What began as merely basic ballerina apparel, has become this fall’s fashion must-have. Do as the dancers do and keep your joints toasty by picking up a pair of acrylic, cashmere or wool leg warmers. This accessory is like a pair of sexy sweaters to keep your ankles warm as the weather begins to chill.

Leg warmers not only sensible, but a little seductive too, in that they display most of those lengthy limbs. Therefore, all that hard work you’ve put in at the gym to tone those gams will not be put to waste just because the season requires you to cover up. You can still show off your shapely legs under a pair of tights or leggings and what else, but leg warmers.
