Jeggings and leggings (how to rock them)

After the legging and the skinny jean,the latest pants to take the fashion world by storm are the jegging.

These are a cross between the denim jeans and the leggings,a new trend that i have seen flooding the Bulawayo streets.

I remember when i was in form 2,back in 2007,when leggings hit the streets.I had an outing with my friends where we all told each other that we were going to wear leggings.I remember begging my parents to buy me a pair,and they bought me a black one and a dress top that went with it.Boy,was I happy!Leggings used to be worn with a dress top that matched but gone are those days.Leggings can be worn with a top now.However one has to be careful how they wear them.

 

My first time seeing someone wearing jeggings,I thought it was too revealing.She was wearing a waist long tank top and jeggings.The girl was a bit fat and her top was too short to cover her behind.The sight was not so nice,not that i have anything against people who are fat,do not get me wrong.However,fashion trends are for everyone although we are not all supposed to wear the same type of clothes in the same way.This is why you should know the different ways in which to wear jeggings and leggings.

Jeggings are advisable to wear because they are much more comfortable than skinny jeans,they are more flexible.It is a more modest way to wearing leggings as pants.However I have come across people who have a tendency of wearing leggings as leggings.You should know that the two;leggings and jeggings are different.Leggings cannot be worn as pants because they will show every bump and dimple on your body.You can wear a top that slightly covers your bottom.You can only get away with wearing them as pants if you are a bit skinny as long as you don't draw attention.More so,if your leggings are of a dark colour like black,you can wear them as pants but if they are of a bright colour,you would be safe wearing them strictly as leggings.As much as you want everyone to look at you,i'm sure you don't want to be screaming "HELLO LOOK AT ME."On the other hand,jeggings can be worn with a normal top as they are worn the same way you wear denims.It all depends with how comfortable you are in them.

If you want to wear leggings as pants,you should pick a pair that has thicker material because it hides bumps and bulges better.Make sure you are not wearing tights.The biggest offense for any lady is to don tights thinking that she is wearing a pair of leggings.Basically you will be wearing a second skin.

The best thing you can accesorize with your legging or jegging look is CONFIDENCE.As much as your outfit looks good but lacks confidence,it won't be that attractive.This is why you have to wear something that you feel comfortable in as well.

How you can wear leggings at school

Jeggings for a sports game

While leggings are more casual,whereby you can wear them to school or for a sports game,jeggings can be worn as smart casual.You can pair them up with a blazer and a long tunic that will cover your behind.Stilletos and accesories will finish the look.Make sure that the jeggings are of a dark colour and the blazer is the one that talks.

The jegging formal look

Jeggings are not meant for everyone.Unlike well cut out jeans,they do not give a good look for chunky legs and they are not good at hiding flaws.They do not give you room to hide.

Therefore,it is all about getting a pair that suits you and your body shape.If you are creative enough,you can do a few tricks and illusions.
