Stay Comfy in Denim Leggings
Of all the trends to emerge with such force in recent months, denim leggings rise above as clear favorites. We love them for so many reasons - their comfort, their practicality, their ease, their versatility. Don't shy away from them for fear they'll appear too "painted on" to pull off. Just envision your skinniest jeans - with a little more room to move.
What about the whole "leggings are not pants" debate? We totally agree. The best way to wear any pair of leggings is with a top that falls below the hips, preferably to mid-thigh. The styling opportunities alone are a dream - move from a blazer and long tank during the day to a glam tunic at night.
Finally, they're not committed to any one season, and given their immense popularity, they're available in plenty of styles and price points. Here, just a few that we're eyeing:
Perfect for a pair of leggings that looks just like the real deal, these 7 For All Mankind Gwenevere Skinny Stretch Jeans ($189) feature traditional five-pocket styling and a single-button closure.
Ellen Tracy's Skinny Denim Leggings ($59.50) are sleek and comfy, bearing a strong resemblance to a pair of chic black cigarette pants.
You can't go wrong with Current/Elliott's The Legging Jeans ($218). They're the epitome of casual-chic, perfect for slip into on weekends or evenings when you want a comfortable alternative to your skinnies.
