A favorite fad this fall is bringing leggings to a whole new ‘tight’ with denim leggings. This look combines the skinny jean with the comfort of a legging. Easily matched with a pair of ballet flats or a riding boot. Legging lovers don’t be shy, one would be hard pressed to spot these faux jeans from the real thing. For a more polished look pair your denim leggings with a cute party top and blazer, or perhaps go casual with flip-flops and a graphic tee. It may sound like an odd combination at first, but don’t knock it till you try it. The best way to pull off denim leggings is to keep in mind that these are leggings not jeans. That means no matter how comfortable you are with your curves think twice before pairing them with a crop top, instead aim for longer shirts and tunics. The leggings can also be found in multiple washes, just like the real deal. The best part about this trend is they’re completely affordable, fashionistas who drool over designer brands can upgrade with a pair of Citizens of Humanity Avedon Super Stretch Skinny in Dust Leggings ($163.00 at www.pinkmascara.com) or penny savers can delight in affordable versions such as Romeo & Juliet Couture’s version ($38.00 at www.Bluefly.com). Even run of the mill mall must-sees such as Target and American Eagle have bought into the faux-denim craze. Will you be next?
