Everyone's going crazy for the slim!

Leggings

Eric Bompard

Last seen in the 80s and 90s, leggings are back!

Avoid wearing them with sports shoes if you don’t want to look like you’ve just stepped out of an aerobics class circa 1985.

If you’re not too keen on leggings that go right down to the ankle, try wearing dark opaque tights which will have the same effect worn with a short skirt and boots.
