Celebrity Trend Alert

This season you cannot open a fashion magazine or read a celebrity blog without seeing a star in denim leggings. They are one of the hottest trends of the season.

The super soft and skinny jeans will slide into your boots with ease just like Rachel Bilson is above in Citizens of Humanity Avedon Slick Jean in Dust ($185). If you desire a sexier “go get him” look pair them with killer pumps like Heidi Montag is above in 7 for all Mankind Gwenevere ($169). They are also the perfect pants to show of your gladiators in once it warms up a bit.
