If you are one of the many lovers of leggings you will love these ideas. If you have been on the fence about leggings than these tips for wearing leggings might convince you that you CAN wear leggings, and not just on weekends.
The first step is finding leggings that fit you properly. You don’t want tight, but you also don’t want baggy or loose. The length of the leggings should be about the ankle, however you can go for a cropped legging,depending on the shoes you are wearing.
Stay away from light or white colored leggings. They just don’t look good on most women. Patterned leggings are okay for a weekend jaunt, but you want to keep it classy during the week or even for work. A dark color (think black, navy blue or dark brown) will look the best.
For the most part you want to pair leggings with longer tops. Your bottom should be covered! You can wear a blouse, sweater or tunic, just make sure it covers your behind. A nice button down shirt with a belt looks very nice.
Pair knee boots with a cute, but loose, sweater. You want something looser on top since leggings are still a lean look on the bottom. Layer your tops for a chic style. Keep your tops simple in solid colors or small patterns only. Try a blazer over a tank for an office appropriate style.
Booties look cute with a cropped length legging. Go for a similar color or an opposite and contrasting color in the booties. Try thick leggings in black for a dressy look. If you do wear a blazer on top you can think about low-heeled pumps, but don’t wear heels that are too high.
Choose nice accessories to wear with your leggings outfit. Nice scarves add a touch of class to your look. A long strand necklace is also elegant and will dress up your outfit.
