7 Trendy Basics to Wear With Leather Pants This Fall

Leather pants always seem like a good idea until you go to put them on and realize that they feel like a bigger deal than they actually are. This often results in a state of confusion when it comes to how to style said pants, and before you know it, you’re throwing them on the floor and slipping into the same jeans you’ve worn for days straight. This fall, I refuse to let that happen to you again. Instead of feeling like you have to assemble some insanely noteworthy outfit to do your leather pants justice, treat them like you would any pair of jeans and style them with the basics—trendy ones, to be exact.

Ahead, get ready to shop the 7 basics that will result in the perfect fall leather pants outfits every time.  

Big button-downs are the move this season. Whether you style them tucked or untucked, this wardrobe staple is one that feels cooler than ever this season. 

There is nothing chicer than a clean white tank and leather pants. The combination of these two basics is timeless yet somehow extremely forward. 

Shackets are one of this season’s heaviest-hitting outerwear trends and while the plaid and wool versions are certainly among the most popular versions, it’s the faux leather iterations we enjoy most with leather pants. 

If you’re looking for a versatile yet classic fall outerwear purchase, look to menswear-inspired coats and menswear-inspired coats only. This structured garment paired with sleek leather pants is guaranteed to be a match made in heaven time after time. 

Play with textures by wearing a chunky knit sweater with your sleek leather pants. With just two items, you suddenly have a well-rounded outfit in seconds flat. 

Not sure how to make all the basic sweatshirts you loaded up on during quarantine feel cool? Pair them with leather pants. You can thank us later. 

While yes, leather pants are exciting in their own way, there is no harm in jazzing them up a bit more with a warped basic. As of late, white T-shirts have received quite the update via twisting, cropping, and more. Pair your favorite version with your favorite leather pants of choice and call it a day.
