Five Ways to Style Faux Leather Leggings

Happy Thursday! Over on Instagram today, I'm teaming up with three amazing and stylish women (MaddyAshley, and Kaci) for a style session! This is actually the first time I ever done a styling session with friends so I am super excited. We have teamed up to style one of my personal closet essentials, the faux leather Spanx leggings! This is my third season wearing the exact same pair of these leggings. They are such great quality and totally worth the price tag! If you consider price per wear then mine were basically free, lol. I find the fit to be true to size but I do know that some ladies like to size up one for a little extra room so it's totally up to your preference. These leggings are pricey and even though I think they are worth the cost, I did round up some budget friendly options for every budget at the bottom of this post to give you more options. 

I'm wearing the regular length in the Spanx faux leather leggings and I'm 5'5". They hit right on my ankle for length reference. These leggings also come in a petite length as well, that I would personally recommend if you are shorter than I am. 


In today's post and over on Instagram, I'm sharing five different ways to style faux leather leggings. You can absolutely recreate similar looks with any kind of black leggings if you don't own any faux leather ones. I'm here to say that leggings are definitely pants!

OUTFIT ONE
This first look is my go-to when I'm wearing faux leather leggings. The formula is simple: a comfortable sweatshirt and sneakers! I added this utility jacket for a little extra warmth.

OUTFIT TWO
This look is how I dress up my faux leather leggings, well, at least dressed up for me. I added ankle boots and I love wearing these leggings with heels. Heels plus these leggings make your legs look so long! I paired my leggings with my favorite flannel shirt and layered it with a denim jacket. This would be such a fun outfit for a casual date night!

OUTFIT THREE
This next look is all about being cozy, especially on a snowy/rainy winter day! I love wearing my faux leather leggings with rainboots because you don't have to worry about jeans bunching up inside of your boots (which drives me absolutely crazy). To keep me warm, I paired my leggings with this extra cozy sherpa pullover. It's seriously the softest sherpa, on the outside and inside! This perfect sherpa fits true to size, comes in several colors, has pockets, and is leggings friendly!

OUTFIT FOUR
This next outfit is another comfy, casual, and cozy look! This look is perfect for something quick to throw on while still looking put together. A relaxed fit tee, cardigan, and slip on shoes for the win! It's basically as easy (and cozy) as throwing on your favorite robe and slippers.

OUTFIT FIVE
My last outfit idea is to style my leggings with an oversized sweater and tall boots. These boots are so incredibly comfortable! I walked over ten miles in these boots when we were in Asheville and I had zero discomfort. The color also goes with everything! I've worn a similar variation of this outfit many times. I think it totally works for mom life, work, or even a date!
