Models
Jeggings are usually divided into types depending on the season for which they are created. Light variations are ideal for late spring, summer and the first days of autumn, while models insulated with a special lining are maximally adapted for wearing in winter cold.

The peculiarity of the high waistline makes it possible to call jeggings one of the most optimal varieties of this type of clothing for women, "weighed down" with a few extra pounds. The silhouette will look more elongated and slender, especially if you choose a model, the legs of which will reach the narrowest point on the women's ankles.

In addition to the classic color scheme - denim, which refers to the denim roots of jeggings, they are available in a variety of shades and color combinations.Also in trend are deliberately sloppy, designer holes and imitation of abrasions, often complemented by rhinestones.

In addition to the obvious functional advantages, among the advantages of high-waisted jeggings should also be attributed to the fact that they very effectively emphasize the gracefulness of the figure of slender girls and unobtrusively camouflage overly rounded forms of "dummies".

If you have doubts when choosing a color for jeggings, you can choose proven options: light shades for the summer, dark blue or black for the winter season. But stylists recommend: before giving preference to safe classics, it is worth experimenting with bolder and more unexpected color schemes.

Despite the fact that such clothes look best on tall girls of model appearance, jeggings themselves are a real find for the owner of a figure of any proportions. Depending on the features of the build, they just need to be correctly combined with the rest of the wardrobe items.

Ladies of curvaceous forms should wear jeggings complete with a spacious and long top, and not with thin knitted blouses in tight-fitting - the latter option will draw unnecessary attention to the imperfections of the figure.

But for petite girls of small stature, jeggings with a high waist will just go with a light knitted top, especially in combination with high-speed shoes.

What to wear with?
Fashionistas and image specialists have long argued about what can and should not be worn with jeggings.

The first half states that high-waisted models should be combined with other things in the same way as regular leggings - that is, dresses or elongated tunics are in priority. Their opponents argue that jeans fashion trends play a decisive role in the compatibility of wardrobe items in this case - you should pay attention to sweatshirts "a la eighties" and short tops (although in the latter case, the wide belt of jeggings should still be completely covered by the top).

The truth, as it almost always happens, lies somewhere in the middle of these two opposing views. First of all, the image that is being formed should suit the girl so that she feels as comfortable and natural as possible in it. In case of difficulty, you should call on your friends for help, whose taste and sense of style there is no reason to doubt: the collective mind will say its weighty word.
