How to Style Leather (Faux) Leggings
Part 1 of 2
In preparation for this collaborative blog post, FTF did a little research. The goal was to find stylish recommendations for mid-lifers to style leggings or in this case faux leather leggings. Lots of pictures and recommendations were found for the millennials very few and almost no pictures found for mid-lifers. Here’s how we’re rock’in the trend no matter age! Today it’s all about FAUX LEATHER LEGGINGS…
CASUAL
Faux leather leggings are great for casual days of running errands, just hanging out on the weekends just to name a few…I paired mine with a shorty camo sweatshirt, which is trending along with wedgie sneakers and my moto jacket!
DATE NIGHT or GIRL’S NIGHT OUT
Paired my faux leather leggings with my fur vest, plaid top and leopard pumps and statement necklace for a dressier look. You could also wear booties with this look if you prefer them over pumps. I think this look is great for a weekend adventure with either your significant other or your gal pals.
FANCY
With the holidays around the corner, why not dress up your faux leather leggings by adding a sequined top, jacket, blinged pumps and some rhinestone jewelry! FTF followers know that I don’t need much of a reason to be fancy! This is totally my wheel house…the blingier the better!
SHOP THE LEGGINGS:
I wasn’t sure I was going to like the faux leather leggings or be confident enough to wear them out so I set out to find a decent pair at a fantastic price! Success…these leggings could easily become my fall and winter uniform! They fit and feel great! I especially love that they are high waisted. The best part is they’re only $15.99! Yes, you read that right!

This was such a fun collaboration Julie and I LOVE how many different ways you’ve styled yours – I own that fur vest so I am thinking I could recreate that look on my own. And your wedge sneakers are so fab! I have had those on my wish list for sometime and am tempted now that I see them on you! As always, such a joy to collaborate with you…looking forward to our next round!
