Running skirts are rising in popularity faster than teenagers' hemlines, and for good reason. They're comfortable, flattering and, generally speaking, quite functional with handy pockets.

There's just one problem -- once winter rolls around, bare legs aren't exactly ideal. Even if you're heading to an indoor workout, the few minutes it takes you to go from the car to the gym in the freezing temperatures can do a number on your muscles. But what if your skirt -- your favorite, comfy running skirt -- had legs?

SkirtSports offer just that in their ToughGirl Skirt ($90), and it comes in a variety of colors -- the "Hot Legs" version even has a fun print on the leg. You get all the benefits of yoga pants or leggings, but there's nothing skin-tight to your bum. Now, that's a design I can get behind! As far as functionality goes, the ToughGirl Skirt has two hidden pockets as well as a SonicMusic Port for your headphones.

Do you have fat clothes? I have to admit, I have a few items that fit a little more loosely, and I definitely have some outfits that make me look a little slimmer when I wake up feeling a bit on the heavy side. However, unlike Lindsay Lohan, I don't count on leggings to hide my trouble areas.

Lindsay says, "I never liked my thighs when I was younger, and I don't always feel comfortable with my body ... Pair a big sweater with leggings or layer, that's what makes them so good for winter."

Of course, LiLo might have an ulterior motive, here -- she designs a line of leggings, called 6126. Sorry, Linds -- I liked the 80's too, when we paired the giant sweatshirt with leggings, but you're not going to convince me that's a good idea for me now. No way.
