Ooh la-la! Leggings are back

MANILA, Philippines - With the revival and renewed interest in 1980s dance movies like Fame and Flashdance, leggings are in the rhythm of fashion once more at SM.

This stylish blast from the past has successfully found its way from fitness clubs into the wardrobe of young Hollywood trendsetters like Lindsay Lohan and the Olsen twins. These are softer, less constricting alternatives to skinny jeans and are wonderful pieces for layering.

At SM, leggings come in a variety of lengths, prints, and designs from its in-house labels Blanc et Noir, Encore, and Elements. While classic black leggings will always be in fashion, there are new ways to dress your legs:

• Shimmer leggings shine like metallics and lame in bronze, silver, and onyx black shades. These are great for evening occasions and clubwear.

• Lace leggings are delicately feminine especially when worn with tunics and mini dresses. Definitely for the girlie and the lighthearted.

• Animal printed leggings exude that sophisticated uptown appeal.

• Hardware embellished leggings have that edgy excitement.

Great with oversize tees and sweaters, tunics, skirts, or mini-dresses, the leggings collection is available at the Ladies Wear Department of all SM stores.
