Is Everyone Ditching Their "Traditional" Leggings for This Style?
We have been fans of leggings for a long time now—that’s no secret. It’s tough to beat the flattering style to wear everywhere from the gym to a weekend coffee run to a comfortable outfit for the airport. But as the athleisure trend is rising and seemingly knows no bounds—there’s a new style we’ve started seeing everywhere and we don't know if you'll be ready for it: drop-crotch joggers.
The silhouette is more relaxed than leggings and can also easily transition to looks that work outside the gym, true. Try pairing yours with a cropped tee and trainers for a workout, or wear them with a voluminous top and pointed leather mules for a street style look. You can even follow Bella Hadid’s lead and make them work for the airport by wearing them with a bomber jacket, leather tote bag and cool embellished slides.

These joggers always sell out—and we can see why. Next up, how to wear a denim shirt now and forever.
