Do you have skinny legs? Do you want to know how to dress fabulously with skinny legs? Here are Starts at 60 Style’s top tips!

Best pants: Bootleg pants or a slim straight cut in light neutral shades. Tuck skinny jeans into knee high boots. Avoid capris and wide leg shorts – choose slim leg shorts instead.

 

Capture bootleg jeans

Capture stretch sateen pants

 

Colours: Wear fitted garments in dark colours on the top half, and light neutral shades on the lower half – doing this will add weight to your legs.

Try: Wearing patterned tights! Mid calf – knee-high boots work well with skirts. Avoid chunky shoes. Heels are good.

Best skirts: slim pencil skirt with a tapered hem worn to the knee or just above. Maxi skirts. Some A-line and asymmetrical skirts can work well too – but make sure they emphasise the widest parts of your legs.
