Leggings and coloured tights will be out in full force this winter, and it’s all about experimenting with patterns and different lengths. If you are starting out, you can find some cheap leggings from shops like Valley Girl or Target. We are loving purples, greens, yellows and traditional black.

Remember to wear your leggings as if they were tights…leggings worn as pants are not a good look unless you are going to the gym.

You can extend the wear from your summer wardrobe, dresses and short shorts look great over leggings. Team them with a pair of boots (long leather or short slouchy are in right now) and a waisted belt for a truly hip look. Have fun with it and mix and match items until you find a look that says “You”.

For those who aren’t blessed with super skinny, toned legs, wearing leggings underneath shorter outfits can be much more flattering and you will feel more confident.

Leggings look great under long tops or shift dresses. Try a sweater dress with a cute scarf to keep you warm and looking great.

For a simple, classy black and white look you can try:

1. Abstract Jacquard Dress – www.sportsgirl.com.au
2. Twist Knot Metallic Belt – www.asos.com
3. Rib Cuff Leggings – www.sportsgirl.com.au
4. Matilda Boots – www.dianaferrari.com.au

While wearing black leggings, a pair of cute coloured long socks over top can brighten up your look. They can also look stylish peaking over the top of your long boots.

You don’t want to go overboard with too many different colours, but a small splash like these yellow cuties from Kookai are perfect:

Shorts can look good over leggings, especially the brighter colours. High waisted black shorts are a good pick or you can try a short skirt.

 Even your summer denim shorts can be accessorized:
