French Ladies Love Leggings


Leggings call attention to
heavy ankles.

The handbag can be a
screaming orange!


Paris streets are blooming with leggings in all colors. French women are reinventing the casual chic wearing assorted leggings with hip length tunics with the classic repetto ballerina shoes inspired by Chanel.

Can older women wear leggings?

"Of course if they have a good figure I think
leggings look sexy on older women. They cover
the hips and show the legs.

Leggings cover the skin (not so firm as we
grow older) and show the shape.

Another plus is that they look great with low
or flat shoes - a total winner for older women.

One of my favorites was black leggings paired
with a fresh white tunic boarderd with lace."

The flat, preferably black, ballerina type
shoe is a must to complete the outfit.

Ways you can wear leggings
