Ignore the Haters—I Still Love These Versatile and Comfy Pants and Bet You Do Too
I don't care what anyone or any trend report says about black leggings; you would have to pry them out of my cold, dead hands to get me to stop wearing them. I know that sounds over-the-top, but I take my leggings collection seriously. The closet staple has had a presence in my outfit rotations as far back as my '90s childhood and carried me through two pregnancies and the postpartum eras for both. Nowadays, these versatile and comfy pants serve a more fashionable purpose thanks to their resurgence in chic, everyday looks among fashion people and celebrities.
With fall about to start, I set out to find a select group of standout black-legging outfits for the new season. My favorite Instagram fashion follows did not disappoint. Each take I found incorporates a range of elevated basics and trendy pieces like oversize sweaters, a trench coat, a white T-shirt, black ballet flats, Adidas sneakers, mesh and studded Mary Jane flats, and more. Ahead, check out and shop seven incredibly stylish ensembles, all anchored with classic black leggings.
