Denim leggings are the new comfortable-yet-sexy item that we’re craving right now.  With all the comfort of stretchy leggings, jeggings (as this jeans-leggings hybrid is also called) offer the classic, versatile styling of skinny jeans.  The first step to pulling off this trend is picking the right denim legging for you.  Dark styles that slim and lengthen are my favorite.  The Hudson Jeans jeggings, top left, and Paige Denim jeggings, top right, are a great pick for all body types.

Once you’ve found your perfect pair of jeggings, how will you wear them?  Here are three ways to incorporate denim leggings into your wardrobe:

The Sophisticate
The sophisticated look is all about dressing up the jeggings, like you would dress up jeans.  Add a pair of sleek pumps and a tailored blazer over a long top.  Platform heels are a great choice.

The Casual Classic
The casual classic look is very Audrey Hepburn, swapping in black denim leggings for black cigarette pants.  Add a long, nautical striped top and a pair of cute ballet flats, like Tory Burch’s Reva or Steve Madden’s Heavenly Flat.

The Girl Out on the Town
For a night out, add to the sexiness of the sleek silhouette of denim leggings with a sparkly top and our favorite hot shoe, the OTK boot.  On a tight budget?  Check out this sequin tunic from a.n.a., it’s just $24.99!  If you want less shimmer, try the Zoa Sequin Panel Tunic.  The sequin design is limited to one shoulder/sleeve.  It would look great with some silver bangles or a cuff bracelet.
