Large Ladies SHOULD Wear Leggings!

For as long as I can remember, I have heard the saying Fat girls shouldn’t wear leggings (or jeggings or gym wear). In fact, if a lot of the people had their way, fat girls wouldn’t leave the house. BUT you know what? Large ladies are fighting back and wearing what they want, no matter what people say. There are so many reasons why large ladies should wear leggings, and we are going to chat about them today. We were gifted the intense pink Leggings from Love Leggings. They are £16.00 a pair.

In the words of Mika – Big girls, you are beautiful!

Why You Should Wear Leggings

Leggings are comfortable and easy to wear. You can wear them under trousers in the winter to keep extra warm. Or you can wear them as they are in the summer. They are comfortable to lounge around in and easy to wear outside the house too. I personally wear leggings to travel in if I am going anywhere because they are comfortable. And I will wear cycling shorts if I am on holiday. Cycling shorts underneath a skirt in the summer are also great for chubb rub.

You should not be worried about showing off your natural body shape. This is who you are and you need to embrace it.

How To Wear Leggings

Leggings are easy to slip on and off, and as they are plain you can dress them up with whatever you like. But here are some tips on how to wear leggings to feel comfortable.

Wear Longer Tops

Wear longer tops with a pair of leggings. Short tops do nothing for you if you are wearing leggings. If you have a tunic dress, skater dress or mini dress, that you don’t feel confident wearing. Then you can pair it up with a pair of leggings, to give you a little bit of confidence. You can always remove the leggings later if you wish.

The ideal length is below the top of the bottom and above the knees. If you feel uncomfortable with your thighs, then take your top further down over them. If your thighs are sexy and look awesome, then show them off.

Wear good Quality Leggings

You can get a cheap pair of leggings from Primark for £3 or 2 pairs for a tenner from the supermarket. But they are fine if you want to be that person that walks down the high street with all your bits and underwear on show. These leggings are fast fashion, they are knocked out in a factory abroad where someone is paid a pittance. The cheapest fabrics are used and people tend to throw the clothes away after a couple of wears.

Good quality leggings will fit you better because they are designed for people of different sizes. Not one design just in a bigger size. They will be made of a better material like the ones from Love Leggings. They are much thicker for the winter weather, so they will keep you warmer when you go out too. Better quality leggings will keep you all in shape, instead of letting it all fall out. High waisted leggings will be more fitting too. Although the leggings that we have are shorted than the picture on the website, I actually preferthem like that.

Avoid Chunky Shoes

Chunky shoes will make your whole outfit look frumpy and not as attractive as you think you look. Flats, trainers, sandals and low stilettos are the best shoes to wear with leggings. If you wear high stilettos with a pair of leggings, you will end up looking like you are going to a nightclub, whilst you do your weekly shop.

Know What Colours Are Flattering To Your Body Shape

Find a colour that suits you and will be flattering on your body. Although black leggings look slimming, they can be very hot and stuffy to wear. Black and navy leggings make you look taller, so therefore slimmer. White leggings go with everything but they might not be the colour for you.

Bright colours like these intense pink leggings are great for fun and confidence. This colour is awesome and makes you stand out in the crowd. Intense colours are colourful, powerful and get peoples attention. You should try all the bright colours in the Love Leggings range.

Own Your Look

Whatever leggings you decide to wear, you need to own your look. You wear your clothes, they do not wear you. Feel confident in them and feel sexy. Wear them where and when you want and dress them up or down for different occasions. It doesn’t matter what size you are, you look awesome in them. Yes, large ladies should wear leggings!
