Perhaps she's always one second away from working out or somehow skipped Blair Waldorf's Gossip Girl speech, but Gigi Hadid seems determined to prove, once and for all, that leggings actually can be worn as pants. Gigi might have a model body, but seeing how many times she's fearlessly worn these babies in public has got us thinking: are the days of the stigma surrounding leggings about to be over? If that's the case, quite frankly, we're relieved. What woman hasn't woken up on a Monday morning and groaned at the thought of shimmying into a tight pair of jeans? In the end, it all comes down to styling. See how Gigi has been wearing hers, then shop similar items for yourself — if you dare.
