3 Ways To Style Leather Leggings

As we head into Fall I thought it was the perfect time to share 3 ways to style leather leggings.  I just picked up these Spanx Moto leggings from Nordstrom (while my kids were napping) to make sure I got my size before Fall.   Last year it was tough to get your hands on certain sizes in the Spanx leather leggings when the weather turned.  By the way, do you ever use Nordstrom’s curbside pick-up?  I have a bad habit of online shopping when my kids sleep because I can pick up my items later in the day without taking my boys out of their car seats.

Do you own Spanx leggings yet?   They lock and load you if you know what I mean.  I got size small because I wanted them a bit less constricting than if I sausaged myself into the size XS.   I would call these investment leggings.   If you wear leggings as often as I do in the cooler months I think it’s worth investing in a pair you love.

Style Leather Leggings Dressed Down

So here’s a way to dress down leather leggings for something like a grocery run.  I added the IT chunky cardigan of the season and a layering tank (size down x 2, it runs really big).  You can find a similar white swing tank here as well.  If you don’t have slip on sneakers like these (almost sold out, similar pair here) they’re so easy for a throw on and go athleisure look.

Style Leather Leggings For Anywhere

Pinch me that it’s almost time to wear over the knee boots again.  I can’t get enough wear out of mine once the weather allows.  My exact pair is old but the two I shared below (a save and splurge pair) are the most similar I could find.  I think any leggings look amazing with over the knee boots.   There are so many choices for tops but I generally prefer a tunic type.  In these pictures I added some fairly basic options I already had in my closet.

Style Leather Leggings Dressed Up

So if you want to wear leather leggings to date night or a party you need to glam them up with heels.   I added these basic (sex kitten) heels that I wear whenever I’m trying to dress up an outfit.  I have these heels in black and nude and would recommend sizing up a half size in them.  This suede Moto jacket (wearing size small) is phenomenal quality and another piece you could style dozens of ways.  Let me know if you want a post about that down the road.

If you want other Fall outfit ideas I did a recent post sharing some pieces to make up a Fall capsule wardrobe as well as a post about early Fall cardigan outfits.

Some of you guys mentioned you’d like ideas for workwear and how to style booties for Fall.   If there are other posts you’d like to see (about anything, not just clothes) PLEASE let me know.   I really value your input!  Now that I’m thinking about it some people did ask for workout posts.  That will give my hubby a good laugh cause he’s more of the fitness nut than me these days.  I show up to the gym and figure that at least counts for something.   I do try to share my workouts on Instagram stories if you really are interested.

Do you own leather leggings yet?  I’d love to see how you’re styling them.   And if you’re in the mood for shopping Nordstrom just started a HUGE “Summer sale” that includes tons of early Fall items if your wardrobe is in need.

Have a great weekend, I appreciate you stopping by!!

Thank you to Nordstrom for sponsoring this post.

      you need to wash them inside out (they’re faux leather) so the shiny coating doesn’t come off. I do cold gentle cycle. 🙂
