The old debate "Are leggings pants?" has been settled by the rise of athleisure [1], and the answer is a resounding yes. Leave it to Emily Ratajkowki, however, to make wearing leggings look extra sexy [2]. While most women might feel more comfortable covering up their behinds in these bottoms, Emily did the complete opposite. She rocked her high-waisted maroon pants with a cropped red jacket from LPA and an equally short grey t-shirt. She finished off with white sneakers and a crossbody bag.
The star seemed confident and comfortable in her look, based on an Instagram video she took. The clip was shot from behind, zooming in on her booty in these leggings, before panning upwards to her back and face. If Emily, who has her own line of swimsuits [3], suddenly decides to launch a leggings collection too, we wouldn't object to making a few purchases. Read on to see her casual ensemble, then shop similar pieces to build up your athleisure collection.
