Ladies who wear leggings, come in

What types of tops do you like to wear them with? I have leggings but never know how to pair them to make great outfits! Inspire me!

I wear them underneath dresses

I never like how tight the waist band is on leggings. I need to find a pair w a wide wasteband.

Are you going to buy a new pair LB or just looking for fashion advice?

This. I like how I can stretch a sundress into the fall by wearing it with leggings and a cardigan.

Edited for spelling.

Just looking for fashion advice. I have like one shirt that I wear with them, but that's about it. I can't seem to find inspiration or know what else to do. I have a pair of crop ones and full length ones...oh, they are black.

I wear them with dresses. I like the look of leggings with a long button up shirt but I'm not skinny enough to pull that off.

Dresses, tunics, skirts, long shirts. Tights also have the same effect. I've also worn H's work shirts with them by belting them. Oh, and long cardigans too.

I kind of like this idea! I might try it. He has some that are too small for him that I could steal!

Have you checked Pinterest?

I wear them with sweater dresses mostly. Similar to this one:

Sometimes I will pair it with a dress and a cardi, so I can get more use out of my dresses.

Then when the snow starts flying, I will pair it with a long button down, boots, and a scarf.

@amccul20 I always had the waistband issue too. I found these ones that have a wider band, and aren't tight. They have a few color options too. http://www.maurices.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=4379368&cp=11804844

It is so super comfortable. I do it when I'm bloated and it hides it

I have to to dresses because I'm too long torso'd to wear a shirt and leggings. Very few shirts are long enough to cover my bum

This is a good point! Whatever you are wearing them with should cover your bum. Leggings =/= pants.

Thankfully I'm short.

I'm with PPs: sweater dresses and tunics. I need to find some longer cardis to wear with mine, too. I have leggings on today!! I'll have to do an OOTD to show 'em off, lol.

With a tank top/shell with a cardigan. A longish sweater (not sweeter dress). Sometimes a blouse if it covers by butt. Or with a longish long sleeve t-shirt and scarf. Almost always with boots.

I will wear legging with any shirt that comes down to my butt. I don't like wearing them with anything that isn't as long as that. Tunics, tanks, dresses.

I'm with most people. I wear them with dresses and tunics. I don't wear them with long shirts as much now that I own skinny jeans/pants. You work for BR right? I love that they call their skinny pants leggings. I'm wearing a pair of them right now!

I wear leggings with tunics, dresses, or sweater dresses. I always wear flats or boots with them. 

Xan921

I only wear them with dresses and pair them with flats or flip flops in the summer.
