The Coolest Way to Wear Your Leather Leggings

Leather leggings are one wardrobe staple that always proves to be a worthy investment. A sumptuous pair of leather leggings has the ability to make any outfit look more expensive—not to mention is endlessly versatile and suits myriad sartorial sensibilities. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is a fan of the timeless style, and while out in NYC recently, she showed off the coolest way to wear them right now.

Many pairs come with zip detailing at the ankles, and while traditionally they're worn closed, Rosie shows that keeping them unzipped looks equally cool for a slightly flared effect. Worn with elegant, streamlined pieces such as a turtleneck sweater, printed coat, and suede pumps, the look is undeniably classic—with a subtle (and super-chic) twist.
