Navy This, Brown That—Sorry, But 99% of the Time, Fashion People Only Wear Leggings in *This* Classic Color


Leggings have been on the tip of everyone’s tongues lately, and people are suddenly very interested in unexpected color options like light blue, taupe, brown, and navy. Personally, I’m all for owning a wide range of color options in this category (though, leggings in light shades will never be allowed in my house), but I would be remiss if I didn’t set the record straight about one thing. Some might be daring enough to wear different legging color trends to hot Pilates and Sculpt Society, but at the end of the day, black leggings will always reign supreme. They’re classic, flattering, and sweat-proof, and there’s a reason why, 99% of the time, fashion people choose black leggings for any workout-to-coffee scenarios.

In case you need proof, just see the matching black leggings that Laura Harrier and Lori Harvey wore first to a Pilates class and then to brunch at Jayde’s Market in Beverly Glen, a neighborhood in Los Angeles. For the afternoon occasion, Harrier wore a white, spaghetti-strap sports bra from ALO, which she paired with the yoga brand’s signature 7/8 High-Waist Airlift Leggings, a Dragon Diffusion woven bag, and cream-colored slippers. Harvey went for an all-black look, donning a strapless tee, Lululemon Align high-rise workout leggings, Saint Laurent sunglasses, and flip-flops.
