With activewear and leisurewear rising the ranks of popular everyday attire, leggings have become a year-round wardrobe staple. Whether a chic high-waisted pair you wear to the gym (and to be honest, coffee after) or a comfy pair for hanging at home whilst bingeing on the latest Netflix series, our relationship with leggings has come a long way.
And while the jury is still out on whether leggings are an acceptable replacement for pants—the Olsen twins making a strong case for the affirmative—there’s no denying they’re perfect for layering in the cooler months. However, as the temperature drops, you may find your go-to pair just isn’t warm enough. It could be time to update your wardrobe with a pair of fleece-lined leggings.
Unlike simple cotton leggings, fleece-lined leggings will keep you protected from the cold and wind making them the ideal clothing option if you’re planning a ski trip. You can even just pull them on under a dress for an extra layer of warmth when you head to work or pair them with a slouchy jumper for the perfect winter weekend outfit.
You will find they are still versatile, comfortable, and affordable as your cotton pairs, just with that extra layer of warmth.
Here, we’ve rounded up our top nine pairs of women’s fleece-lined leggings to keep you cosy whatever you get up to this winter.
