If you're struggling to wean yourself off leggings after what felt like a lifetime of working from home, we have a solution that you might find appealing. Keep your normal leggings for off-duty; and wear stirrup leggings for on.

Stirrup leggings have all the appeal of their non-stirruped cousins (the stretch waist, the soft touch, the leg-lengthening properties) but extra sharpness thanks to that tiny strip of fabric.

As part of her iconic collection of maternity outfits, Rihanna wore a pair of high-waisted stirrup leggings from The Attico, which she styled with a criss-cross top that showed a strip of bump and spike-heeled stilettos - and we've been obsessed ever since.

They also made their presence felt at Copenhagen Fashion Week - where street stylers, desperate to keep warm in near-freezing temperatures - styled theirs with statement jumpers masquerading as dresses. Of course, in order to show off that stirrup, you do need a bare ankle and, preferably, a high heel. If, however, that's entirely too ambitious then a pair of clogs - Penelope Chilvers makes our favourites - or chunky loafers will suffice.
