Now this probably hasn't always been considered a 'fashion item' and I probably wouldn't recommend wearing them by themselves unless your kicking back at the lodge with some hot chocolate after a long day of shredding some pow pow. But I have now seen a couple pairs look pretty cool. I won't use names but a friend of mine was wearing a pair by A-Z Collection under some jeans with the top half as a tucked in shirt with a cardigan on top and it looked quite good. I think utilizing the top half is probably a better idea than the bottoms when possible. The beauty of the look is how practical it is with this cold weather. It definitely keeps you a couple degrees warmer, and if it can provide a nice fresh look, put on for your long Johns.

I always throw a pair under my jeans and cold winter days. GQ's Glenn O'brien turned me on to silk long-johns, too. Wintersilks.com.
It's sometimes better to be warm than trendy. There are plenty of plain thermals about at the moment in plain black and white which suits most people. More coloured, pretty pieces of warm underwear are probably needed, especially if we're having some more cold winters. Some shops have very pretty little vests that help you add an extra layer and are fashionable not to worry about them being spotted.
Women also get the option to wear opaque tights which offer warmth and colour. If you look at the best selling tights at the moment there are some 60 dernier tights out there selling like hot cakes... or should that be like thermals!
long johns are hotter then speedos
I pretty much wear a pair everyday under my jeans. The wind gets way to strong to just go bare under there.
