rule #1: Leggings are not pants or tights…but they can be.
Leggings are wonderful in so many ways, including their ability to blend style and comfort in one clothing item. For so long leggings have been constricted to activewear. However, in current times leggings have become so much more than just a pair of workout pants.

Being mindful of where you wear your leggings is still super important (not to a wedding, duh!), but that doesn’t mean to shy away from being creative with them.

Rule #2: Mix it up.
Let’s talk how amazing and versatile leggings are. You can wear them with a button-down long shirt belted around the waist and ankle boots, or with high boots and a long blazer for a sharp and classy look.


Rule #3: Accessories, accessories, accessories.
It’s safe to safe that leggings on their own are super trendy, however, with some accessories your look can go from a seven to an 11 in no time.

Try accessorizing with a baseball cap and a pair of sunglasses for a street style vibe, or lots of jewelry and a purse for an upscale runway look. Trust us on this one!

Rule #4: Length matter강남레깅스룸
Leggings should fall just above the ankle—anything shorter automatically creates a stinted silhouette by cutting you off at the shin.


There’s little question that the transition to leggings as life-wear that was underway pre-Covid was, like so many other phenomena (online shopping! hybrid work!), fast-forwarded during the pandemic. Suddenly even those of us who fell into the leggings-are-not-pants camp and viewed them as gym gear began to see the upside of lounging around at home in what are essentially thicker tights.

And once you get used to that … well, it’s hard to go back, even as we all go back to public life.

Indeed, when I asked Tory Burch — who as the power behind her namesake label and Tory Sport has thought a lot about how clothes and leggings fit together — what she thought, she said: “I’m always surprised by the leggings debate. At this point, they’re as essential to our wardrobes as T-shirts and bluejeans. Mixing them with ready-to-wear is simply how many women dress today, whether they’re headed to the gym or not.”

That said, not all leggings are created equal. Like sneakers, leggings can run (no pun intended) the gamut from performance gear to professional get-up. Which ones you wear when matter. And as with most things in life, so does context.

For example, the more technical, and techno-patterned, Lycra styles — the kind that telegraph: “I am going to SoulCycle, and I’m going to crush it today” — are probably best left to the sports for which they are intended. Otherwise you risk looking as if you may segue into a downward dog or camel pose as soon as work gets stressful.
