admin There are a few pieces in my wardrobe that can be considered true staples (namely jeans, blazers, white t-shirts and midi dresses), but the one piece that people are always surprised to see crop up in my everyday outfit rotation is a pair of leggings. It’s important to note, in the post-pandemic post-loungewear world, leggings are no longer reserved for lazy sofa days and yoga, they’ve earned their place in fashion circles too. Don’t believe me? Check out the myriad of ways that influencers, editors and industry insiders have been styling the humble black legging with everything from oversized blazers to slingback heels. That’s right—the legging is now considered an office-appropriate trouser, evening wear option, and is still the backbone of some of our favourite, comfy everyday ensembles, not bad for a jersey basic.
The beginning of autumn is the perfect time to start planning your new season wardrobe, and easy layers like throw-on dresses, cosy knits and comfy separates come into their own this time of year. That’s why leggings deserve a place in your closet; they’re just as comfortable as your favourite summer dress, and just as easy to build outfits around your everyday jeans, so where do you find the best leggings on the market? Well, I’ve done the legwork for you (pardon the pun).
After searching the net, scrolling through socials and asking my fellow editors, I put together a list of all of the leggings worth testing, and came out with these 7 worthy winners. So whether you’re looking for leather leggings for an evening out or the best active leggings to pack in your gym bag, keep scrolling for my tried and tested review of the leggings worth spending your hard earned money on.
