepared to compete with external businesses turning their eye to Ironwall in search of new markets. but what they have that large multinationals don't is parochialism and loyalty to a brand, and access to a more readily exploited centaur work force. many will turn around and do a little song and dance "don't you want to support small centaur businesses? we'll go under if we have to comply with modern labour laws!"
because at the heart of centaur businesses is that old purifying work ethic, and because ironwall is 1. conservative and 2. largely self-governing, their labour laws are antiquated. they still have workhouses. and there has always been a lack of interest from the wider country's government to intervene because ehh it's the Ironwall culture to work hard, isn't it? and do we really want to insert ourselves into centaur business? humans actively seeking work in ironwall, then, make up two broad groups - those who seek to exploit these relaxed labour laws by opening a business, and those who know that 'poor' in other places is 'middle class disposable income' in Ironwall (like first worlders becoming 'expats' or 'digital nomads' in places with cheaper costs of living than their wealthy home nation - easily leading to gentrification).
Anyway so that's all the modern perspective; all of this applies for the other beastmen as well like the harpies and so on, though they have to live with the additional layer of most of their laws and products being about horses.
Historically centaur clothing was made by hand in the home, usually by the women in a social group, and made robust enough to last several generations of wear (with repairs). Because clothing would be passed down from mother to daughter, this resulted in colt bachelor bands being so fucking naked all the time. In traditional enclaves and pre-Florian settlements, a stallion who was accepted into his new herd would be gifted handmade kinetic clothing (bells, ribbons, feathers, anything that enhances the movement) by his new wives and his ability to keep his gifts looking nice would be judged for a set period of time (if you lose a bell that's bad luck buddy), after which he was supposed to return the favour by hand-carving them beautiful tail ornaments (as discussed in my historical clothing post - the ornaments would appear similar to welsh lovespoons in design)
Tumblr media
this tradition got trampled over with the introduction of Florian's penal laws because tail ornaments could not be worn when the tail was fully covered and attempts at kinetic fashion fell flat when your nice trot is all hidden up by what's basically a giant tablecloth. but there does remain a custom of women giving men gifts to test their commitment (to heterosexuality), with the expectation that it'll be paid back with something nice and handmade. but commercialism comes for us all eventually.
finally on the topic of shoes, iron shoes are not super common anymore but in the victorian era, rope shoes were manufactured in the city to cut down on noise levels when streets were becoming full paved/cobbled.
Tumblr media
they were not very good for the feet and required regular replacement because the rope would wear down, but that meant business for farriers was booming and became almost guaranteed when the famously and hilariously corrupt high councillors and lord protector began to pass increasingly strict anti noise pollution laws.

Brian Dumoulin may be one of the most interesting men to wear black and gold in quite some time, as he's got so many passions outside of hockey, like travel, food and wine. The 31-year-old shared some of his must-haves, both on and off the ice, at home and on the road.
Wine books, magazines and podcasts
One magazine I've subscribed to that I really like is called Noble Rot. It's from London, where they have two different wine bars and a wine store. I really like the stuff that they write. It's really, really cool.
For podcasts, there hasn't been as many recently. But through the course of like 2010 to 2021, there was a podcast called 'I'll Drink to That!' It's a guy named Levi Dalton. He basically interviews everyone, from people who work in restaurants, winemakers, wholesale distributors - anyone in the wine trade. They talk about how they got into wine. With the winemaking, it can be very technical, where they talk about decisions with the barrels, decisions with when to pick, how their vineyards are different than the other
 so it's very intricate. I wouldn't say it's for a beginner (laughs), but it's really good information.
For books, the last one I read is called 'Terrior Footprints' by Pedro Parra. He's sort of an expert. It's a book about wine and how when you blind taste, you kind of taste soil in the glass, and that's a good way to blind taste because you can really pick up different notes if you know where it's grown in.
