by Shea Simmons

If you're looking for plus size leggings for winter, but aren't sure where to begin, I've got you covered. While many people rock leggings, finding plus sizes isn't always easy despite the seeming strides being made for size inclusivity.

There are lots of retailers out there who offer incredible size inclusive clothing. A prime example is retailer Eloquii — the same label Rebel Wilson rocked at the 2015 Video Music Awards — who released a look book featuring often overlook plus sizes of 26 and 28.

While there is definitely a ways to go for many retailers, it's great to know that we're making some strides in the plus size fashion movement.

That said, there is definitely a handful of retailers that offer some gorgeous leggings that you absolutely need in your closet for winter. Whether you're looking for metallic, graphic, sexy, or cute, this roundup of plus size leggings will keep you warm and cozy all season long.
