I am counting down the days until spring arrives. I can’t wait to pack up my winter boots, jackets, and scarves. While spring doesn’t usually necessitate tank tops and flip flops, I do enjoy wearing beautiful pastel colored short sleeved shirts at this time. To stay warm during the cool spring mornings and nights, I often slip on a colorful sweater over my short sleeved blouse. Sweaters are a great way to bridge the gap in your wardrobe between the cold winter months and the hot summer months. If you currently don’t own any spring sweaters, now is a great time to stock up on them. On this blog, you will learn how to find the perfect sweaters to match your spring shirts. Enjoy!
While leggings are one of the best types of apparel to wear when working out or when you have a busy day, they are prone to showing camel toes. Although some women have no problem with this, others do prefer avoiding camel toes as much as possible. If you happen to lean towards the latter, here are 3 tips you can implement in order to make sure that the next leggings you buy won't show your camel toe.
Pick the Right Type of Fabric
The type of fabric that the leggings are made of will have a huge effect on whether they'll show your camel toe or not. Your best bet is to pick leggings that are made from thick fabric, as the fabric will be less likely to wrinkle. Thin fabrics tend to cause camel toes because they wrinkle easily. They are also more likely to settle on the crevices of your body. Keep in mind that even thick fabric can be stretched thin if you are ordering leggings that are too small or too tight for you.
With that said, you'll also want to avoid leggings that are made from 100% spandex, linen or polyester, as they are more likely to cause camel toes. Leggings made from cotton or a mix of different types of fabric tend to be better at concealing camel toes. If you're buying boutique leggings online, read the description to get a good idea of the type and quality of fabric that you'll be getting.
Look for Ones with Built-In Lining at the Crotch
Some companies understand just how frustrating it can be to have to avoid camel toes all the time. As a result, they have designed leggings with built-in lining at the crotch that will conceal camel toes. Leggings with built-in linings at the crotch negate the need for underwear and are also quite comfortable for those who participate in active sports, as they offer more support. These types of leggings are surprisingly quite popular, so don't knock it until you've tried it.
If you're interested in purchasing leggings with a built-in lining at the crotch, look for ones that will wick away moisture. This is especially true if you'll be wearing the leggings when participating in a sport or a recreational activity, as this area will generally get quite sweaty. With that said, if you feel uncomfortable going bare, you can still wear underwear with these leggings.
Go for Darker-Colored Leggings
Light-colored leggings and sheer leggings will emphasize the appearance of camel toes, whereas darker-colored leggings are generally able to conceal camel toes much better, as they do not emphasize wrinkles in the leggings. If you've always had a problem with camel toes and leggings, it might be because you're simply choosing leggings that are the wrong color for you. Black is going to be your safest bet. Darker colors like dark blue, dark purple or even maroon are also great.
Leggings with darker-colored patterns on them are also great if you want to switch things up. The patterns can conceal the camel toe easily through distraction. In addition, these leggings can add an element of fun to otherwise boring outfits.
Conclusion
If you're not fond of camel toes, you'll have to shop around in order to find leggings with the type of cutting, fabric and design needed to conceal them. With the right type of leggings, you won't have to worry about camel toes ever again no matter the circumstances. You'll be able to comfortably work out, run errands and lounge around without having to constantly check your nether regions to see whether you have an embarrassing situation on your hands.
