I'll Just Say It: This Trend May End Skinny Leather Pants As We Know Them

Leather pants have always been a winter staple in my book. I can't imagine getting through the season without at least one go-to pair, which is what I usually opt for in place of jeans. This winter is no different, but instead of the skinny leather pants and leather leggings that used to be the default, there's a new style in the mix that's threatening to overthrow the skinnies as we know them. The rising trend I'm referring to is leather trousers.

Pants, in general, are leaning towards the more relaxed end of the style spectrum right now with wide-leg jeans and slouchy trousers dominating—and leather pants are no exception. More specifically, I"m seeing a rise of both wide-leg and denim-inspired straight-leg fits that feel so right for the times we're in. It's not just me, though—dozens of influencers have been experimenting with the trend and there are plenty of options to choose from, shopping-wise, too.

My personal favorite way to style them is with a boxy blazer, turtleneck, and retro sneakers but the women of Instagram are offering up so many more ideas. Behold the best leather pant outfits that define the leather trouser trend (and shop my favorite pairs) below.

Magic happens when you pair wide leather pants with a structured jacket.
A perfect example of how to wear them for casual days.
Oversize sweaters just look so much cooler paired with slouchy leather trousers.
Tuck in a button-down shirt for a polished finish.
This easy outfit formula consisting of a turtleneck, leather pants, and sneakers is one I'm wearing on repeat this season.
They're basically a showcase for your favorite knits.
...and statement tops, too, for that matter.
Leather separates lend a '90s feel to any outfit (cue the bucket hat).
The slouchy shape was basically made for wearing with cozy separates.
Sometimes all you need is a great basic to create a simple, chic ensemble.
See what I mean about boxy blazers? They add such a cool element. 
Though they're a winter staple, here's how I'd transition the pants into spring.
You can't go wrong with sneakers and a big sweater.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
