Leggings are a wardrobe staple for many. A go-to for you? Wonderful. You’re going to be quite interested in the intel coming your way. While scrolling through the feeds of some of my favourite fashion people, I saved a few outfit ideas that I think are particularly chic that feature leggings teamed with other of-the-moment basics

Sure, you may have a few pieces you tend to wear with your favourite leggings, but it could be worth considering pairing them with the elevated basics ahead to create those A+ looks now and into autumn. Below you’ll uncover the outfits I saved, along with shopping inspiration focused on both the basics that look chic with leggings, and yes, a few standout pairs of leggings if you could use a new pair.

1. Relaxed Knit

Style Notes: A relaxed knit is inherently chic and works flawlessly with leggings. This look is cool with the tube socks and trainers.

Shop the look:

This also comes in classic black and a fun green hue. 

This jumper is so timeless it comes back every year. 

This pair comes in three leg lengths for the perfect fit! 

2. Relaxed Button-Up Shirt

Style Notes: This ensemble is easy yet forward with the relaxed button-up shirt, leggings, and trendy mesh ballet flats.

Yellow is the breakthrough colour of the year. 

A white shirt is a wardrobe hero. 

Take style tips from Marilyn and opt for a stirrup style legging. d

3. Knit Dress + Bomber Jacket

Style Notes: You can't go wrong with a layered look for autumn. A dress over leggings and a bomber jacket on top is where it's at.

You can easily dress this up or down. 

Autumn is all about great light layers, like this faux leather bomber jacket. 

H&M has great basics at affordable prices. 

Another great opportunity for split hem leggings. 

4. Blazer

Style Notes: That perfect blazer will bring instant polish to any look—including a look like this with the leggings and boots.

The subtle pinstripes and oversized fit are very 2023. 

This one comes in sizes XS to 4XL. 

We've heard great things about Alo leggings. 

Trust us, lululemon's leggings are so comfortable.
