How to Wear Trendy Leggings

Leggings have recently enjoyed a resurgence in popularity. They are comfortable and easy to wear. Trendy leggings can be dressed up or down depending on what they are worn with. While there is not really a right or wrong way to wear leggings, there are some things to keep in mind.

• Choose the right length. Ankle or capri length leggings are a flattering look for just about any body type. Make sure capri length leggings stop just below the knees. If they hit at the calves, which are the widest part of your lower legs, they will make your legs look shorter.


• Select dark colored leggings in solid colors or vertical stripes to make your legs appear longer and leaner.


• Choose leggings in dark colors such as black, navy or olive green and pair them with tops in a bold color or pattern to draw attention away from your legs and highlight your upper body. This is a great option when your legs are not your favorite feature.


• Pick bold colored or glossy leggings, and wear them with a more neutral top to draw attention to and show off your legs.


• Be aware that leggings with prints and textures can make your legs look shorter and wider.


• Wear leggings underneath a dress that is a little too short for additional coverage.


• Pair trendy leggings under a long tunic top belted at the waist for a stylish look.


• Wear denim leggings during the summer. they are lighter and cooler than jeans.


• Basic black leggings are the most versatile and should be considered a wardrobe stable. Start with simple black pair if you are new to wearing leggings.
