There are a variety of ways to style leggings and tunics. The key is to find the right pairings and avoid looking too casual or dressy!
For a polished look, choose long-sleeved tunics and layer them over a sleeveless top. Add a brimmed hat and a scarf to complement your outfit.
Long Shirts
When it comes to wearing a long shirt with leggings and tunics, the key is to choose tops that fit well. Choosing tops that are too loose will create an unflattering look. Instead, try to find tops a few inches shorter than your leggings and end at your hips or slightly higher.
Another way to dress up your outfit is to add a long sweater. Adding a sweater will add color and warmth to your look and make you feel more comfortable. This sweater can be worn over a long tunic, short dress, or pants.
If you want to make your outfit more formal, you can pair a long shirt with a tunic and a belt. The belt will help define your waist and elongate your legs, while the tunic will help give you extra coverage.
To keep your look on the conservative side, you can wear a black tunic with black leggings. However, if you want to go for a more playful outfit, you can also choose to wear a white or blue tunic with black leggings.
When it comes to shoes, you can wear any pair of shoes that will help to elongate your legs. Tall flat boots will work really well, as will short booties or ballet flats. Alternatively, you can choose to go for a pair of heeled or wedged shoes.
You can wear leggings with long coats or jackets depending on the season. This way, you can extend your wardrobe into the autumn and winter seasons.
A patterned tunic is a great way to spice up your outfit. The print can either be a simple one or something more elaborate. It is an ideal choice for the office but also suitable for a night out on the town.
The key to dressing up a tunic is to pick out the right color and pattern. For example, a solid red tunic with black or white leggings looks incredibly stylish.
When it comes to accessories, you can wear a cross bag with a tunic or a long necklace for a more feminine look. If you want to add a little flair to your outfit, you can also wear a funky pair of earrings.
Long Cardigans
There are a variety of ways to style long cardigans with leggings and tunics. These outfits are comfortable, easy to assemble, and look modern and stylish. The key is to find a long cardigan that looks good on your body type and choose an appropriate top underneath the sweater.
If you’re a petite woman or you have a larger bust, a long cardigan may feel too bulky layered over a tank top or camisole. Wear a fitted top that covers your front and back, like a button-down or T-shirt to avoid this. This will balance out your shape and create a balanced look.
Another way to dress up in a long cardigan is to pair it with a skirt. This is a great look for both casual and professional occasions. You can dress it down for a more laid-back look with a tee and jeans.
You can also pair a long cardigan with khaki pants, which are becoming more and more popular. They look dressier than jeans and can be worn with almost anything. They can even be dressed up with a blazer and heels, making them the perfect piece to wear on date nights.
Alternatively, you can style a long cardigan with a jumpsuit. This is a look that can work for any body type and is extremely versatile, especially during the fall or winter. You can pair the jumpsuit with a long cardigan in a lighter color and add tall boots or booties to complete your look.
This is a great look to wear to work or around town, especially in the fall or winter when it’s a little colder. You can dress this outfit with heels and a clutch or white sneakers.
When choosing a cardigan to wear with leggings, ensure it hits your mid-thigh. This will balance out the tightness of your bottoms and prevent the cardigan from looking too short on you. This is especially important if you have a longer torso, as a cropped cardigan can give the impression that your lower body is shorter than it actually is.
Short Dresses
If you’re looking for a stylish way to wear leggings, consider wearing them with short dresses. This is a perfect combination for spring and summer, but it can also be a nice way to dress up your outfit in the winter too.
Whether you’re going to the mall, running errands, or attending a social function, a short dress will look great with leggings. The key is to find the right pair of pants that won’t make you look saggy at the knees or thighs.
Tight leggings look best under dresses, but they can also work with loose ones. You can even get away with a three-quarter length legging under a long knee-length dress to slim your thighs and calves.
Another thing to keep in mind when wearing a dress with leggings is the 1/3-2/3 rule. This popular styling guide divides your figure into three sections: two-thirds of the body covered, and the third can be uncovered or in a separate garment.
This rule is particularly effective when it comes to short and mini dresses, as these usually fall under the two-thirds covered rule. In addition, this guide helps you to look more balanced and less bulky.
You can also try pairing a patterned or floral dress with tights in a neutral color, such as black, navy blue, or grey. This will add a pop of color to your outfit without sacrificing the streamlined feel of the dress.
A short sleeve button-down shirtdress in a casual print works well with thick black leggings and flat riding boots in the springtime. The dress will add a touch of class to your look, while the riding boots will give you a polished appearance.
If you’re looking for a more sophisticated outfit, you can pair black leggings with a printed t-shirt and a dark-colored tunic dress in the spring or autumn. You can also pair a pink polka dot dress with black patterned leggings for a fun, flirty look that will turn heads.
You can also mix it up with a satiny dress and black patterned leggings for an evening date or a fun dinner out. This will give your outfit a glam, sexy look ideal for going out on a date or dancing with your friends.
Cover-Ups
When you are putting together your outfit for the beach or pool you will want to look for cover-ups that can go with leggings and tunics. You will also want to choose something easy to get on and off as you will be moving around a lot. You can even wear one over a pair of shorts, so you don’t have to worry about getting your shorts wet.
Tunics are great to wear as a cover-up because they are light and airy and come in a variety of styles and prints. This straight-cut sleeveless tunic dress (below) from Ralph Lauren is a perfect example of this. It features a scoop neckline, V-neck slit, and side button detailing. It would look great over a bathing suit, and you could easily pair it with boots or sandals for a more casual vacation look.
You can also find a number of caftans that you can layer over your swimsuit as well. These are often quite long and flowing, so they can be a bit dramatic and can be very comfortable to wear all day. These cover-ups are very popular in summer and come in all sorts of colors and prints.
Another type of cover-up that you can wear over your tunic is a wrap dress. These are incredibly flattering and come in a wide range of sizes to suit all body types. They are also very comfortable and easy to wear on holiday as they don’t take up too much room in your suitcase.
A kimono is another option for your summer wardrobe as they are very lightweight and often made from sheer fabric, so you can easily see through them. They are also very easy to take off and on, so you can use them to transition your beach outfit into the evening without having to change.
Lastly, you can also wear pants as a cover-up if you are looking for something more edgy and fun to wear. You can get these in a variety of fabrics, including cotton, silk, and linen. You can find a few that have a sheer pattern and some that are printed, which will help you add some color and pattern to your look.
