Strappy Leggings by Hubert

— June 28, 2008 — Fashion
These metallic, strappy leggings carry the effect of the gladiator sandal fashion all the way up the leg. Designed by Denmark's Rikke Hubert, the leggings are made of a shimmery black fabric straps connected by a flattering vertical strip up the back of the leg. The leggings with micro shorts at the top, look adorable under a dress, or can be worn with a t-shirt.

Paired with a strappy pair of sandals the look is fantastic. If the strap look is not for you, Hubert offers the same leggings in a sparkly full-coverage version, though not nearly as fun.