Grassl universal glasses
I use those normally. I also use Zalto universal glasses for whites, Zalto burgundy glasses for pinots and lighter reds, and Zalto bordeaux glasses for heavier reds
Loose leaf imported tea
I do a lot of green. Lingering Clouds is a green tea that I really like. Then there's Gaba, which is good for after meals, for digestion. That still has a little caffeine, so I don't try to do that towards nighttime. I always have loose leaf chamomile before bed. I'll usually do that around 7-7:30 PM, or I'm going to the bathroom all night (laughs).
Snacks with a bit of a kick
I mean, it's not healthy or anything, but I like salt and vinegar chips. Those get me, my wife too (laughs). We'll have a bag and all of sudden, it's gone. It's easy to finish a whole bag. I also like Smart Sweets sour gummy bears [the green package]. We have them on the team plane.
The stovetop
My favorite kitchen utensil is honestly the stovetop. I like cooking on the stove a lot better, I'd say, just because grilling is a little bit harder to control. I'll do steak on the stovetop, but obviously I'll cook burgers on the grill, and stuff like that. But I like just trying a bunch of different things on the stovetop.
Broom and dustpan
I love to clean and sweep, it's soothing. I like the broom and dustpan. I'm old fashioned. That's all I need.
Beanie
That's just because I don't want to comb my hair. It's just laziness. That's one thing that I'm not into, is clothes. I'm not a clothes guy.
Lacrosse ball
I like to roll out on that for recovery. I really like that, it's easy. It's really good for your legs and your hips, to get into the small little muscles.

The Ultimate Guide to Wholesale Plus Size Leggings: Quality, Comfort, and Style
In the realm of fashion, inclusivity is not merely a trend; it's a movement toward acceptance, representation, and empowerment. Plus size fashion, in particular, has seen a significant evolution, with brands recognizing the need for diverse sizing options and styles that cater to all body types. Among the essential staples in any wardrobe, leggings stand out as versatile, comfortable, and universally loved. If you're in the market for wholesale plus size leggings, this guide is your go-to resource for navigating quality, comfort, and style.
Understanding the Demand
The demand for plus size clothing, including leggings, has been steadily increasing in recent years. With more individuals embracing body positivity and advocating for size inclusivity, retailers are responding by expanding their offerings to cater to a broader range of sizes. Plus size leggings, in particular, have become a wardrobe staple for many, offering both comfort and style for various occasions, from casual outings to active pursuits.
Tumblr media
Quality Matters
When shopping for wholesale plus size leggings, prioritizing quality is paramount. High-quality leggings not only provide better comfort and durability but also offer a more flattering fit. Look for leggings made from premium fabrics such as spandex blends or moisture-wicking materials that offer stretch, breathability, and shape retention. Additionally, pay attention to stitching and construction, as well-finished seams contribute to both comfort and longevity.
Comfort is Key
Comfort is non-negotiable when it comes to plus size leggings. Opt for leggings with features such as wide waistbands, reinforced seams, and moisture-wicking properties that enhance comfort during wear. Seamless designs can also minimize chafing and irritation, ensuring a smooth and comfortable fit. Consider leggings with adjustable features like drawstrings or elastic waistbands for customizable comfort.
Style Options Galore
Gone are the days of limited style options for plus size leggings. Today, wholesale retailers offer a wide array of styles, colors, and designs to suit diverse tastes and preferences. From classic solid colors to bold prints and patterns, there's something for everyone. High-waisted leggings are particularly popular among plus size individuals, offering support and shaping for a flattering silhouette. Experiment with different lengths, from full-length leggings to capris and bike shorts, to cater to varied preferences and occasions.
Versatility for Every Occasion
One of the key advantages of plus size leggings is their versatility. These wardrobe staples can effortlessly transition from casual loungewear to active wear or even semi-formal ensembles with the right styling. Pair your leggings with oversized sweaters or tunics for a cozy yet chic look, or layer them under dresses or skirts for added warmth and coverage. For active pursuits, opt for moisture-wicking leggings paired with a supportive sports bra and breathable top for maximum comfort and performance.
