Leggings, Jeggings, and Treggings - What's The Difference?

We started off with the humble churidar made of cotton or silk but with lycra entering into our lives big time, our life actually changed, and for the better.
When leggings initially entered the Indian market girls would be seen wearing them with the humble kurti. The leggings would offer more comfort whilst being easy to wash and care for.
Then came the era when we got flooded with different varieties of these skinny pants and the world went topsy turvy. I have spotted so many young girls making a huge fashion faux pas in terms of how they style their leggings and that is what bought out this post where I'm going to put forth the basic difference between leggings, jeggings and treggings.

Leggings, Jeggings, and Treggings - What's The Difference?

Leggings are tight fitting pants that are usually made from a blend of lycra and spandex with cotton or polyester. Leggings are not the same as tights. Tights are translucent and usually worn with short skirts and dresses to prevent skin show. Leggings are thicker than tights but not too thick. Leggings are worn safely with tunics or tops that land below your hips. It looks ugly if you are wearing a short shirt and your dearie is not well supported by your legwear. Wear your leggings with short skirts, shorts, tunic tops and with your kurti for added comfort.
