So here's the deal.  I was NOT into this whole leather leggings trend.  In fact, I didn't grab a pair for QUITE some time.  Was I really going to wear them that often?  Were they worth the money?  Well here we and I was wrong.  Totally wrong.  I ordered a pair to try out, halfway expecting to return them.  And I fell in LOVE.  These leggings fit like a dream, and are SUPER versatile.

Before we start, let's talk sizing.  I found the pants to be true to size (I'm wearing a large).  They're compression leggings, so they're definitely snug and they're a thicker material.  If you'd prefer a little more give, size up one size.

So here we go.  A few of my favorite leather leggings outfit ideas…….practical ways to style these simple wardrobe staples.

Leather Leggings Outfit Ideas

There are a million and one ways to style faux leather leggings, but these? My favorites for a variety of different events and days.  Truth be told, my days are more casual than fancy (mom life).  So my goal was mostly casual fall outfits or outfit ideas that I could wear to an event or meeting but also to run errands.

A few things to note: I used two pairs of shoes for all four outfits.  My goal was to create a bunch of looks with a few core pieces.  So one pair of leggings, a pair of boots and a pair of sneakers.  Different tops and accessories.  My point? You don't need a million pairs of shoes either…..these outfits will work with what you have in your closet.

  • Sporty and Casual: This is probably my favorite of the faux leather leggings outfit ideas.  It's comfy, casual, easy to wear and perfect for day to day errands or casual activities and it's my favorite for fall outfits.  A soft striped tee (this one is a must own), my favorite sneakers and a baseball hat.  In cooler weather? Add a hooded sweatshirt or a puffer vest.  You can also swap out the lighter tee for a heaver sweatshirt or bomber jacket.

Date Night: This leather leggings outfit is perfect for a casual date night!

  • Dinner Date: This? The dressiest outfit I put together.  Now, if I'm being honest…..heels happen RARELY these days.  So this is a more casual shoe option.  I paired a bright jewel colored blouse (shout out to Gibson Look for this stunning piece….you can use code CARLY25 to get it for 25% off)…..a fun hair clip and my favorite neutral boots.  Trying to recreate this look during the cooler months? You could easily add a cute blazer as a jacket!

Absolutely!  This would also be great during the winter months with a fun colored jacket and scarf.  I love the chic ease of this outfit.  It's always going to be in style and looks STUNNING on everyone.

Five years ago. This exact place. Robbie had jus Five years ago.  This exact place.  Robbie had just finished two years of grad school.  And it had been a long, tough two years.  That year involved one major teacher strike in my district, many many many jobs and gigs for both of us, minimal time off together, a whole lot of unknowns and a whole lot of stress.The Disney and Aulani team probably had no idea that they were giving us the gift of much needed peaceful time together when they invited us on a trip to this magical place.  A trip that….to be honest, was beyond our means at the time.  We cherished every moment. A lot has happened since then.  A move, buying a house, seeing those years of hard work pay off.  And now….we did it.  We’re back.  Lazy river here we come. TLDR? If you’re in the thick of it, I see you.  We’ve been there. Family, Welcome Home……we did it.  Aulani for the week.
Now, if I’m being totally honest…..this pulled Now, if I’m being totally honest…..this pulled muscle? I should have known better.  When training for my race, I didn’t stretch or warm up enough most days and….here we are.Lesson learned.  I’m 4 weeks post race (do not recommend running a 10k on a pulled muscle) and I’m……almost better.  I’m learning to stretch and walk and to take better care of myself so that I can start running again REALLY soon (we’re almost there I think).For now? I’m doing recovery walks and trying to strengthen my leg.  And trying to make sure I get enough protein.  When I talked about Built Bars on my stories, a LOTTTTT of you raced about their Puffs.  Yup, I get it.  They’re AMAZING.  I’ve been bringing them along on my walks (and gluten free friends….they have some great options for us).Have you ever pulled a muscle? What was recovery like for you?#youGOTTAtrythis #BUILTProtein #BUILT #BUILTbar partner
💕Double Tap when you see who we found at the zo 💕Double Tap when you see who we found at the zoo (and swipe to the end for a close up)⠀⠀🌴Coming to San Diego for Spring Break or a Summer Vacation?⠀⠀📍Let’s talk San Diego Zoo (and yes, I got off a plane yesterday, picked up Lydia and we spent the afternoon at the zoo…..it was LOVELY).⠀⠀A few things to help you plan visits to San Diego and the Zoo:⠀1️⃣ the San Diego Zoo and Safari Park are NOT close together.  The Zoo is close to downtown, the Safari Park is about 25 miles north.  I’d suggest one day at each.  They’re totally unique and both worth a visit.  The Safari Park is smaller, but has REALLY unique exhibits (Walkabout Australia is my favorite).⠀2️⃣ both have some really fun and unique dining experiences that you can reserve in advance: Albert’s at the Zoo is a FANCY and fun sit down option, and The Watering Hole at Kijamii Overlook at the Safari Park is great for happy hour or a fun lunch ⠀3️⃣ there are great kids play areas at both locations, the Wildlife Explorers Base Camp area at the San Diego Zoo is brand new and absolutely amazing⠀⠀✨ Now, a bonus tip.  Undercover Tourist now has NATIONWIDE savings on over 500 attractions in 50 cities and up to 25% on tickets for theme parks, zoo, museums, aquariums, city tours, water parks, and movie tickets. And the deals they have for San Diego?  AMAZING (I’m sharing details in my stories).⠀⠀@themeparkfrog #UncoverSavingsNationwide #ad
In high school, I wasn’t supposed to cross the b In high school, I wasn’t supposed to cross the bridge without permission.⠀⠀I grew up about 20 minutes from San Francisco, on the OTHER side of the Golden Gate Bridge.  Yes, you know that opening scene in Full House where they’re driving across the bridge? I was on the other side of that.  And one of MOST parents’ rules where I grew up? No going into the city without permission.  Sorry mom and dad, it’s been long enough…..now I can disclose that we broke that rule constantly.⠀⠀San Francisco is my favorite city.  It’s intimate and moody and filled with history and some of the best food in the world.  It reminds me of childhood trips to the zoo and Golden Gate Park, it reminds me of my first apartment after college and my first serious relationship.  It reminds me of 22 year old carefree nights with friends and milkshakes at Mels in high school and coffee in North Beach and nights in the Marin Headlands (the closest we were supposed to get to the bridge).⠀⠀So when I had the opportunity to spend 20 hours in my city by the Bay? I took it.⠀⠀Photo Diary:⠀1) nothing like a hotel room to yourself ⠀2) basically drove through a monsoon in San Diego yesterday to make it to the airport⠀3) through the fog? You can see the Golden Gate Bridge⠀4) SFO ⠀5) drove right through North Beach where my mom lived until she was 2, and texted her this photo of a church where she remembers going to weddings as a child⠀6) dinner with Dove, talking about the importance of diversity and representation in gaming avatars ⠀7 and 8) anyone else got a roblox fan in their house? Dove is changing the game (pun intended) and we love to see it.⠀⠀Have you been to San Francisco?