Sizing Considerations
When purchasing wholesale plus size leggings, it's essential to consider sizing carefully. Plus size measurements can vary significantly between brands, so always refer to the retailer's size chart for accurate sizing guidance. Look for retailers that offer a comprehensive range of sizes, ensuring that you can cater to customers of all body types. Additionally, consider offering a variety of sizing options, including petite and tall lengths, to accommodate diverse height preferences.
Affordability and Accessibility
Affordability and accessibility are essential factors to consider when sourcing wholesale plus size leggings. Look for reputable wholesalers that offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality. Consider partnering with suppliers that offer bulk discounts or wholesale pricing tiers to maximize cost savings. Additionally, prioritize wholesalers that offer easy ordering processes, flexible payment options, and reliable shipping services to streamline your procurement process.
Customer Satisfaction and Feedback
Finally, prioritize customer satisfaction and feedback when selecting wholesale plus size leggings for your inventory. Pay attention to customer reviews and ratings to gauge the quality, fit, and performance of different leggings brands. Solicit feedback from your customers to understand their preferences and needs better, allowing you to refine your product offerings and enhance customer satisfaction.

Conclusion
In conclusion, wholesale plus size leggings offer an excellent opportunity for retailers to cater to the growing demand for inclusive and stylish fashion options. By prioritizing quality, comfort, and style, retailers can curate a diverse selection of leggings that appeal to plus size individuals of all tastes and preferences. With careful consideration of sizing, affordability, and customer satisfaction, retailers can build a successful business catering to the diverse needs of the plus size market.

I get a lot of startup founders wanting to make custom t-shirts. And when I suggest they go the organic cotton t-shirt wholesale route, so they can buy t-shirt blanks for a fraction of the price it would cost to develop them from scratch
 their answer is usually, “Absolutely not.” “My brand is special,” they say. “My brand needs a custom fit and will have only premium fabrics. No one will take my brand seriously if I use pre-made shirts.” But as someone who has been in this industry for well over a decade, I can tell you that this mindset is so, so wrong.  Learning how to understand the world of t-shirt blanks could be the difference between a brand that launches and is successful for years to come, and a brand that fizzles out before they get their first sale. So, if you have been thinking about starting a sustainable t-shirt brand, this post will cover everything you are going to need to know.   BUT BEFORE WE GET STARTED... I love helping startup brand founders succeed, so I created a bunch of free guides that will help you with your business. They won’t be free forever, so make sure to grab them while you can. What You’ll Learn: My inspiration for this post (because I know some of you like hearing the tea before I get into the fashion details) What are blanks, and how are they used in the industry The pros of using blanks  The cons of using blanks  Looking for blanks? – here is who I recommend   NO TIME TO READ? CHECK OUT THIS 60 SECOND RECAP...   I DIDN’T REALIZE I WAS ON THIS T-SHIRT SUPPLIER’S RADAR . . . Oh, little old me?  Even though I should kind of be used to it by now, I still get surprised when people know who I am. A little bit ago, I even got stopped on my run because someone recognized me.  Anyway. I get so many spammy emails from brands asking me to feature them on the blog. And I rarely respond. I just delete them. Because, honestly, they are a bunch of buzzwords and greenwashing. You know the type – we invented the most sustainable hoodie ever, and our clothes empower women . . . buzzword, buzzword, buzzword. But the other day, I got excited when I recognized the brand on the other end of the email for once – Original Favorites. Because, for years, I have recommended that my clients and students check out Original Favorites for organic cotton blanks.  SO, WHAT ARE T-SHIRT BLANKS? Blanks are pretty much what they sound like. Blank garments that are ready for customizations like screen printing and or dying - they are literally a blank canvas.  It’s kind of like buying a 5-pack of Hanes Deep V-necks (literally my uniform in college, along with some Hard Tail leggings and Ugg boots). Except it’s on a bigger scale, A LOT cheaper, and blanks are intended for brands to purchase and customize. How it all works is that a company, like Original Favorites, puts in a huge order for a few styles of t-shirt blanks. Because their order is so big, they get really good prices on the shirts throughout the entire supply chain. From fabric to sewing to shipping – the bigger the order, the better the prices. So, they take advantage of that. They then pass on those giant bulk order savings to you and take a small cut.  