Jennifer Lopez Styled Her Trainers With the Sleekest Leggings Trend

I realise that might sound like a bold take, but the ubiquitous jeans-and-trainers pairing has never quite sat right with me. There’s something about the way denim bunches around a chunky sole that, on me at least, never, ever looks polished. In contrast, black leggings offer a cleaner, more streamlined base that lets your trainers look their sleekest.

Making my case, Jennifer Lopez stepped out this week in the enduringly cool formula. Opting for a pair of high-waisted black leggings that sculpted her silhouette from hip to ankle, she paired them with a second-skin top in a matching stretch fabric. Finishing her outfit with a hint of glamour, a monogrammed Dior Groove bag added quiet luxury, whilst oversized aviator sunglasses framed her pulled-back ponytail.

Where jeans might have tipped the outfit into something more casual, or even clunky, JLo‘s leggings refined it, giving the trainers a sharper, more considered foundation. Add in the comfort factor, and it’s a combination that’s hard to argue with.
