If you're a fan of leggings but worry that there's no place for them outside of spin class, we've made a game-changing discovery that you might benefit from. While recently scrolling through H&M's new arrivals section, we couldn't help but notice an item classified as "treggings." Naturally, we were intrigued by what we could only assume was a trouser-leggings hybrid, and sure enough, we were proven correct. H&M's treggings are surprisingly sleek (much more so than its jegging alternatives). You could even fool everyone and get away with wearing this dressy version of leggings to work. 

H&M's treggings in question feature a flattering centre seam and concealed waistband. We did a little investigating and found that the brand has other styles of treggings available (there's around 40 available right now, although we'd personally avoid the more colourful options as they feel a bit young), but we're partial to the new slim-fit version, which is even available in a touch-feeling faux suede version we'd think as pretty useful for the coming autumn season.

Given the immense popularity of leggings these days, we wouldn't be surprised to see this new style evolve into a treggings trend.
