I'm 51, and switched from jeans and tights to my Calzedonia cotton comfort leggings 2 years ago when my hormones made it impossible for me to tolerate wearing ANYTHING with a waistband, even an elastic one. I wear them with boots and maxi dresses, or a jumper dress. They are a godsend. Thanks for the inspiration 😍
What about leggings with fur coats? I would love that!!!! Never tried though... In Florida is no easy to do that, but I am thinking of traveling so I thought leggings with a divine brown fur coat from Zara that I couldn't resist. What would you think? 😊
Leggings has become my daily uniform in the house ever since I can remember, that’s why I can’t let go of it ever! Hi Leone I’m 69 year old female from the Phil. I’m a fan of your blog and love your fashion sense, keep it up and God bless you.
Happy Friday and a weekend filled with joy my friend !! So happy that a new light was shined on leggings;leggings is one of the unsung heroes of clothing....worn by so many,yet no speaks of its convenience and the countless ways in which it completes and complements an outfit!! Myself in particular;much prefer a nice leggings with knee/thigh high boots,or chunky combat boots,than a pair of skinny jeans:it just look more classy!!Midi voluminous dresses too!!Beautiful idea with sheer/see through dresses !!Thank you so very much,always a pleasure seeing and having you!!😊☺
Great Video! Love your ideas on how to layer the leggings, especially coming home from Yoga classes! I was hoping you would give us some ideas for legging outfits for spring and summer. Maybe another video for spring on how to style ourselves coming home from the gym. TY Leonnie!
Thank you for this video. I love my leggings but it seemed from so many videos it was an outdated look. Today I wore my leggings with confidence. Thank you again!
Dear Leonie! I like your video very much, although I personally wear leggings in public only during my yoga-lessons. Sometimes I really wished, some women on the street or in a store would layer a coat / oversize shirt with their leggings to create a good outfit.
Love this video 💕. I have seen Marnie Goldbergs video as well and I’ve never thought that I would love leggings at some point in my life, but I do now!! 😅 💃🏻 (And love the interior at the background btw❤️)
❤ great video. I’m going to try every style suggestion except heels😝The cold teamed with desire for bottom variety during the winter inspired me to wear a pair of spanx onyx leggings, black long sleeve fitted cotton t-shirt, knee high red doc martens and trench coat on a rainy day. Perfect for the salon. It was a vibe and everyone noticed the boots not my legs in spandex 😛
I m never sure about leggings so I don't. I thought they were ok with high boots and on oversized blazer, but I worry they look kind of dated. Except I have some that have a little volume, but that's a different look altogether. I wear them, the tight ones, to run.
Leggings are so dependent on the thickness of the fabric. I learned the hard way after washing my yoga pants one too many times and seeing myself in the gym mirror and realizing everyone else could also tell I was wearing leopard print panties. PTSD (Panty Trauma Stress Disorder) After that experience, I am convinced of the following: Don't force other people to see the crotch seam of your leggings. If you can't cover that seam with another layer, switch out the leggings with skinny jeans. Both are out of style, but the skinny jeans are more respectful of other people's comfort. Think of leggings like opaque tights without feet. Great under dresses, skirts, shorts for extra warmth or color and looks great with.boots. Even at the gym, I am seeing women wear jogging shorts over their leggings. Very few women over the age of 10 look good in leggings. The narrow ankles make everyone's butt look bigger and show off every dimple.
I used to wear Chanel leggings with longer top or high boots. But now I prefer wear leggings as accessory . Layered dresses over. And old Celine leggings have interesting details, like straps with zippers on the bottom. I also might wear with longer shirt and of course trench coat, which I just finally added to my wardrobe. I live in South Florida, so i was procrastinating of getting it , but finally pulled the trigger lol it’s from Old Celine. 😜❤️
Using a long shirt, blazer, dress, and or a scarf to cover thighs or butt works indoors. Coats only look right outside. Gotta look good when the coat comes off, too!
I wear leggings every day bc I wfh and then workout during my day. So I get creative with the outfits. Zoom ready on top and workout on the bottom. Covering the bum is the key for me - almost anything works. Great video!
I have absolutely no desire to wear leggings. I don’t wear them. I wear jeans, I wear sweatpants, I wear trousers, I wear skirts, I wear shorts. No need for leggings. Don’t even know why people think they’re so comfortable. They feel restrictive to me. Tired of people people wearing leggings as pants everywhere I go. Some people look OK in them, but most people don’t I don’t need to see what’s going on below your waist.
I guess because I’m older, but I’ve never liked leggings. I only own one pair and velvet. I wear them at Christmas with a dressy top that’s longer. I don’t know there’s so many other better things you can wear besides leggings in my opinion.
*_I LIVE in leggings !!!_* *Having said that, I am compelled to comment on the train wreck "outfit" shown @**3:37**. Don't be afraid to call it what it is ... RIDICULOUSLY HIDEOUS !!!*
I have several ponchos that I like to wear with leggings and riding boots. You can wear them on their own and loosely fit or with a nice wide belt around the waste. 👍
I am not a leggings person for those obvious reasons but I am willing to give it a go especially after seeing this video. Can you tell me what are the best pair of leggings that you have come across?? 😊
If you don’t wear leggings for those obvious reasons, please don’t wear them because of someone online. Trust your self, YOU know better what looks good or not. I used to wear pu leather ones a few years back but always with a long button up or a dress. Now I love my straight and wide leg pants and jeans and I don’t like wearing them anymore.
Hi Leonie! Interesting video showing different ways of wearing leggings, but… for me, it’s only for sport or with high boots and a long sweater! Leggings with heels? Absolutely not my style!!! Sorry but I’m definitely not a big fan of leggings 🤷♀️
Sorry for me leggings are not pants. They are exercise wear or heavy tights. Plus, very few people look good in them, way too revealing. Plus I’m much older and pretty conservative. But I do think you have , as always , great styling tips. Blessings.
Min 1:54, why wearing socks out of the leggings? It dosnt look good in girls mostly, but same as dudes in shorts wearing long white socks; 🤦🏻♂️look so geeky…..wouldn’t be nicer wearing short ankle socks? Hide them? 🧐
Leggings have come around several times in my life and I've worn them many times but it looks so boring to me. Your styling suggestions are on point but bored, bored, bored with leggings.
I just bought some champagne gold ones, with a subtle shine. Not boring! I find they go very well with some of the muted browns and tans that have been popular lately.
Leggings are great for exercise / gym wear or lounging at home. Unless you are young (& with great legs of course), they can look cringy… case in point: all the examples you showed were of young, very tall women who can wear a trash bag and still look amazing. Sorry but a 50+ year old woman with a shirt tied around her waist just looks sloppy. So if someone doesn’t have a pair of actual pants & must defer to leggings, put on a coat (bc the long sweater + leggings just looks v dated to me).
Why not try:leggings made from a thicker fabric than usual (try Zara),and pair it with an oversized,well structured long blazer that's below your hip!!Worn with a shirt inside,or a blouse of your preference.....by doing so it won't look everyday /casual attire!!😊
You show some nice styling tips for leegings, but, however, I have never been wearing and will never wear leggings, not even at home! I really can't understand the reason why so many love wearing them. There are so many other comfortable options to wear, even jeans if they have enough part of stretch in it, which look so much better! All the time I have been at home with my (5) kids I have never been missing them! The only time I wear them is for sports 😉😊
I'm 51, and switched from jeans and tights to my Calzedonia cotton comfort leggings 2 years ago when my hormones made it impossible for me to tolerate wearing ANYTHING with a waistband, even an elastic one.

