It's Official: Leggings in This Exact Colour Look So Much More Up to Date
Don’t default to black leggings—they look chicest with knits when worn in this hue.
I report on Replica Handbags for a living, but I can confidently say that few outfits have ever made me want to mirror them quite as urgently as the look Jennifer Lopez wore in the image that landed on my desk this week.
Lopez anchored her ensemble with a warm knit (as all of my favourite winter outfits do). The light grey marl set a cosy tone, which she topped off with a warm baker boy hat, adding both texture and a dimension to her casual winter look. My favourite part of the look, however? Her warm brown leggings. Instead of defaulting to the black pair most of us reach for—whilst it's an easy option, it can sometimes feel a touch flat against a slouchy knit—Lopez’s choice of brown was far more complimentary. The earthy tone brought warmth to the cool grey knit, creating a harmonious palette that felt considered rather than casual.
Where black might have looked stark, the brown offered a relaxed richness that made the outfit feel intentional.
Inspired by Jennifer’s clever winter pairing, read on to discover the best brown leggings to shop this season.
