There are no more rules in fashion, and we believe leather isn't just reserved for girls’ night out, date night or special events anymore.
We've got the skinny on how to style your favorite leather pants for day light hours— our five favorite tips.
Sporty Style
Leather doesn’t need to always make a statement. These sporty joggers paired with athleisure wear and white sneakers make these leather pants 100% appropriate for daytime.
Casual Vibe
To pull off a daytime casual look, just add a pullover, cardigan or boyfriend sweater and slip on a pair of loafers, like Amy’s style below. Want to make it edgier? Pair with combat boots and a fringe leather bag
Soft Meets Strong
Your leather pants are more versatile than you think. Try balancing their edgy structure with softer elements - like a floral blous, lace details or soft flowing fabrics — for contrast and interest. Voila! A wearable and versatile daytime outfit! Don’t forget to pull out your trendy clogs or a classic pair of pumps, and maybe skip the combat boots.
Tailored & Classic
A white button down shirt is a wardrobe essential. - but it doesn’t have to feel basic. Give yours a modern edge, by pairing it with a leather pant and a pair of strappy sandals or ankle boot, whichever feels more appropriate for your day — this classic combination can be accessorized to work for most any occasion.
Colors Rule
Leather doesn’t have to be just black and brown or basic neutrals. Bold shades like red, green and blue leather are perfect colors for the day and can help shift the look away from the typical nighttime-black vibe. You can wear colored leather as your statement piece — then pair with grounded neutrals like a simple top and a loafer or ankle boot —and let the pants do the talking.
Confidence!
No explanation necessary. It’s the key to making an outfit look better every time.
