    The modern legwarmer look is appropriate for adults, especially paired with boots.

    Physically, this may be possible, but it is not the proper look. Legwarmers do not go over shoewear.
  • Question
    Can I wear leg warmers with sandals?
    Community Answer
    No! Please don't do this. It would be like wearing socks with sandals, a big down jacket with shorts or flip flops in the rain, all of which are not ideal.

    Can leg warmers go over the knee?

    Yes. Wearing them over the knee adds length to your leg if it closely matches your shoe or boot color.

    It's possible, but it would not be weather appropriate, and it would probably look a little silly.
  • Question
    How do I keep my leg warmers from sliding down my leg?

    Try fashion tape. It is used to keep clothes, straps, etc. from sliding out of place.
  • Question
    Can I wear leg warmers with leggings?
    Community Answer
    Yes, this looks very good. To balance out a pear shape, wear the same color leggings. If not, go monochromatic.
  • Question
    Should the wide or narrow end go on first?
    Community Answer
    They will follow the shape of your leg better if the narrow end is at your ankle; however, if your leg warmers start to get really stretched out, you can wear them the other way so they stay up a little better.

    This would be fine, it is your style and you will make it work for you.
  • Question
    Can I wear black leg warmers with light blue jeans?
    Otterly Badgerific
    Top Answerer
    Yes, this would be a fine combination. Black and denim blue match well together and are complementary. You may find it easier to use skinny jeans rather than jeans with flared or wide bottoms though, as the leg warmers need to slip over the jeans with ease.
