Yoga Pants? Flared Leggings? Whatever The Term, Here’s How To Style Them
The chokehold that skinny jeans had on a generation of women is slowly loosening. Straight legs and boot cuts have been strutting their way back to the mainstream, letting ankles everywhere breathe a sigh of relief. Now, wider cuts are crossing the border from jeans to leggings, bringing our athleisure a healthy dose of flare.
Since leggings began, gym girlies and athleisure enthusiasts have seen endless variations, from pockets to leather to the scrunch butt styles that some complain are too hot for gym bros to handle. Still, leggings haven't broken the form-fitting mold since ‘90s styles tapered off, meaning their variations have all shared a pretty consistent silhouette. The Y2K revival is welcoming back a wider range of cuts, even if there’s a significant identity crisis controversy over what to call them.
