I’m searching for a pair of leather or faux-leather accented leggings to wear under sweater dresses and tunic sweaters. I thought about going for the all-leather look, but that didn’t strike me as being as comfortable as ponte and leather accents.

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]
It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
I got this tuxedo faux leather stripe ponte pant this weekend. (Joe Fresh – JCPenney – $26). They are fun and wildly comfortable! wore with white tank, denim jacket and leopard scarf to dinner last night. Great with booties or pumps. Perfect price for a short lived trend (IMHO).
i love these! don’t think i’ll be indulging in the leather trend this fall though.
btw, do you have any suggestions on sweater dresses that aren’t wool (i’m allergic) on the affordable side? (like under $50)
I’m so glad to see that you are looking into the leather pants/leggings! any suggestions on shoes to wear with them, too?