So instead of you having to order tens or hundreds of thousands of the same shirt to get a good price, you can order just a few – like 10, and still get a much lower price than you would ever be able to get trying to produce 10 t-shirts on your own (I’ll break down the math in just a minute). Blanks are made to be customized. So, you can add your own designs and even labels.  And the cool thing is, blanks aren’t just for t-shirts. You can buy blanks in almost any type of garment. Scarves, dresses, skirts, sweatpants, hoodies, polo shirts, tote bags – the options are limitless.  4 PROS OF USING T-SHIRT BLANKS 1. NO DEVELOPMENT COSTS A lot goes into developing a single t-shirt. And if everything is custom, there isn’t much you can do to cut development corners. You need to source everything, have patterns made and graded, and have various samples made to check the fit. Then, you need to make sure there are no issues for your customer.  This gets pretty expensive, especially when you are making garments domestically. In the United States or Europe, this will all cost anywhere from about $400 - $1,000 just for a t-shirt. And developing more technical items could cost up to $3,000, depending on who you work with and how complex the garment is. The other thing worth mentioning is that development costs are fixed. So it costs the same whether you develop 100 shirts or 10,000 shirts.  Here is how the development costs of a shirt break down... For example, say it costs you $500 to do all the development work and perfect your t-shirt and you only want to make 50 pieces. And in production, each piece is $10. Well, on top of the $10 production price, you would need to add in your development cost. So, $500 divided by 50 is $10. That means the real cost of each production piece is $10 plus $10 for development = $20 total. Now, if you are making 1,000 pieces, we would take the $500 divided by 1,000 pieces, and the development cost per piece would be just 50 cents. So, your total unit cost would be $10 plus $0.50, which is a total of $10.50 per piece. To be clear, I would never recommend a new startup brand buy 1,000 units on their first order. But hopefully, you get the point I am trying to make . . . development costs are costs that effect your bottom line, and they are expensive! So, by using blanks, new brands can completely cut out that development cost, lower the overall cost of their product, and still get low MOQs (minimum order quantities). 2. NO SURPRISES Even if you work with the best factories, I can promise you that things will not be perfect. In your sample and development process, there will always be small things you need to tweak or reevaluate. And that is exactly why you must have a development and sampling stage and can’t skip it. One of the most disheartening things for new brands is when they finally open their box of samples after months of work and feel like everything is wrong. Us industry pros know that it’s all part of the garment game – alterations need to be made and new samples need to be submitted for approval. But for newbies, it is sometimes so disheartening (and expensive) that they give up completely. The other scary thing that sometimes happens is brands will think they have a perfect sample, place their production order, and then realize something is wrong after they receive their bulk order. Now, they have hundreds of defective t-shirts to deal with. When you are buying t-shirt blanks, you know exactly what you are getting. You can buy a few (like 1 or 2), make sure you absolutely love them, and then buy larger quantities.  And the best part? Every time you reorder, you have the assurance that you are getting the exact same item because someone else is taking care of all the quality assurance for you. 3. THE BEST PRICING ON SMALL ORDERS I already told you about how much money you can save in the development process by using t-shirt blanks. Now, let’s talk about how much more money you can save on production. Here is the reality of fashion and the secret behind why fast fashion and other big brands can offer such low prices. The more you buy, the more you save. That is for a few reasons. Let’s start with the fabric. When you give a fabric mill a huge fabric order, they can program the machines once and let them run day and night (new fabric orders require cleaning the machine, re-programming the machine, and in general, a lot of downtime). It is extremely efficient to run just one fabric for a long time for big orders. And the more efficient you can be, the faster things can get made, and the more money you can save. People become more efficient too Garment sewing at a factory becomes more efficient with larger orders as well. Factories like big orders because it gives their workers time to get good at making your product. If you only want 50 pieces, by the time the workers find their groove, the order is done. But with an order of 10,000 pieces, every day, the workers get better and better at making the product from all of the repetition. They also get quicker, so you get a lower price.  