Can All Body Types Wear Leggings?

Repeat after me. Leggings are not pants. Good. Now if you
can remember that one cardinal rule of leggings, then yes �leggings are for you. Worn correctly, leggings can look
amazing on women of all body types. Short, tall, curvy or
slim, find out how to rock a pair of leggings right here.

Legging Tips For Tall Women

Show off your long legs with a great pair of leggings
under a tunic, skirt or dress. If you have a favorite
dress that's just a little too short to wear by itself,
try pairing it with some leggings in a color that ties in
with your dress. Even a summery dress can be worn into
fall and winter if you layer it with a long cardigan and
a scarf. A solid colored shirt dress paired with a
patterned legging and tall boots is another stylish
choice. If you're going for a casual look, try a tunic
that comes down to mid-thigh length with leggings and
ballet flats.

Legging Tips For Petite Women

Shorter women should try a pair of the latest jean
leggings or "jeggings" with tall riding boots. Not only
are jeggings easier to tuck into your boots than regular
jeans, but they are unbelievably comfortable thanks to
their stretchy fabric. Go for a dark shade that matches
your boots. The monochromatic color scheme will help draw
a longer visual line, giving you the appearance of more
height. Low heels and flats look best with leggings, so
save the platform wedges for another outfit.

Legging Tips For Curvy Women

Women with hourglass figures look phenomenal in a belted
tunic worn over a pair of leggings. Just make sure the
tunic is long enough to cover your hips and rear, so
you're flaunting your assets and not your... well, you
know what we mean. Monochromatic colors are always
flattering, but if you're a gal with a passion for print,
go for a pattern either on top or bottom � never both.

Legging Tips For Pear-Shaped Women

If you have the classic pear-shaped body (small on top,
bigger on bottom), your first inclination might be to
avoid leggings altogether. Worn the right way, however,
leggings can be a fashionable and flattering look. Think
Kim Kardashian. Ankle-length leggings are a staple in
Kim's wardrobe, paired with a long tunic layered with a
jacket or cardigan. Try a chunky ankle boot with a small
heel to give your outfit a little extra sass.
