STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Dressed to Not Impress

Hey there Fashionistas. I am back in action once more! Let’s talk about the common misconception of leggings as actual pants. Ah, yes one of the most controversial topics in the fashion realm. I don’t know about you, but I myself am a huge fan of staying comfortable throughout the long day, so leggings are no doubt one of my go-to pieces in this cooler weather. But honestly the struggle is too real when it comes to styling a trendy outfit with them.

With that being said, let’s just jump right into it. When it comes to styling leggings, my number one rule is to wear a top long enough to cover your bottom. I prefer to wear longer tops with leggings for that reason, and there will be no unwanted sheerness. This Fashionista’s top is perfect with it’s drapey detailing.

My second rule is to always try and wear a sweater. A sweater can really dress up any outfit, and it doesn’t lose in the comfort aspect. Dressing up leggings with a sweater honestly makes the outfit look more put together than just your average T-shirt.

Lastly, choosing the right shoes is a crucial part when styling leggings. This Fashionista styled her sweater and leggings combination with an adorable pair of lace-up flats. Not only are these shoes stylish, they’re still very practical. Flats are not the only option to wear, but I think booties are another fantastic choice for those cooler days.

Now the final question is, what is your opinion on wearing leggings as pants?
