LEATHER. Leather trousers (or leather pants) are no longer limited to rock n' roll. With fall 2010 updates they can be relaxed, romantic, nostalgic, utilitarian... and the list goes on.
BURNT SIENNA. Try leather trousers in reddish brown for a bit of blithe nostalgia. (Top and bottom) Ralph Lauren Blue Label Leather Pants from Saks and Wax Effect Leather Shorts from Zara. I know this post is for leather trousers, but I came across some amazing leather shorts that I really want to include. =)
RELAXED FIT. They don't necessarily need to be tight fitted skinnies, slouchy slightly harem styles are really chic too. (From left to right) Cheap Monday Faux Leather Trouser from ASOS, Davi Leather Pants and Davi s Leath Shorts both from Acne.
MOTORCYCLE & BIKER. What is grungy chic without leather trousers? (Left to right) 1971 Reiss Gael Leather Motorcycle Pant from ASOS and ASKET Leather Biker Trousers from Ted Baker.
PANELED. Add a pinch of zing with paneling, structural + black leather screams Gareth Pugh to me. (Left to right) Superfine Swirl mid-rise stretch-denim and leather jeans from Net-a-porter and Helmut Lang Jersey and Leather Combo Leggings from Shopbop.
BASIC SKINNIES. Be inspired by Olivia Palermo with basic leather skinnies, from what I gather hers are from Daryl K. (Left to right) True Religion Stella Leather Pants and Helmut Lang Skinny Leather Pants from Shopbop.
