Breaking the Leggings Rules
Erica’s Leggings Guide
Touch and feel
Not all leggings are created equal and it all starts with the fabric. The Reitmans leggings are made with thicker ponte fabrics which means they CAN be worn as pants. The haute grunge of the 90s is back: embrace it.
Lay on the layers
Don’t be scared to toss a skirt or even a dress over your leggings. The 90s are back in more than one way!
Stop, drop and roll
The almighty roll is not just for denim. These leggings are meant to be cuffed so toss on a bootie, and adjust that hem for a more casual day look.
Rock the crop
Sporting a legging doesn’t mean long tees are required. Change it up and try a chunky sweater or blouse for a sleeker, chic-er style. A cropped top is a nice twist from the ordinary.
Let the shoe shine
From flats and boots to pumps and mules – the art of the legging is its ability to go with a range of footwear. Bonus? Pack a second (sexier) pair to take a look from day to night.

I love wearing leggings. I doubt I will ever stop. They just provide so much extra comfort and are quite stylish. I will hate if they ever go out of style again, cause no thanks, I wont stop wearing them.

I feel the same way!!! Especially when I’m out with the kids it helps to be comfy and stylish.
