I Never Wear Leggings to Work, But This Outfit Convinced Me

I've never really gotten behind the idea of wearing leggings to the office. As someone who works out fairly regularly, there's just something weird to me about crossing a boundary between how I dress professionally and how I dress in my time off. But having spotted Gigi Hadid's latest ensemble, I'm beginning to think differently. I know that for many women, the office is never a place for leggings, but for those who can get away with it, Hadid's polished look is a great starting place.
First off, by pairing the sleek leggings with coordinated ankle boots and a black turtleneck, it creates a streamlined base layer and keeps things from feeling too casual. A printed blazer draws attention upward and adds a polished, tailored sensibility to the ensemble. Then, by finishing with fun and eye-catching accessories, the focus is on the pieces she chooses to mix things up. Now I'm tempted to try a similar ploy on a day when I want to let my jacket or accessories shine. Read on to see the ensemble and shop similar pieces too.
