Hold the sneakerinas. In my opinion, leggings look their chicest when styled more classically. Take this recent Jennifer Lopez look: keeping her foundation sleek with the perfect pair of form-fitting leggings, Jennifer crafted a poised outfit that she complemented with a classic pair of white chunky trainers. Rather than giving in to fleeting trends, the enduring silhouette kept things uncomplicated and chic and, in my opinion, makes the loungewear staple feel its most elevated.
(Image credit: Backgrid)As opposed to the slimline trainers that have dominated for so many seasons, these chunkier styles add a sculptural element that helps to lift the leg and elongate the frame, which always works so well with a lean pair of leggings. Meanwhile, they add just enough elevation to make the styling feel more intentional, not to mention offering the comfortable fit that makes trainers such an easy everyday choice.
Always inspired by a JLo look, read on to shop the leggings and white chunky trainers I'm recommending below.
