As I spent time scrolling through my Saved folder on Instagram, I noticed a pattern. Yes, many of the looks I noted featured leggings as the key piece. It makes perfect sense given that the fashion crowd has been turning to leggings as a go-to elevated basic over the seasons.

This includes everything from more dressed-up looks with pieces like a tailored blazer and boots to casual ensembles with a moto jacket and sneakers.
