The leaves are changing and the crispness in the air can only mean one thing. Autumn is finally here!
As the leaves turn brown and you indulge in your first pumpkin spice latte of the year, now is the time to start thinking about your seasonal wardrobe. Autumn leggings are our go-to to create stylish and comfortable outfits for almost any occasion. They’re perfect for layering and work in all weather conditions.
Llama Leisure’s leggings are a transitional piece to see you through autumn as the temperatures start to drop. These cosy leggings give you comfort and versatility as a wardrobe staple for autumn.
We’re taking an in-depth look at autumn leggings with advice on how to style leggings in the colder months, with our top picks for autumn accessories.
Why Leggings Are Perfect for Autumn
Autumn can be a tricky season to dress for. While the temperatures are lower, it’s not unusual to get the occasional burst of sunshine – or an unexpected rain shower. As you pack up your summer clothing until next year, it’s important to consider what clothes work best for autumn.
Leggings tick all the boxes as everyday staples that provide warmth without sacrificing style. They’re a comfortable alternative to jeans and an ideal investment in your closet, making it easy to mix and match them with your favourite pieces. The right accessories and shoes can quickly take your autumn leggings from day to night.
Our leggings are designed with the season in mind thanks to our autumn-inspired designs to get you in the seasonal mood. These leggings incorporate an autumn colour palette with lots of subtle and quirkier pattern choices to choose from.
Styling Tips for Leggings this Autumn
The best leggings for autumn are ones you can imagine styling in at least two or three different ways. Leggings are the perfect base for creating a warm autumn outfit by layering pieces together. We’re sharing five outfit ideas and styling tips for how to wear your new autumn leggings.
Oversized Sweatshirts
The best autumn days can be when you stay inside with a hot drink and watch your favourite Halloween movies. Oversized sweatshirts are the perfect match for autumn leggings, giving you a cosy, casual look.
Earth-tone neutrals like sage green, camel and brown are great for styling your favourite Llama Leisure leggings. You can add a fun pop of colour by coordinating your oversized sweatshirt with your leggings. We like styling the Hetty Hedgehog autumn leggings with a dark pink sweater for a darker take on pastels.
Long Coats
The most important piece when layering is your outerwear. Long coats give you extra warmth and create the illusion of a longer silhouette. A long coat, like a classic trend, gives you an effortlessly chic look and can be styled with any leggings.
When investing in a long coat, stick to neutral shades or an autumn colour palette to get the most wear out of your new pieces. A red trench coat would elevate our Woodland Paws leggings for a perfect weekend look with an elevated feel.
Boots
Don’t forget about your footwear! Once autumn hits, you’ve got to be ready to dodge the puddles and the risk of getting caught in a rainstorm. It’s time to retire your sandals till next spring and bring out your favourite boots!
The fitted hemline on our leggings makes them easy to style with any type of boots, from ankle boots to taller, knee-high boots. Ankle boots are a great alternative to sneakers with high heel boots taking your leggings from day to night. Knee-high boots with leggings give you an autumn-appropriate, equestrian-inspired look, great for running errands at the weekend or date night.
Boots can also be a clever way of hiding fluffy socks if you want to keep your feet cosy in autumn. If you’re wearing ankle boots, choose a boot that sits above the hemline of your leggings for a sleek look.
Layered Tops
Layering is your best friend for autumn styling. You want to use different layers that you can take on and off throughout the day, depending on the weather. Think of your base layer as part of your all-day outfit with another top or cardigan as your extra layer.
Flannels, tunics and cardigans are easy to style with a long-sleeve sweater or a cotton t-shirt. You can wear your layered tops together or carry your extra layer in your bag. Cardigans are having a major moment and they’re the perfect cosy staple to wear with autumn leggings.
You can style our Whispering Woods leggings with a black cotton long-sleeve top and an oversized knitted cardigan. Finish off your outfit with white sneakers or black ankle boots for the ultimate autumnal look.
Scarves and Beanies
Your layers don’t stop with a flannel or cardigan. Scarves and beanies are a stylish way to stay warm and keep yourself cosy, whether you’re commuting to work or grabbing a coffee. Scarves and beanies are a great way to incorporate an autumn colour palette into your outfit.
The standout colour trends for autumn/winter 2024 are khaki green, dusty pink, muted yellow and cobalt blue. Look for fabrics like wool and cashmere blends for extra warmth.
Autumn Accessories for Leggings
Accessories are the key pieces for any autumnal look. Use your autumn leggings as the starting piece of your outfit and have fun with your accessories. They’re an easy way to incorporate your personality and trends. A classic piece like a leather bag can balance or accentuate the pattern of your leggings.
If your autumn leggings incorporate a bold colour, you can coordinate your jewellery or a statement belt to match. Accessories help to transition your leggings from day to night to make them even more versatile.
