Every lady loves to be comfortable and smart in any piece of clothing they put on, whether for official or casual purposes. But unfortunately, not all outfits look stunning on that figure-eight shape regardless of the designer or the cost of the apparel.
Just imagine after spending minutes of your valuable time in front of your wardrobe searching for that perfect outfit for that August occasion which at the end of the day, you felt embarrassed, not because you are wearing inferior set of clothing, but because you wore the right clothes the wrong way.
This is exactly what it looks like when you are wearing your leggings/jeggings inappropriately. This is because it is a close-to-skin type of clothing that brings out the shape and size of your butt, depending on the individual wearing. Hope you get what I mean.
An adage says “The way you dress is the way people will address you”.
Leggings are a fashion trend that just won’t go away. They were quite popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The fad went out of style because it was abused. Some people do not know how to properly wear them. Those folks tend to ruin it for all of us and give leggings a bad name.
There are people walking around wearing leggings and short shirts. Some people have even decided they can wear tights and pretend they are leggings. There are even some girls wearing jeggings, as if they are skinny jeans. No, no, no! None of this is acceptable. If everyone is going to keep committing these crimes of fashion, companies will stop making leggings again. Erm….
Leggings are just like pants. You can gain or lose plenty of weight, but the leggings will stretch right along with you. Because of this, they are perfect for people of all sizes. Anyone can wear them, as long as the woman is wearing them properly, a woman of any size can find them to look flattering.
Here are some ways in which you can rock your leggings without exposing your body.
1. Wear a long shirt! This is the basic rule of leggings. You want to wear a long shirt, preferably a tunic. Make sure to buy your long shirt so it goes about 2 inches below your rear end. Yes, that is why they exist. It is just not proper to walk around making us look at your butt. Some dudes might want to see it, but to be honest; no one’s butt (no matter how much you work out!) looks too good in leggings. It just simply leaves nothing to the imagination. So cover it up! Let’s not even mention no one wants to see the front region either while you are wearing them. Just remember to cover it up, Ladies!
2. If you feel uncomfortable wearing leggings with a shorter shirt, just add a super long cardigan. The bottom line is you are still keeping the private regions covered and that is the correct way to wear them.
3. Pair your leggings with a cute dress and heels for an outfit.
4. Patterned leggings are so much fun, but can be hard to wear. Pair them with basic shirts like white, black or another solid colour.
5. When you are running around getting errands done, or just leaving the gym, throw on a denim jacket and sunglasses for an instant touch of glam.
6. Dress up your leggings with a necklace and a fitted blazer.
7. A long, open button-down shirt with boots and a scarf plus leggings make a great and super comfy outfit.
8. A long poncho can be very bulky. Wear it with leggings instead of jeans to balance things out.
No matter how you feel about leggings, though, I guarantee there is an outfit idea in here that you’ll love. As a matter of fact, I am sure the world thanks you for properly wearing them from now on. Now go out there and wear some leggings!