Factory workers can go from making 15 pieces daily to 30 just by repetition and getting to know the product inside and out. On large orders, when workers become masters at making your product, the work becomes almost mindless for them. They can laugh, joke, and listen to podcasts while working.  So, when you order blanks, you get a product that’s been replicated many times and produced more cheaply, thereby cutting production costs for you and your customer. Versus placing a small custom order with a factory, which means garment sewing will take longer and production costs will be higher. 4. GREAT FOR RE-ORDERS Worried about selling out fast and running out of product?  When you have a custom order and want to order more, it can take quite a bit of time. You first need to re-order the fabric, which can take anywhere from a month to 3 months. Then, the shirts need to be sewn, which could take another month or two. With blanks, they are usually always in stock. So as soon as you need more, you can order them and get them immediately.  This can be great for customer retention because, the longer customers have to wait for a product on backorder, the less likely they are to place their order.  It’s also great for your cash flow because it allows you to get product out quickly and not tie it up while waiting for new items to be made. 2 MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT USING T-SHIRT BLANKS 1. “NO CUSTOM FITS OR FABRICS MEANS MY CUSTOMER WON’T GET WHAT THEY NEED” “But Melanie, I have done all the research, and know that the exact shirt I want to develop isn’t out there right now. There is a need for my custom design.” Here is a hard dose of reality. I need you to check your ego and listen up. I get that you want to make the same shirt you have in your closet, but you want the sleeves 1 inch longer, the body 2 inches shorter, and the fabric just slightly heavier. Because, then, it will fit you perfectly. But here’s the thing. Most people who are buying your shirt do not have your exact measurements. When you make those sleeves 1 inch shorter, even though they’ll fit YOU perfectly, they might be way too short for someone else (read, a paying customer). The truth is, blank companies have done all the research. They are so confident in their research that they’re ordering probably millions of units of the same style. They know what sells. Lean into that expertise.  “From operating their clothing brand, our founders realized the perennial items that sold-out every season were t-shirts and hoodies. They're the most accessible styles for any demographic and often the most-worn and loved by customers. We expanded our fleece styles from there but never ventured too far away from the classics and never changed our silhouette.” Rachel, Original Favorties What that means is that based on tons of sales data from their past and current businesses Orignal Favorites was able to assess what customer really want and make that. 2. “PEOPLE WILL THINK I'M NOT A ‘REAL’ BRAND” Yes, you will. Period. Full stop. If you are making printed t-shirts, all people really care about is the print or the logo. That is what they are buying.  I have one student in LMCL who started her business using a print-on-demand service (basically, a company that will print your designs on blanks). And, IMO, it was the smart thing to do.  While others were struggling with their first patterns, she was already testing product. And when her cohorts were finally just launching, she was already scaling and hiring her first employee.  The bottom line. Using this method allowed this student to launch and scale quickly, and her customers didn’t even know she was cutting design corners. Think about it.  The last time you bought a shirt with a cute design on it, did you email the brand to confirm they paid for the development and design of the shirt? No. Because that would be bananas. So, if you don’t shop that way, why do you think your customers would? I’m telling you, top brands do this to make their lives easier - and you should be considering it too! The other cool thing with blanks is that with a lot of them, their labels are meant to be ripped out, so you can sew in your own brand label. If you sew in your own label, this gives the final product a more branded and polished look.
