If there is one piece of clothing that will take your outfits from blah to wow in a matter of seconds is leather shorts. Leather shorts are HOT this fall and I am here for it. I admit I was a little on the fence when I purchased my first pair, but now I am OBSESSED.
I was a little weary of how was I going to style these because I would not say my style is edgy and leather pieces are known to be super edgy. I was kind of scared. But I took the plunge and purchased 2 colors of leather shorts: black and camel.
Y’all know I rarely wear black, but these have been so fun to style and push myself out of my fashion comfort zone.
I’m a huge fan of leather shorts because I feel like they’re a fall-winter staple! You could wear this style shorts with a fun top and strappy heels, or in the winter with boots, tights and a coat.
Also, if I have the chance to add the perfect amount of, “yes, I’m a little bit extra” to my outfit, whether it’s a girls night out or a dolled up date night, I’m going to take it and let me assure you, leather shorts do just that.
So if you are thinking about getting yourself a pair, I promise to tell you, you won’t regret it, and low and behold I have styled leather shorts 8 different ways for you!
My black leather shorts! I size up one for a looser fit!
They also come in brown!
8 Ways To Style Leather Shorts
Sweater Vest + Cowboy Boots
The perfect way to style leather shorts before it gets a little chilly out. Sweater tanks are great for layering or wearing on their own. When the temps do drop, layer with a turtleneck and tights and you are still good to go! I love pairing with a higher cowboy boot to just add some spice!
Satin Blouse + White Booties
I love mixing different fabrics and satin and leather is a new fav combo. The femininity of the satin blouse paired with the edgier leather just somehow works. I feel like this is an outfit a grown up Eloise would wear and I am here for it. I am all about the plaza core trend this fall/winter!
Turtle Neck + Blazer + Booties
If you are looking for a chic wear to style your leather shorts, throw on a blazer with it! This will give you total boss babe vibes. Wear this out to happy hour with coworkers or Sunday brunch!
Graphic Tee + Sneakers
Leather shorts aren’t just for dressing up, easily dress it down with a graphic tee and sneakers. This is great for running errands or heading to pick up some pumpkins!
Sweater + Chunky Boots
A classic combination: shorts and sweaters. Elevate this by adding leather shorts and you will turn up the cool girl vibes. I love a sweater with added detail to make things more fun. Pair this for a night out!
Sweater Tank + Hat + Booties
Another great option to wear right now while the temps are still feeling like summer, but you want to dress for fall. The added embellishments make this such a “BasicallyB” top! You can easily pair this look with sneakers too! You know I love adding a hat to any look in the fall, so of course had to here!
Crop Top + Heels
If you are hitting the town with the girls or have a hot date, this is the way to wear your leather shorts. Adding heels will elongate those legs and a shorter top will help define your waist. I wore this exact look to dinner over the weekend and felt great in it!
Wrap Sweater + Mules
Another girls night or date night option. Wrap sweaters are so flattering and this one is so cozy and warm so you can also throw on a pair of tights and booties and be just as good in the winter months!
