Yes, leggings are still in style. Leggings are a staple when it comes to casual ensembles, and many people still wear them regularly. It is true, however, that the classic plain black legging is a little less popular than it has been in the past, and a few new legging trends are emerging. These include:

- More colorful options, like burgundy, brown, grey, or deep green.
- Stirrup leggings (leggings that have a loop that goes under the foot).
- Flare leggings (leggings that flare out at the calf down to the hem).
- Capri leggings.
- Leggings with flat shoes, like loafers, flats, or sneakers.
- Leggings with crew-length socks pulled up over the bottom of the pants.
Leggings are still in style! You no longer have to wear them just for the gym or sporty walks. The way we wear them evolves around the time of the year, and here are a few tips on how to style them.

For Autumn/ Winter time:
- You can pair black or beige leggings with a nice neutral oversized sweater or a blouse. For the sweater, you can also wear a white button-down underneath. It will create nice layers and add a more elegant vibe to your look. To achieve more street style, you can wear a nice cap. For colder days - add a biker jacket. Finish this look with a crossbody bag and you’re ready to go.
- If you like feeling comfy at work but also want to keep a nice formal look - wear black leggings with an oversized blazer and white shirt. Add a nice waist belt & high boots. Sneakers are also a good match! If you want to skip the blazer, you can consider wearing a long tunic-style blouse or structured knit.
- A great way to achieve an effortless look with leggings is to choose the ones with faux leather and wear them with a white button-down or oversized sweater.
For Spring/Summer time:
- For warmer days, shorter leggings will be a better option - you can pair them with a nice short-sleeve button-down and sneakers or sandals on a bigger platform to create a nice balance between sporty and casual style.

How to shave down there
Hi, I’m trying to start being more intentional about shaving now that I’m dating again and I’d like some advice on getting a cleaner shave down in my personal area. I trim to the best of my ability, but it always feels kind of like there’s probably a better option than what I’m doing? It looks okay I think, but there are always bumps and the hair kind of grows back unevenly, which I think means I’m doing something wrong? Any tips on getting a cleaner or more uniform shave down there? I’m a woman, just FYI.

Hello! I’ve finally decided to take the plunge and get a septum piercing. I’m super excited! Unfortunately, I’ve only ever pierced my ears before (and that was back when I was really young). What should I be looking out for? I guess, what would you tell someone getting a septum piercing for the first time? I’m interested in anything and everything! Cost, healing process, tips on caring for it, etc.
