Whether they’re from Lululemon, GT Boutique, or Studio 11, your classic black leggings are probably the most versatile piece in your closet. From the gym to the office to a night out for drinks, black leggings are a staple in many peoples’ wardrobe. And rightfully so! They’re flattering, easy to wear, and look chic with so many colour and style combinations.
Here are 5 ways to style your classic black leggings this Fall, inspired by some of our favourite pieces in store this season!
Lounge
Relax... it's time to lounge.
Probably most classic way of wearing leggings... with a crewneck, sweatshirt, or hoodie.
We've paired leggings with our Z Supply Modern Weekender here!
Why we love to wear it: the length of the back of the sweater covers the bum comfortably.

Stay Comfy
Grab a cup of tea and your favourite book... it's time to get cozy.
When working with the comfy style, think oversized and cozy here... perfect for Fall!
Put on your favourite pair of leggings and let your mind run free with neutrals, colours etc. The goal here is comfort.
We love The Korner cardigan for the texture, colours, and length .

Work with layers
Maximize your wardrobe by wearing a few layers, like this:
This outfit is perfect for a day of adventure, running errands, or going to the farmers market!
Why we love it: This outfit looks put together but is still super comfy! Here we loved our cozy cowl neck sweater and made sure to layer a shacket on top
Thing to note: even with the jacket off, the sweater is still fitting properly with leggings, covers bum, etc. so we feel comfortable removing jacket.

The Fall classic Long Cardigan or Shacket
We love the Stockport jacket from Pink Martini! It's chic, classic, perfect length, and works well with so many other pieces you probably already have in your wardrobe. Don't be afraid to pair it with colour or a unique fabric like satin.
Bonus points: the versatility of layering can also work with a Fall jacket! We've also added a hat for extra cozy-ness.

When in doubt, accessorize!
Hats, scarves, mitts, and jewelry... it's all fair game!
Everyone has a black sweater and a black pair of leggings in their closet. Use these pieces as your base.
Here you can play with colour in your Fall/Winter accessories.

We’ve chose the Green pallet from ICHI because we love these beautiful soft accessories; they really will be keeping us warm this Fall.
Nicole's tips for leggings:
Make sure you are camel toe free! Choose leggings that are good quality to avoid the unwanted discomfort.
Do a squat test in front of a mirror to make sure you do not see underwear through your leggings when they stretch with your body.
Choose what you prefer when it comes to the length of top you wear with leggings. Some people prefer a longer top that covers the bum while others will pick a crop top! It really comes down to personal preference. Whatever you choose, just be sure you feel comfortable and confident.
We hope this week's blog has inspired you to wear your favourite black leggings again-- or simply re-style the ones you are obsessed with! That's it for now. Have a fabulous weekend and stay cozy.
