If you remember curvy divas, last summer I wrote my first article about Leggings. I've even written about men wearing Meggings! And from time to time, I have featured other articles with leggings! This time I've found an article on Refinery29.com showing us tips on how to wear leggings the cool way! I must admit that not being a size 0, I sometimes tend to cover my "assets" when wearing certain styles, leggings being one of those styles! I usually layer long with short to give me a cleaner look. I see from this article that I was on the right track!
Joanna Riedl shows us how to style leggings well when we wear them by getting tips from some Fashionistas on the streets, in her article: "5 Locals Show us to Style Leggings - The Cool Way!" Photographs are by Maria del Rio:

My second favorite look is this leather leggings:

She believes in buying quality over quantity and says "less is more" but when styling leggings "balancing proportions, textures & color are important"! Her leggings "no-no, not wearing tights as leggings"!

Olga thinks leggings gets a bad rap and consider them to be her most "hard working item in her wardrobe"! She loves her leather leggings for their versatility! Her leggings "no-no: not covering your front area appropriately"; which means say no to camel-toes so you have to layer appropriately curvy divas!
I'm in, I want a pair of leather leggings!
