Ditch your plain black leggings for a colorful pair of leggings. They go beyond loungewear, as you can pair them with dressier pieces for an elegant outfit.

Style them with a blazer, bodysuit, and heels for your next business meeting. You can also create a pastel-on-pastel look with colorful leggings.
#5 Printed Leggings
Solid color leggings have surely run their course but if you want to switch to something a little more daring, go crazy with prints! Amp your plain basic outfit to a more statement look by wearing printed leggings. Some designs can be functional and not just for the aesthetic appeal (hello, booty!). While wearing printed leggings, it’s important what you pair them with. Otherwise, it is just a fashion disaster waiting to happen. Always remember to match your top or layers with a color that is already present on the print. This way the outfit has a seamless flow and does not look like a Crayola box threw up on you. Animal prints, florals, and geometric shapes are just a few examples that you can experiment with.
#6 Treggings
As leggings started getting famous, the thicker the fabric got. Treggings are a work acceptable version of leggings. Made from a thick, stretchy fabric made to look like fitted pants. They still give you the same comfort of leggings, so we are totally in for this trend! Mostly available in solid colors, a black tregging is a recommended must-have.

#8 Flared leggings
Thanks to Emma Chamberlain, flared leggings just made their way through Gen-Z’s wardrobe. The popular mid-2000s yoga pants trend has already gained popularity among the Tiktok stars.

They can be appropriate for lounging at home or can be dressed up for work as well. Flared leggings are a multi-fashionable choice, and we love them!