Leggings are such a lifesaver, aren't they? I'm obsessed with how versatile they are!
For sure !

Ahh do you live downunder too Carol?
I always appreciate your diversity in people that you show. Thank you! Love from Colombia 🇨🇴
That means a lot, thank you!
Yeah, because this is what is important in a fashion video
@@Kelly-pp1et it is! Different people are different sizes.
@@TheCiamarie it’s not though. Clothes are supposed to be shown on thin people.
@@Kelly-pp1et inclusivity is always important in everything!
Thank you for this video. I love my leggings but it seemed from so many videos it was an outdated look. Today I wore my leggings with confidence. Thank you again!
Oh fabulous - I love hearing that!
Yes! The tie something around your waist trend is back.
It's never gone away for me LOL x
This informative article was an eye-opener for me 😊 thanks Leonie 😊
So glad it was helpful for you!
I like the outfit you have on, although I can’t really see the bottoms but that top is really really nice!
Thank you that's super kind. x

Thanks for watching and is t Marnie great?! 😊
@@Thestyleinsider. Yes she is! But so are you ❤️
Wow ! I got some great ideas from this video ❤! Have a great weekend!!!
Thank you! You too!
@ you so welcome! Have a great weekend
I LOVE LEGGINGS. I wear them daily. I really like outfits you showed
Yay! I'm so glad you liked them!

