Leggings are some of the most comfortable kinds of bottoms out there, and there is a reason why they have never gone out of fashion all this while. Leggings were reserved for casual errands and workout sessions at the gym and other such non-formal outings. However, wearing leggings is even better when you can wear them to unconventional places, such as your workplace.
Not only are leggings snug and comfortable, but they are also fashionably conducive since you can pair them colourful pieces in your wardrobes and even experiment with layering with clothes that are looser. Here are some ways in which you can take wearing leggings to a whole new level, by introducing it to your formal closet.

A fabulous way of wearing leggings includes pairing it with a chic crop sweater alone with a textured leather skirt and your leggings, complete with a pair of black pumps. Even though this look is an all black stunner, you can still add a pop of colour with a chunky gold statement neckpiece.
8. Front-tied fashion statement

Your workplace should not stop you from making a fashion statement, and this is precisely what this outfit is able to do. Show a hint of midriff with a front-tied shirt and pair it with a pair of high-waist leggings. If you are wary of showing off the midriff, a shirt that has been tucked in works just as well.
The best thing about leggings is that even if you choose to wear them to you workplace, they are not likely to look odd or out of place because you can work with them and make them look like the most natural choice for your work day.
