If leggings aren't high-waisted, we probably aren't buying them. The style is so perfect because it holds you in, doesn't ride down and expose anything, and also looks great with just a sports bra or crop top. Plus, we find high-waisted leggings to be the most comfortable styles. Since there's always room in your closet for a new favourite pair of leggings, might we suggest one of these 14 high-waisted pairs?
