Leather Leggings!

Whether yours are real or faux, leather leggings are everywhere for fall.  At first glance they SEEM impractical and reserved only for a hot night out in Atlantic City...they are far more versatile than you think. I have been adding a pair to all of my client boxes and think they can be daytime chic when paired in a smart way with flat shoes, cozy shirts/sweaters and big cross body bags. I would throw a longer tunic tank with both of these looks.  Hope you find some outfit inspiration!

Those are hot! I'm not quite brave enough to wear them yet but they're really tempting me. Love how you styled them.

I love this post! Mostly because I've been fighting the urge to buy myself some of these for a couple years now, but never seem to find the perfect pair or doubt my ability to pull them off!

Maybe this fall I'll have to bit the bullet and just do it. Also, one day I really NEED to do one of your 'box services' because I pretty much am in love with all your posts.

You really are the best stylist, love your mix of colour and tone and materials and the flash of orange. Even with the cape i don't think I could do leather leggings, but wish i could!
