I Bought Fashion’s Biggest Trend Off Amazon for $4

Take a quick browse through our roundup of the best looks from New York fashion week and you’ll quickly see that bike shorts are one of the biggest trends worn to and from the shows. We first introduced the trend last season (thanks to Kim Kardashian repping the sporty shorts) and it’s slowly grown on everyone in the fashion industry. We even tested the trend for you a few months ago showing you how girls in Los Angeles and New York City style the biker look. So fast-forward to the streets of fashion week and you’ll see that fashion influencers have given in and found severs interesting ways to make the athletic shorts look incredibly stylish.

 I myself finally gave in to the trend and purchased two pairs off amazon for $4. I’m heading to Milan this week for fashion week and have already planning several outfits around the leggings-style shorts. Stay tuned for how I wear the biker pants and in the meantime let us know how you’re wearing the trend using the hashtag #WhoWhatWearing on Instagram.

You Won’t Catch Fashion Girls Wearing These Shoes With Leggings

With the popularity of leggings, inevitably we’re all going to want to get a little creative with how we wear them. In many cases, that means thinking outside the box when it comes to footwear. We’ve already discussed what to avoid wearing with leggings in general, but what about the all-important subject of shoes?

Given leggings’ slim-fitting silhouette and casual nature, determining which shoes will best complement them can be a bit perplexing—which is where we come in. As editors, we’ve been noticing fashion girls in fewer and fewer of a handful of shoe styles, at least paired with their leggings. So, naturally, we’ve been taking notes on what they’ve been wearing instead. The legging trend is here to stay for the foreseeable future, so we might as well make the most of it and pair them with shoes that will keep things as stylish as possible, right?

With that, keep scrolling to find out which seven shoe styles fashion girls have pretty much stopped wearing with leggings, and shop the coolest shoe trends to wear with them instead.
