Is it okay to wear workout pants that have a slight shine?
Is it okay to wear workout pants that have a slight shine? I have a big butt compared to all the stick-thin people in my Zumba class, and I wonder if they're judging me for my pants. Kaye P. is working it out in Buffalo NY.
A few years ago, shiny leggings were reserved for super-outgoing fitness instructors, avant-garde stylists, and the occasional big night out (in black only—to resemble leather). But today they come in a rainbow of colors, from baby pink to kelly green, and a variety of patterns—and everyone rocks them. In other words, shiny leggings have morphed into an activewear staple that deserves a spot in your closet next to your stacks of basic workout pants. So, continue to rock your work out leggings and when you notice people glancing at you, know they are just admiring your style.
To outfit shiny work out pants play with textures. Keep the shine to the bottom and pair with basic cotton or jersey knit top or sweatshirt.