Yes the heels isn't for me but I felt I really needed to include this option as it works for plenty of women - just doesn't suit my personal style. x
GREAT video thanks!!
Glad you liked it!
Great video!
So glad you liked it!

Dresses worn over leggings! O M G. I love your vids

That is a great point - the fabric makes all the difference!
Amazing!
Glad you enjoyed this one.
I am older and work from home, so this time of year, I wear leggings under sweater dresses which are long enough to cover my rear and belly.
Love that!
These are great idea's i look at it as the grown adult way to wrar leggings
Totally - exactly what Marnie said x

That is so true! Gotta keep it stylish regardless of the weather.

Sounds like you're a girl after my own heart Jodi x
Thanks, but leggings are not my thing. But it is always good to know the options you think are the best.
Fair enough too x
Don’t own any leggings, might get a pair to try out 🤔
Definitely worth a try my friend 🤩
I have absolutely no desire to wear leggings. I don’t wear them. I wear jeans, I wear sweatpants, I wear trousers, I wear skirts, I wear shorts. No need for leggings.

Fair enough! Each to their own! 😉
I love how you pronounce Squarespace 😅
Oh does my accent sound a bit funny when I saw Squarespace?
@ not funny. delightful. 🙂
I always have my leggings. But, you know, I hated "stirrup pants" in the 90's and I hate the "current" trend of them now. 😊
No leggings worn out in public unless working out.
😊
Leggings and a cardi 😂❤
Me too lol 😂
I wore leggings all pandemmy long thanks to pregnancy, NICU life and post-partum season. Not for me… ever again, if I can help it 😂😂😂
That’s fair enough too 🙏
I guess because I’m older, but I’ve never liked leggings. I only own one pair and velvet. I wear them at Christmas with a dressy top that’s longer. I don’t know there’s so many other better things you can wear besides leggings in my opinion.
Maybe you could enjoy your pair a little more often than Christmas now! Here's hoping the video has given you a few more ideas x
I worry about thigh wobble! 😂
No need to worry at all - be comfy and enjoy x
*_I LIVE in leggings !!!_* *Having said that, I am compelled to comment on the train wreck "outfit" shown @**3:37**. Don't be afraid to call it what it is ... RIDICULOUSLY HIDEOUS !!!*
I actually thought it was kinda quirky - not something that I would wear but I appreciated it x
Yeah , horrible
I have several ponchos that I like to wear with leggings and riding boots. You can wear them on their own and loosely fit or with a nice wide belt around the waste. 👍
Sounds fab! Ponchos are such a great layering piece.
Good idea I have a black wool poncho and I don’t wear it I will try!
😊👍
I am not a leggings person for those obvious reasons but I am willing to give it a go especially after seeing this video. Can you tell me what are the best pair of leggings that you have come across?? 😊

Hi Leonie! Interesting video showing different ways of wearing leggings, but… for me, it’s only for sport or with high boots and a long sweater! Leggings with heels? Absolutely not my style!!! Sorry but I’m definitely not a big fan of leggings 🤷♀️
I get it - they’re not for everyone 🙌
I really went off leggings they always shrank and ended up below my knees😂
Maybe you just hadn't found the perfect pair?
Sorry for me leggings are not pants. They are exercise wear or heavy tights. Plus, very few people look good in them, way too revealing. Plus I’m much older and pretty conservative. But I do think you have , as always , great styling tips. Blessings.
Thanks for watching Lynn x

So a skinny jeans ? I can see them being the same! Or is it just me being overly hopeful
@@sarra5206 yes they are
Only difference is the leggings are always stretch and have no waistband. The look is very much the same when they are styled as outfits though x
what i wear to the gym, not for dress up!
Fair enough! x
Leggings have come around several times in my life and I've worn them many times but it looks so boring to me. Your styling suggestions are on point but bored, bored, bored with leggings.
I feel you there
Fair enough 👍🏼
Yeah we have worn them so much.
I just bought some champagne gold ones, with a subtle shine. Not boring! I find they go very well with some of the muted browns and tans that have been popular lately.
Great ideas, but with the leggings under a dress, I’d feel too much like Punky Brewster. 😊❤
Haha, fair enough!😉
No. Just no! Fine for working out but hideous snd too revealing for street wear.
Fair enough, everyone has their own style 😊
