Why not add a splash of color to your wardrobe this season with the latest colored jeggings? Softer and more comfortable than skinny jeans, jeggings have the look of jeans with the comfort and superior stretch of leggings and their super-slim fit is particularly flattering on petite women.

This season it’s all about vibrant hues and pretty pastel shades to mix and match as you like. Jeggings look great for a night out with heeled shoe boots or peep-toe court shoes, or dress them down for daytime with biker boots or pretty flats. Coloured jeggings are a wardrobe staple. For a fresh look, teal or turquoise jeggings look stunning teamed with pretty neutral pumps and a blouse – a great look for dress-down Friday at the office or after-work drinks.
Biker Chic
If you’re looking to add some serious attitude to your look this spring and summer, black or khaki jeggings are a great way to inject some rebellious style – add a pair of buckled ankle boots, skull vest and plenty of statement jewelry and you’ll be rocking it! This season neutral jeggings in shades of chocolate brown, stone and even peach are all great colours to be seen in. And whilst you might think peach is pretty, adding Gothic-style accessories and funky boots is a great combination to toughen up this look.
Skinnies
Everyone has experienced skinny jeans that go baggy around the knees and don’t fit properly after a few washes. But with the extra elastic in jeggings, you’ll never suffer from this problem. Jeggings mold perfectly to your figure for a sleek, stylish look that’s hot this summer and petite girls can add heels for a leg-lengthening style. You’ll find that jeggings for SS13 are vibrant – think funky sea-green ones for a fresh, summery look. Teamed with an oversized white vest and blue pumps, they are sure to attract attention!
Prints
Prints are another hot tip for this season, with everything from tie-dye to paisley adorning the legs of women across the country. Pick a pretty pair of pink paisley-patterned jeggings and team with a simple black vest and open-toe boots for a look that’s perfect for shopping and cocktails with the girls. Tie-dye jeggings look perfect with gladiator sandals and an oversized band tee to create a relaxed weekend look that screams summer.
Whatever color of jeggings you choose for this summer, make sure that you think outside of the box. You can be bold, brave and beautiful in vibrant blue or pretty peach and enjoy the comfort of leggings with the stylish look of jeans for the perfect summer outfit.
