The most comfortable wardrobe essential, by far, are the leggings. They’re as timeless as they are polarizing, but love them or hate them, you can’t deny their appeal, especially now. The elastic pants have become a pillar of our stay-at-home wardrobes and a surprising anchor in some of the latest runway collections, from R13 to Erdem. The general consensus at the Vogue offices? When done correctly, leggings prevail.
So that’s why four Vogue editors (myself included) jumped at the chance to test-drive Entireworld’s brand-new leggings line, which launches today. Founded by Scott Sternberg, the label specializes in creating the best basics—think vibrant alpaca-blend sweaters and sweatpants with the perfect amount of slouch. Leggings were the obvious next step and we’re very glad Entireworld took it.
In a statement written in the voice of the leggings, Entireworld explains, “I’ll do yoga with you, I’ll run errands with you. You might even take me to a casual brunch or coffee. I’m your second skin—zero performance required.” The message is clear: There’s no need to take these leggings to the gym; the grocery store will do just fine.
At $58, the 90% organic cotton leggings come in seven colorways (black, astral blue, white, pistachio, pink, bright yellow, and faint blue) and, per my colleagues, they’re incredibly versatile. Each styled the garment in a novel way. See exactly how, below.

I was always more of a stretchy trouser fan versus a legging person when it comes to the spandex-y bottoms, but the last year at home has changed that. I’ve found a handful of ways to enjoy a simple black legging while working from home. I prefer to keep it minimal and casual, say, under an oversized button-up and paired with a cozy indoor shoe. This pair of fuzzy flip-flops from Tibi has been one of the more exciting items in my at-home wardrobe that makes staying in a little more exciting. To top it off, I threw over one of my favorite knitwear trends, a sweater vest with exaggerated shoulders, to emphasize the oversized silhouette on top and balance out the slim-fitting bottoms.

The weather is finally starting to warm up here in NYC but it’s not quite spring yet. I’m still layering up to protect myself from the cold but without sacrificing my style! I chose to layer my Wales Bonner top and skirt with the Entireworld leggings in white for both comfortability and function. The leggings also added a nice pop of white to contrast the green and blue in the outfit. In the end, I threw on pink socks from Comme Si to play with more color in the outfit while remaining cozy at home.

Although I’m still quarantining, my slouchy stay-at-home days are behind me, well, to a certain extent. I don’t think I’ll ever completely part ways from a comfortable pair of leggings—these, by the way, feel smooth as butter—but I’m ready for playful spring colors and heels (as you can see from the caged sandals I decided to pull from the back of my closet). I paired the ice-colored Entireworld leggings with a tweed blazer by Song of Style and gold Jennifer Fisher hoops and a Missoma necklace for an elevated touch.

With my 30th birthday looming in the not-so-distant future, I’ve really been leaning into the whole self-care thing as of late (at-home micro-current facials, collagen supplements, turmeric-matcha superfood lattes—the whole shebang). Of course, my otherwise fussy and chaotic sartorial mood has shifted to match this clean new lifestyle, and it just so happens that Entireworld’s ultra-comfy cotton leggings are the perfect building block for a more pared-down fashion ethos (while still maintaining the color profile that I hold dear!). Slip into these babies straight out of the shower, add a supersoft pastel cardi and a pair of cashmere bed socks (yes, that’s a real thing), and you’ve got yourself a relaxing, feel-good look that screams, “Treat yo’ self!”
