Choose A Fabric That Suits You

The first thing to ask yourself when choosing plus size legwear is to differentiate between leggings and tights. Can you see through the material at all? If yes, you have tights so make sure to wear appropriate attire in order to stay class. If no, you have leggings. Read further down to see suggested style tips.
In order to break things down by fabric here are a few simple rules to pay attention to. First, a higher elastane content means more flexibility. Do you want flexible hosiery that moves with your or do you have fashion tights where it is important to keep the pattern intact? Second, knit tights that contain wool or cotton are typically warmer than traditional nylon, however materials other than nylon tend to be more durable. Lastly, is transparency or opacity more important? Sheer or transparent tights, especially in nude tones, can be helpful during the transition from spring to summer when your legs need a bit of bronzing or you just want a flawless appearance. Nude tones also go well with open toed sandals and high heels. Opaque tights can work any time of the year and are a basic wardrobe necessity. Consider how opaque you would like your tights, as well as whether they should come with a matte appearance.

Carefully Consider Sizing

If your leggings fit snugly throughout the legs and hips without making a "pooch" area around the stomach and stay up comfortably throughout the day, you've found the correct fit. If your leggings are too tight and create a muffin top, or squeeze areas of the body so that they are unmovable or constricted, you've probably got the wrong size. The correct size always helps legwear that was intended to be opaque stay that way. If you have problems with your legwear falling down off your stomach, you've also likely got the wrong size. High waisted legwear helps deter this problem. However, if you do continue to have a falling down problem, consider wearing a tank top that tucks under the leggings so the material gets a better grip than bare skin.

Choose the Correct Tops and Shoes

If you are opting for leggings, a hip length top usually makes a perfect companion to complete a stylish outfit. Not anything that is too tight or short; in this case looser is better so that the lovely legwear that you've chosen is accentuated. Items such as tunics, oversized sweaters, dresses, and long shirts can help your achieve the same appearance. If you have short legs, you can give the illusion that they are longer by tucking in your leggings into your shoes, as well as under your top. If you have specific problem areas, find an accessory that matches with your outfit as a whole to enhance it. Shapewear is often a perfect solution to these problems as shapewear helps to slim down any figure, while also helping to flatten down seams.

Don't Forget Confidence

The most stylish part of any woman's wardrobe is her confidence. Once you feel more comfortable in the correct fitting clothing, show off how great you feel in them. Having your own personal swagger trumps all fashion accessories in the end.
