The Only Legging Trend Fashion People Are Interested In Right Now
The humble wardrobe staple is going up in the world—say hello to the ribbed legging. It may seem subtle, but it's a micro trend that's been bubbling for a while, especially in the coolest wardrobes; and one that feels perfect for this awkward transitional season when we all tend to revert back to basics while the weather is unpredictable. Which is why, today, I wanted to bring you my edit of the best ribbed leggings to shop now.
Think of them as a step up from your basic black workout hero. They're comfy plus chic, and a style that all our favourite fashion gals have been sporting recently. Yes we mean you Hailey Bieber. The best ribbed leggings can be worn with everything from statement leather blazers and knee-high boots to slogan sweatshirts and trainers—and still keep your look feeling elevated.
On the fence? They are a perfect alternative if you're not a fan of jeans and looking for autumn's answer to the comfy linen trousers we couldn't stop wearing all summer. I'll be wearing mine with oversized cosy chunky sweaters and quilted jackets. Specific details to look out for? Slits on the hem or stirrup detailing add even more style points. And they don't just come in black either, this season you can choose from grey, pastel blue and beige versions if you're looking to break from the norm.
