Try It, Style It: Leggings VS Tights

Try It, Style It is a section when every month I write about clothing items that are challenging to wear. Then you will show me how you style this clothing item in an outfit.
          

Leggings and tights are both a cute accessory and an essential in any girl's closet. 

 

LEGGINGS

          Leggings are perfect to wear with any casual outfit. Leggings are great to wear in colder weather like Fall or Winter. They are made of a thicker material. Usually leggings are footless. The lengths that they have are capri, ankle-length or knee-length. They are very comfortable, stretchy and easy to put on if your in a hurry in the morning. They are durable which is good if you are walking around a lot during a busy day at school. The most fun thing about leggings is that they come in a variety of different colors and patterns such as floral or zebra print. To avoid an unflattering look when wear ing leggings, do not wear capri leggings if you are shorter height because they will make you look even shorter. If you are curvy or plus size figure  do not wear brightly colored leggings. Instead try to wear solid color leggings such as brown or black.

 

TIGHTS

           Tights are made of thinner material. They cover the feet. They can be opaque or sheer. Tights are available in a variety such as bright colors, neon colors, fishnets, floral, or lace. They are definitely great for casual and dressy looks. You can wear them to dinner at a restaurant, at work, or to a school presentation. Tights can be knee-length or longer length. They are comfortable but can feel itchy. Being so thin the tights can rip or tear easily when worn frequently. But tights do look very mature and can accentuate your figure and legs well. 

Now its your turn to show me how you style this clothing item.

Take a photo of your outfit with tights or leggings. Then send it to me in a direct message (DM) on Instagram. I will post your outfit photo on Unseen Side Of The Scene Instagram page and on my blog!

Now Lets Get Started! 

                                              

                                Step One 

  

Open a magazine and flip through the pages, 

when you see a clothing item that you like. 

Draw a circle around it with a pen.

You can draw a circle around clothes, shoes, jewelry,

 jackets , makeup, celebrities or models or musicians that a have a similar style to you, 

hairstyles, even colors and shapes that inspire you.

                                           

                            Step Two

Use the scissors and cut along the lines. 

Cut out the image from the magazine. 

 

                                  

                         Step Three

Place the cut out image onto a piece

 of notebook paper and use the tape dispenser 

or stapler to attach the image onto the paper. 

 Next, using the pen write a category title on the top of the paper                                 

For each page, write a different category title. 

Example : JEANS 

Example: The category title labeled JEANs has an image

                of blues jeans on the notebook page.

                                    

                          Step Four 

On the notebook pages you can write 

inspiring qoutes. Pick qoutes about style, fashion ,

 positive self-esteem, self-confidence. You can 

also include song lyrics from your favorite songs. 

Example: "Wear what makes you feel happy"

                  - (insert author of qoute)

                                         

                           Step Five

Last step, place the notebook page into the 

binder. Insert the page onto the three rings and close them.

 If you want to you can also use a blank paper 

and draw on it and use it as a cover for your lookbook.

                         

                             Now you are all done. 

      You have created your own Fashion Lookbook!!!
