Wet look leggings are definitely a must have item this season, but can anyone pull them off? Or do you have to be a fashion expert to really make a statement in them? I decided to find out for myself.
On a recent trip to Lakeside, I found a pair in New Look for £14. I opted for the black but they come in all sorts of colours from silver and gold, to purple and blue. I also bought a long purple top as it's important to wear a top that covers your behind, unless you have a body like Mischa Barton and can pull it off.
The verdict? I was very impressed with the wet look leggings. They made my legs look smooth and slim and they made a change from the skinny jeans I usually wear on a night out.
They are also a stylish way to keep warm. I'm sure I'm not the only one to have worn 3 pairs of tights on a cold night out with my friends. And lets face it, if you live in the UK, wintery nights are not uncommon.
So my advice for those who don't think they'll be able to pull off the look is to invest in a good fitted pair, not too baggy around the knees or bum, and to buy a long coloured top. You're not going to know if it suits you unless you try it.
Yes or no to wet look leggings? Definitely yes.
