Lovely reader Karina emailed me the other day regarding ideas for flattering ways to wear leggings for those of us with a little bit bigger tummy area. Specifically she asked about what type of tops to wear with leggings so that “a little bit bigger tummy area” doesn’t get misinterpreted to “bun in the oven.”

As it turns out, I LOVE leggings and since I’m still out of the office and so don’t have an OOTD photo, I figure this is a great time to talk about how this giant wears leggings.
Layers, Layers, Layers
In my mind, leggings lend themselves to layering like nobody’s business. And layering can be a great way to disguise a midsection without looking too bulky. (A long scarf can help do that as well).

Put a Belt on It
Depending on where you belt and the width of your belt, belting can be a great way to highlight or even create a waist.

I always wear my leggings with boots. Even booties can help balance out a thicker upper body.
