For the Love of Leather

Sure we all own a leather jacket, (hopefully) but what we should really be focusing on is the leather pants and if you’re really on top of it, you own a couple of each. As we’ve discussed before, the leather jacket or blazer is an absolute essential but we’re starting to think that a pair of leather pants is a worthy adversary. Many are intimidated by leather pants, or leather anything for that matter and we’re here to say that there is no need to worry. Most of you either don’t know how to style them, don’t know which silhouette fits you best or you simply don’t believe you can pull them off. First off, you’re wrong and second, the idea of leather pants shouldn’t be overwhelming and yes you can wear them casually and not just for a “special” occasion. Although you can do that too. Here are some examples of some great leather pants and how you can style them this fall-winter.

1. The Leather Legging

This is for all of my athleisure loving ladies. The yoga-heads and school run moms that want to be comfortable but still show some effort and be chic while doing it all. Leather leggings may sound kind of tacky at first thought but you haven’t tried these The Row Shiny Lambskin Leather Leggings. These are the queen of leather leggings, hell, they are the queen of all leggings. They are instantly slimming and flatter any figure and you can easily dress them up or down with a change of shoes and some jewelry. They make getting ready for the day (or night) effortless.

2. The Wide Leg Leather Pant

The wide leg silhouette is back in a big way. We’re seeing celebrities, models, influencers both male and female styling wide leg trousers in such cool and chic ways. So, why not try a wide leg leather pants? Sure, the leather factor may seem “risky” already but it doesn’t get more chic than this. We love these Frame Pleated Leather Pants, they feature a high waisted fit, pleated detail and seamed stitching that make them feel a bit more casual and grounded. The great thing about a high-waisted, wide leg pant is that they look great with boots and heels. A good pair of heels specifically adds a great balance and dynamic to these pants.

3. The Leather Jogger

Probably our new favorite variation of the leather pants: The jogger. Because who doesn’t love leather sweatpants? That’s essentially what they are, sweatpants but with an upgrade. You can literally style these all the way down or all the way up. For us, these are ideal for running errands around town and then meeting up for coffee with the girls. They’re easy to style and easy to move in. Style with your favorite hoodie or cardigan and call it a day.
