Question

Can I wear leg warmers over my high boots?

Heather Kenyon-Haff

Top Answerer

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.

Question

Can leg warmers go over the knee?

Community Answer

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

Question

Can I wear leg warmers with shorts?

Community Answer

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.

Can guys wear leg warmers?

Otterly Badgerific

Top Answerer

Yes, if you like wearing leg warmers, then go ahead and wear them. They are not gender-specific and can be a good way to keep the lower leg region comfortably warm without overheating.

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.

Question

How do I keep my leg warmers from falling down? They’re flared, and they slip whenever I walk.

Jamie

Community Answer

Use a hair tie to keep them up. You put the hair tie on your leg and then tuck the leg warmer into the hair tie.
