Sharing : Leggings

Leggings have been around forever, with men fashioning them before women during the Renaissance period and into the Shakespeare era. It provides warmth and style and has become a must-have accessory for fashionistas. It is a great way to have a little fun in your wardrobe and they can conceal and camouflage unsightly leg areas, or help hide if you forgot to shave!

For some ladies, leggings are never a style option, but for others, knowing how to wear leggings makes all the difference between looking chic versus looking like a fashion throwback.Just so you know, leggings are not pants. Hence, they should never be worn like pants. Instead, they should be treated like tights.

Here are some sharing from nets, hope it helps honey!

♥ DO drape a floaty kaftan, or breezy bum covering blouse over your leggings, accessorized with low slung belt for instantly svelte ballerina pins; and do team with cutesy flats like ballet pumps or gladiator sandals. Steer clear of any form of shoe chunkiness, a la Lily Allen and trainers on her rise to fame - for so many reasons.

♥ Leggings come in every color under the sun, feature different prints, washes, and finishes, and can be worn in all different ways. If you’re just starting out, I’d recommend a solid, opaque pair in a neutral color like black or brown. Sheer, footless tight styles are also great to experiment with, especially under shirt dresses.

♥ Petite women should take care when wearing leggings with a roomy top. Make sure your top is proportioned for shorter women so that it doesn't fall past your mid-thighs – otherwise, it can look like you're wearing a dress with leggings underneath. Also, your ensemble should be as monochromatic as possible for an elongating look. Tall women should also select their tops with care. You want to wear a shirt that comes down far enough so that your rear isn't exposed.

♥ Do invest in a pair of high waisted denim leggings. Not as dangerous with regards hoofage or attack of the big bum and they're also great for winter with a sloppy jumper, cardigan and pixies.

♥ Leggings come in all lengths, from capri to ankle. Ankle length leggings are definitely the hottest style right now, but play around with proportions and decide which length looks best on you. Leggings that hit mid-calf might look adorable on a tall, skinny girl, but might make a shorter leg look wide.

♥ However tempting it might be to wear leggings with Uggs - don't. For no other reason than it's not very imaginative.

♥ Dresses with leggings is a good look but why not save it for winter for maximum fashion wow. Summer legging + dress action will only get you hot.
