For years I abided by the rule that leggings do not constitute as pants. Annnd… I guess I need to retract my statement, because this has been the winter of leggings for me! I still love a good skinny jean, but there is just something so cozy about a pair of leggings when it is cold outside.
But I do have a few rules when wearing leggings that I never, ever budge on. There are somethings best left for the bedroom, if you know what I am saying! Without these things, I go back to my original statement of leggings not to be worn as pants. Don’t let these things slip.

Three Rules to Live and Die By When Wearing Leggings
- Always cover your butt. And the front. NOBODY wants to see your cheeks or your lady bits. Trust me on this. It doesn’t matter your size, shape, height. Cover up the goods, girl.
- Test your leggings before you wear them out. Bend over in front of your man, or in front of a mirror to make sure. Even if you cover everything up with a longer shirt, you still want to be 100% that your leggings ARE NOT see through. We have all had that uncomfortable moment when walking behind a girl with see through leggings. Do you tell her? Does she know? Does she just not care? Don’t be that girl.
- Keep them high waisted – Trust me on this one. I don’t know any body shape that doesn’t benefit from a higher rise. Especially when you are talking about spandex. A wide waistband and a high rise are going to give you a smoother shape to layer on.
