15 Jumpers That Make Our Leggings Look Luxe
Leggings are the one item we can guarantee that you’ll find in any woman’s wardrobe. Which is why we’re dedicated to finding the coolest styles, newest trends, and innovative ways to wear all your favourite pairs. From yoga class to our daily walks and everything in between, leggings are our go-to piece to cosy up in (and still look cool doing it). And while we wish there were endless ways to wear them, the fact is that their body-hugging shape looks best when paired with some length for a necessary balance.
The one piece that makes wearing leggings alone totally doable? A long sweater or cardigan. The trick is to look for knits that are longer than the average, hitting about mid-thigh. Luckily, there are plenty of worthy options out there and we've sifted through them so that you can face the harsh winter that still lies ahead armed with this cosy outfit combo. Pair your sweater and leggings with a pair of trainers or boots for the perfect laid-back look. Honestly, you may never want to wear your jeans again.
Go on to see how to wear long jumpers with leggings, and then shop the knits we love.
Style Notes: Swap your black jeans for a pair of leggings with this sweater and sneakers look. Retro trainers are the perfect finishing touch for a comfy yet cool outfit.
Style Notes: For a sporty cool approach, layer a hoodie underneath a longline jacket with leggings and sneakers (and don't forget tall socks for a retro feel).
Style Notes: Take a style tip from Gigi Hadid and try a long top under your long sweater with leggings and heeled boots for a comfortable outfit that you can wear anywhere. Your new weekend errand running outfit, found.
Style Notes: Try a pair of pedal pusher leggings with a long duster jacket or sweater for an updated version of the classic legging look. The perfect balance of chic and comfortable, this cold-weather look is definitely one to copy.
Style Notes: Leggings and ankle boots are a tricky combo to pull off, but styled with a chunky knit and trench coat, it somehow works.
