It's no secret that we covet Olivia Palermo's polished yet cool style—as in, we legitimately find ourselves scrolling through her most recent outfits on a daily basis. So when we noticed that she's basically only wearing one pant style lately, we knew it was time to investigate the trend for ourselves.
We're talking about cropped leather pants. It's totally understandable why she keeps wearing these. As the cold-weather cousin of the skinny jean, they give you the same slimming silhouette as skinnies, plus an added layer of warmth and bit of edginess. Palermo has been styling hers with everything from oversize coats and sneakers for daytime wear to a bomber jacket and heels for a night out. Considering how versatile they are, we highly recommend giving them a try yourself.
