The Legging Styling "Mistakes" Celebs Don't Care That They Make
Let’s just get to it, there’s really no such thing as a styling “mistake.” If you’re feeling a particular look, by all means just go for it—regardless of whether or not others consider it fashionable. Celebrities are one of the biggest proponents for not contriving to sartorial “rules.” In fact, we’ve recently gone over the skinny jeans and ankle boot mistakes they ignore. After further research, we also realized that anything goes for these fashion A-listers when it comes to wearing leggings as well.
To give you a taste of what we mean, we’re showcasing the legging “mistakes” celebs don’t care that they make. Keep scrolling to scope how Victoria Beckham, Ashley Graham, and Kim Kardashian West embrace their legging ’fits and shop inspired styles as well.
Stirrup leggings feel more casual and natural. We've often seen them paired with sneakers, Victoria Beckham proves that wearing them over pointed booties is actually quite forward.
Stilettos aren't the first shoe choice that probably comes to mind when you think of leggings, but as Ashley Graham is showcasing, the dressed-up heels can work for a sleek color-blocked ensemble.
Don't be afraid to try the monochromatic trend—yes, even with your colored leggings like Kim Kardashian West.
Throw out the age-old rule that leggings can't be pants, and embrace this Kate Moss look where she styles her black leggings almost like skinnies with a printed top, blazer, and booties.
Socks over leggings used to be the look for the '80s Jazzercise crowd, but the vibe actually brings a cool twist to a low-key travel ensemble like Rita Ora is donning here.
