I am serious- I love the look of leather leggings if they are worn the right way. I would not wear them with spiked shoes and a belly shirt. However, I would wear them with an oversized sweater, flats, and a cute bag!
Here are some celebrities sporting the leather leggings trend:
There is one small problem with leather leggings- most of the real leather leggings run anywhere from 700-1,000 dollars. Now we all know that is just a little bit cray cray, so I will gladly sport the leather "blend" leggings for far far less (running anywhere from 75-300 dollars). There is also a pair on F21 for only $11.80 (view here).
Another problem that scares me is how tight they might look. That is why it is important to cover your bum whilst wearing them, or else you might attract some unwanted attention.
Here are some of my current favorites:
And here is how I would wear the look:
What do you all think about them?

I like them and would totally wear them! I recently bought some jeggings..and now I am obsessed with the legging trend. So comfy!
I bought some last winter and I love them. Go get them today ;)
I really like the Alice + Olivia ones you posted and the way that Olivia Palermo is wearing hers. I might have to purchase some for myself.
You're right about wearing them with something that covers your bum. My fear would be looking a little too "Olivia Newton John/Grease"! Wearing flats and an oversized cashmere cardigan seems like the way to go.
I love the sweater you chose to go over the leggings. I think the leather dresses up nicely... I haven't taken the plunge yet but we'll see!
I think it would be a great look with an oversized sweater. Perfect way to add a luxe touch to our favorite leggings!
I like them! I actually posted an outfit with leather leggings the other day in my Desert Boots post. I have always been a fan of leather pants (classy ones, not biker assless chaps ones) and I think the leather leggings look when done right is super chic!
I have absolutely no idea how I stumbled upon your blog, but I'm glad I did. It's a very fun read, and I love your fashion and lifestyle musings. You have a great sense of style! Oh, and totally agree with you about RHODC. ~ Annie from Nashville @ www.achiccritique.com
One word: LOVE.
oh my gosh, I can already see them on you in an OOTD... I might get the f21 ones to don w/ a tunic of some sort. can't wait to see them on you!!
I love the look you put together! So cute! Esp, w/ the Starbucks ;-)
Love that you accessorize with a Starbucks cup! They're definitely not in my fall wardrobe, but I could see you pulling them off for sure.
I love this look, but I feel like it would be SO UNCOMFORTABLE.
I like them, except for the ones with kneepads in the Lindsay Lohan picture. Those are...sketchy.
I want pictures posted on your site when you get them and wear them! Can't wait!!
i think you def have to find the right pair! Love the look though and they are on my fall lust list!
