A good leather pant is the ultimate winter essential that delivers on both warmth and style. Be it a legging, trouser or boot cut, the classic leather pant is a wardrobe workhorse that can be dressed up, down or anywhere in between. Here are my top 10 favorite leather pant looks that are as evergreen as the staple itself:

1. Winter uniform
   Pairing a leather pant with vintage fur and sneakers (Converse, Adidas, Superga or Vans as shown in cover photo) is the ultimate cool-girl look for winter. Often spotted on the streets of New York and London, this look delivers on style, comfort and warmth, making it my favorite winter uniform of all time.

2. Business casual
   Leather pants styled with a tailored pieces is a great way to amplify your corporate uniform. Add a blazer, classic white shirt and kitten heels for a corporate vibe, then accessorize with an elegant watch, pearl necklace or smart handbag to add polish and ground the look in daytime.

3. Date night
   Leather is a great way to boost your sex appeal for date night, so be sure to keep it in rotation. Pair your leather pants with a cold-shoulder top or silky camisole to strike a sweet & sexy balance.

4. Layer up
   Winter is all about layering so don’t forget to throw leather into the mix. Layer leather leggings under your favorite all-season dress for a super chic look that shows you’re a style maker.

5. Jingle mingle
   Leather pants balance well with velvet, sequins, gold and silver lamé, so pair them with your favorite festive top for a fabulous holiday look.

6. Weekend warrior
   Nothing says “weekend” like leather, especially when paired with Dr. Martens. It’s a tough yet chic look that lets Saturday and Sunday know that you really mean it.

7. Travel companion
   Leather is cozy and easy to travel in, especially when paired with cashmere and a good pair of driving moccasins. If you pack a few great party tops then you’ll also have chic dinner looks at the ready.

8. Moto girl
   Rev up your style by sporting a graphic tee or denim shirt with leather pants or leggings. More is more with this look so add a leather moto jacket and biker boots and you’re sure to find yourself a Harley-loving alpha male soon enough.

9. Black tie
   Reinvent the traditional Le Smoking uniform with leather pants to give this classic tuxedo look more edge. Don’t worry, YSL would approve!

10. Every day, every way
    If you’re looking to level up your personal style for 2020, let leather pants be your go-to. Wear them instead of jeans or joggers to elevate your daily uniform and pair with booties and a puffer to not look over-the-top at the grocery store.
