Nothing is as luxe in a wardrobe than a buttery soft piece of leather. Whether it be a jacket or leggings, not many pieces can compete with the soft material of real leather.

A close cousin of solid black regular leggings, a pair of leather leggings instantly makes any look cool. It is like that the person at the party everyone wants to know – part edgy, part chic, and all parts cool. 

How To Wear Leather Leggings

Like any closet classic, there are a multitude of ways to style the staple. Add an oversized sweater and white sneakers for a casual look with friends.

Black leather leggings strike a balance between a night out look with pumps, or can even be worn to a casual work environment, wearing an oversized blazer.

Scroll below to find inspo on how to wear leather leggings for the cooler weather. 

1. Leather Jacket

Leather is an investment purchase that has enduring appeal, and with wear, becomes a second skin. Start off strong with a head-to-toe leather look.

Leather leggings are a great way to transform any look from casual to cool. To finish off the look, a leather jacket is an elevated essential that should be part of everyone’s capsule wardrobe.

Who said brown and black are a faux pas? These once forbidden shades are now the latest combination for autumn wear.

Shades of brown have become desirable and have now taken over the black classic biker jacket.

Pair the tan jacket with black faux leggings for a fall approved look. 

2. Sweater

Whether you’re running errands or headed to a brunch, oversized sweaters could be just the wardrobe staple to complete your outfit.

To add an elevated element to the casual outfit, pair with black ankle boots.  Combat boots are also a great option for times of inclement weather.

A luxury leather legging is the ultimate day-to-night delight. Yes, faux leather pants are great, but nothing beats a buttery piece of real leather.

Up the ante and style the staple with chunky knit sweaters and a pair of sneakers. To turn this easy outfit into a night-time look, pair with knee-high boots and a luxury handbag. 

This outfit formula is a great idea for a no-fail combination for the cooler months. 

3. Jacket

With the investment of a great oversized jacket,  leggings can now feel entirely street style worthy.

With the tight feel of leggings, a roomier jacket or an oversized fit makes sense.

In fact, the modern way to wear leggings is to barely notice them at all: They should fade into the background of the rest of your outfit.

Lean into the athletic nature of leggings and add an elevated take on the popular athleisure wear.

A sherpa jacket and city chic sneakers are a sophisticated take on a casual leggings look. Leggings, fleece jackets and sneakers are becoming a practical everyday uniform.

Add a silky blouse to give that elevated detail to leather leggings.  Make sure that your accessories are on point too.

Add chunky necklaces, chic sunnies and a crossbody bag to finish off the look. 

3. Blazers

Luxe leather leggings are the definition of an elevated essential, especially when paired with an oversized blazer. 

A polished blazer automatically adds an elevated finish to any outfit.

Pro tip: build your blazer outfit in the same color family as the bottom half for a look that’s cohesive without being overwhelming.

A pair of leather leggings is the definition of chic, especially when styled correctly for a date night or going out look.

Nothing says perfect date night outfit quite like an all-black outfit.

There’s no more extraordinary style to default to than adding different textures and materials of the same color to a single outfit. 

4. Tops

Amp up the rock star quotient like Gigi Hadid.  A chambray button-down offsets the edgy leather leggings while Adidas sneakers grounds the look with a casual, cool feel.

Whether it be a chambray shirt or a denim jacket, it makes all the more impact when styled with a pair of leather pants.

White button-ups make dressing each and every day all the more effortless, and styling all the easier.

A cool way to style the stark white shirt is to swap out your favorite pair of jeans for leather leggings. To keep the outfit fresh, add plenty of gold jewelry and fun, chunky sneakers.

A snake print top has plenty of style, but finish the look a la Kendall Jenner.

Snakeskin tops are sure to add a modern touch to any ensemble, but adding a pair of leather pants is a hard to beat look for a night out.
