The Dos and Don'ts of Danskin Leggings

Danskin leggings are a very popular fashion trend nowadays. We see them in catwalks, on our favorite celebrities, and even on the street. However, this trend doesn't always look good. There are a few things you need to consider when wearing leggings. Because they can be a little hard to pull off, not everyone has a perfect legging fashion record. You need a little research and some fashion sense to get this trend to work. it can be very fashionable, but there's always that fine line between classy and tacky. These do's and don'ts might be able to help make wiser fashion choices when it comes to leggings.
Legging Do: Leggings worn with tight short skirts.

Layering Danskin leggings with a very short skirt can give you enough coverage; when we say short, we mean mid-thigh length and above. Leggings add a bit more oomph to any short skirt. It also makes wearing very short skirts (that only cover your butt) appropriate enough for everyday wear.

Legging Don't: Leggings worn with flared, loose or pleated mini-skirts.
This is a big no-no. It completely confuses the look as you want it to be sleek and smooth, not a disastrous mix of girly and rock-chick.

Legging Do: Leggings with very short shorts.
Danskin leggings worn with very short shorts give you a laid back, punk-rock feel without being too over the top. You can wear this with some high heeled ankle boots to give it a little bit of glamour. Choose lengths that go until your mid-thigh or above. Any shorter will confuse the look, and you'll barely be able to see the leggings. By the way, choose leggings that go up until your knee is best.

Legging Don't: Leggings that scream color.
Neon yellow, pink or orange leggings and footless tights are out! They look tacky, and are not really appropriate to wear during a night out. Stick to simple, basic colors for patterns in Danskin leggings, stick to clean and simple ones. Something to over the top will be overkill.

Legging Do: Leggings with a dress.
Danskin leggings and dresses can work, but only when worn correctly. Only jersey knit dresses or very short dresses work with leggings. You will also have to choose footwear that is appropriate. Flats or knee high boots usually work. However, this "do" can easily become a "don't" if you choose the wrong dress. The wrong footwear and length of the leggings can aggravate the situation. Dress carefully – don't overdo it.

Legging Don't: Leggings worn with high socks.
Danskin leggings and socks are not a good combination. This is most probably inspired from an aerobic-crazed 80's, when leg warmers and tights with leotards were all the rage. However, this is not a good look. You're much better off wearing your leggings with boots, if you must wear something high. The leggings are already underwear to protect your legs and you don't need another piece of clothing to cover them up. It would be completely pointless.
