When you think about holiday parties, you might automatically think about glitz and glamour courtesy of pretty dresses, stunning shoes, and sparkly accessories. One item that never comes to mind (at least not at first) is leggings. Sure, maybe they make a brief cameo in the moments before you head out to the party, when you're lounging in your room figuring what to wear, or after your holiday party when you're already taking off all your makeup. Regardless, one thing we know for sure is that somehow leggings are never a part of your actual party outfit. This year though, it's time to change that. It’s time leggings join the party—literally.
No, we're not saying to give up on everything in life and simply wear boring leggings to all your holiday outings. What we want you to do is approach this ultra-comfortable garment with open arms and curiosity. Let’s give them a chance because deep down we all love a good fitted legging. They have become our go-to pair of pants when it comes to traveling and relaxing, so now it’s time to make our holiday outfits stand out while wearing this problematic fave garment.
