Leggings are a wardrobe staple for many. A go-to for you? Wonderful. You’re going to be quite interested in the intel coming your way. While scrolling through the feeds of some of my favorite fashion people, I saved a few outfit ideas that I think are particularly chic that feature leggings teamed with other of-the-moment basics. 

Sure, you may have a few pieces you tend to wear with your favorite leggings, but it could be worth considering pairing them with the elevated basics ahead to create those A+ looks now and into fall. Below you’ll uncover the outfits I saved, along with shopping inspiration focused on both the basics that look chic with leggings, and yes, a few standout pairs of leggings if you could use a new pair.

An oversize knit is inherently chic and works flawlessly with leggings. This look is cool with the tube socks and sneakers.

This ensemble is easy yet forward with the relaxed button-up shirt, leggings, and trendy mesh ballet flats.

You can’t go wrong with a layered look for fall. A dress over leggings and a bomber jacket on top is where it’s at.

That perfect blazer will bring instant polish to any look—including a look like this with the leggings and boots.
