Look Lovely in Leather Pants – Here’s How
Leather Pants are modern and youthful and a little edgy too. For gals who prefer a more feminine look, here’s how to style them.
1. Add a Dose of Red
A beautiful sweater in a bold shot of red is a beautiful way to accent black leggings. Just make sure your sweater is long enough to cover your bottom and private parts.
2. A Poncho is Elegant
The shape and drama of a beautiful knit poncho like this black and gray leopard create a sense of mystery and elegance.
3. A Sweater Dress Can Be Cozy
A short sweater dress doubles as a dress and is warm, cozy, and classy.
4. Cardigans Are Sophisticated
A long cardigan is the perfect layering piece for leggings and a top. This leopard one is right on trend and looks fun and a little edgy with black leather leggings or pants.
5. Plaid is Fashion Forward
Plaid pants and a leather top are an odd combination that makes this lovely outfit fresh and fashion-forward.

I love these looks! However, I am on the shorter side and heavier in the legs. Will these leather leggings work for me?
Hi Mary, You can still wear leggings if you have heavy, curvy thighs. Try pairing your leggings with tunics, longer blouses, and short dresses no longer than mid-thigh. You may also want to try a top that is low contrast. For example, wear a dark top like burgundy, black, or dark green to create a longer, leaner line if you wear black leather leggings. Bright or light colors will emphasize your legs/leggings. Enjoy!
This is great; I am on the hunt for a pair of leather pants or skirts.
