How to style a leather leggings outfit for this season without feeling too dressed up, it takes a bit of finesse but I promise they are just as casual as denim and can actually act as a really great basic piece.
Leather leggings seem to be everywhere this year now that a lot of people are working from home, and don’t want to be confined to sweat pants all fall and winter. The great thing is they never go out of style so if you buy a pair this year you can rotate them into your wardrobe each year as the cooler temperatures hit. Also remember black isn’t the only option out there. Neutrals are making a huge dent in the leather legging category so if you’re anything like me and love a stick of butter outfit, a neutral leather leggings outfit is just as chic- this is the colour for you.

4 Tips for Styling Leather Leggings
- Combine fabrics– Leather is smooth (obviously) so by adding different fabrics you’re adding various textures into your outfit as well, quite eye pleasing if I do say so myself.
- Create balance by pairing with casual accents– Leather is a more dressy, edgy piece of clothing so adding more casual accessories this will balance out the outfit and make it more everyday.
- Layer for dimension– Think Cat Woman. She never layered and therefore lacked dimension, which was totally not what she was going for anyways but by adding different layers you create more dimensions for the eye which is both playful and beautiful.
- Play with length– I added a french tuck at the front for this leather leggings outfit (shown above) and left the back long which is a nice way of bringing the entire outfit together. It adds length and cohesiveness to the look and stops anything from looking boxy.
Colour Options
I love that these leather leggings aren’t black, as much as black is the ultimate colour for versatility these deep caramel colour are so unique and actually create a twist on the traditional pair. Neutrals are so popular right now as well you can find pieces to match so easily, for a softer more daytime look go with this leather leggings outfit.
I’ve linked this pair above but will also link a few alternatives for you to shop via Shop the Post.
In the cooler months ill be styling these with boots and a really nice long coat, cannot wait!
