We all know that feeling. Sitting at home in your leggings moments before going out and thinking:
“Oh, alright. I guess I’ll put on some jeans before I go…”
Recently I got a pair of leggings and sports bra from the brand Girlfriend Collective. I felt like I was walking around in a (form-fitting) cloud. It was sublime.
My next thought? How can I sneakily wear these leggings out and about without looking like I’d just been at the gym? After playing around in my closet, I came up with some quick ways to jazz up your leggings.
Before hopping into the fits, I want to quickly sing my praises for Girlfriend Collective. Girlfriend Collective is a wonderful company for three main reasons:
- They’re a sustainable brand–Their leggings are made from used water bottles.
- They’re made well–The quality of the clothing is great, and they pay fair wages.
- They use diverse range of models to promote their line.
Here’s a little more about their process!
