Leg It!

Leggings are easy to wear and probably the most confortable things to wear on your legs. There are also a large variety of leggings: printed, made of lace, plain black, or super colorful... Our members show you the way to being original with leggings! Each of them have managed to associate their leggings in an unique way. Don't hesitate to take inspiration from them!

"I really love leggings because they are comfortable but also very classy if you wear them right and if they are from a good quality. If I don't know what to wear I always grab a legging out if my closet and I always can find something matching with it. I think you can't have enough of them. Further you can brighten up an outfit when you wear a more outstanding legging with a pattern or with a lot of colors!"

"I have to tell you that this was the perfect theme for me, because I wear leggins all the time. I love the different ways you can wear them and of course their comfort. They're different from jeans, because it's so difficult to find the perfect pair of jeans, whereas leggins always fit.


Sassi

Primark white blouse, Buffalo boots

Checkered leggings from Vero Moda and an oversized tee from Topshop.

"These leggings are fun and unique, they remind me of Alice in Wonderland, so I couldn't wear them with just anything. I had to come up with a fun outfit to make them shine and these colorful baloons and asymetrical tee did the trick."

Laura

Leggings from Zara, shirt is Gianni Bini, blazer is Silence & Noise from Urban Outfitters, and shoes are Jessica Simpson.

"Why do I love leggings? Actually as I'm writing this, I'm sitting at the airport gate waiting for a long international flight and am wearing leggings... it's because they're so comfortable. And usually quite flattering for most body types (worn with the correct length of shirt of course). Comfort, style, and ease of dress are some of my favorite things about this article of clothing!"

Erin

Eva's style does not look like anyone else's! We love how her outfit is simultaneously casual, with the great loose cardigan, and chic, with the shoes and Moschino purse!

"Leggings are the perfect way to make a style statement. They are basic, versatile and can dress up everything. They also hide my hideous knees...
With the upcoming fall I feel they are great to keep warm and comfy!"

"I love layering black on black, with lots of textures like velvet, lace and other embellishments, and these leggings are perfect to add another dimension to the outfit and a slight grunge rock style!"

Ash

Leather leggings from Topshop, knitted summer cape from Mariona Gen and sandals from Zara.

"I have two leather skinny trousers, from Zara and Maje, they are really my favourite thing for winter. But, unfortunately, they seem to get bigger everytime you wear them and this annoys me. When I found these pair at Topshop I couldn't believe it! They fit me perfectly and remain the same even if I wear them very often. I love them!"

Mireia

Denim shirt from H&M, leather-look leggings from Zara, shoes from Juicy Couture.

"The leggings have been in my closet for two years now and I couldn't live without them. I think they can really add personality to an outfit. You can wear them with practically anything, from plain pieces like a simple black or gray top (think Ashley Olsen at Chanel '08: leather look leggings with gray oversized sweater,
perfectly styled with sky high heels, round sunnies and a headband), with a cute dress, a strong shouldered blazer or like we see them this winter: in colors like camel and red, with pointy shoes. It can spice up your whole outfit and really give it some extra edge, so I'm going to keep them in my closet for a while!"

"To emphasize the red balloon I decided to create a total black & white look and came to my rescue a few items that I purchased online from Storets, cut leggings and back lace tank top. Then I chose some accessories that confer the outfit a very strong character, the Yves Saint Laurent Cage sandals and the Alexander McQueen skull clutch. Then, after so long, I finally found the right occasion to wear my funny bunny ears."

Melissa

Shoes and dress from H&M, vintage silk jacket, tights from Lindex.

"A while back I discovered the magic effect a pair of tights can have on your appearance; certain patterns can make your legs look both slimmer and longer. With this being said, here is a tights-advice from me to you: Let your legs be the outfit, with the help of the right pair of leggings, anyone can pull it of!"

Jeggings

Jeggings are a combination of jeans and leggings. So basically, they're elastic waisted thin jeans. Wear them under a dress or long tunic, like Marine, or with a simple shirt!

Leggins: Americaninno & Zara.
Shoes:  By independent designers and Converse All Stars
Shirts: Kosiuko & Ona Saez

For a cool and casual outfit, I highly recommend jeggings worn with a plaid shirt!

Shirt and belt by Zara, H&M leggings and Pierre Cardin moccassins.

"What could possibly be more comfortable, but at the same time pretty versatile than a pair of leggings? Depending on your mood, you can dress them up or down, especially now that there's such an incredible variety when it comes to fabric they're made of. Leather, denim or just plain cotton, it's hardly possible to go wrong with them!"
