"Why So Short?"

I have always loved the comfort and versatility of leggings, and I wear them constantly. Before I started Untamed, I was frustrated that there were no long tops to wear over them—after all, leggings are not pants! I consistently searched for fun, comfortable, and flattering long tops or dresses to pair with tights or leggings in summer or winter.

As you know, this challenging endeavour led me to create Untamed. I have always wanted to design clothing for active women—real women who enjoy life and have fun. I envisioned long tops and dresses that were flattering, cool, and perfect for everyday wear.

I frequently get asked, "Why don't you make leggings?" My response is always the same: I will not produce leggings until I can find high-quality, reasonably priced fabric. Finding the right fabric is crucial, and so far, I haven't been able to do that.

Like a good partner, you know they're out there, but where? Haha. I've always been frustrated by the abundance of cheap leggings. They tend to be unflattering, can become see-through when you bend over, and start to sag after just a few wears.

If you have asked me where I got my leggings at a market or show, you will already know that I love Fabletics. I hunted and hunted to find good-quality leggings, and I was pumped when I discovered Kate Hudson's online company. You really should check it out.

They are so comfy, last, and hold their shape. Over the years, I have only had one issue with one pair, and the customer helpline was terrific. They sent me a new pair straight away. I love good customer service; it can make or break a company. 

If you want something different and incredibly cool, you should check out Adrienne at AM Adventures. She is based in Canmore, Alberta, and her leggings feature fantastic landscape photography. The quality is impressive, the art looks beautiful, and the fabric is perfect. Best of all, she is Canadian, so you look good and support Canadian-made products. 

I hope this helps you find the perfect pair of leggings and will stop you from asking me whether I will make some. 

Remember to stay confident, smile, be nice and leggings aren't pants!
