A reader recently commented and asked about these faux leather leggings I had included in my first #NSale roundup, and I knew they deserved their own post. I’ve shared these leggings before in posts here, here and here. Today I wanted to share how I wear them in warmer months because trust me, these leggings will be your favorite pair!
They feel nothing like leather or faux leather. They feel like comfortable, stretchy leggings that have the tummy control, firming and smoothing that all magical Spanx products have. I also think this look would work for the office (along with this one). If your work dress code is anti-leggings (been there gf!), I would substitute leggings for these pants. I owned about 4 pairs of them when I worked in the corporate world!
Some of my favorite #NSale leather and faux leather picks:
I love these so much I have them in two colors. I think they are one of the most versatile and stylish pairs of leggings that are out there. They’re marked down in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale until Sunday, so you still have a few days to save over $30 on a pair!

I actually own these leggings, I bought them full price months ago, bummer I know. But I am contemplating buying another pair as back up. They are super comfy and have a great hold which I love. I have a very straight waist and leggings never stay up on me but these do. You look great in the leggings and I love how you have styled them with the long white vest!
Thanks for sharing!

Don’t be bummed – at least you’ve been able to enjoy them!
Ooh, I love your leggings! They look amazing! Leather-style outfits seem difficult for the Summer though, I feel like they’re hard to be breathable in and usually make me feel sweaty! Ha! Sorry for the TMI!
I hope you have a lovely Thursday,

That’s why I love this pair – they don’t do that because they are more of a legging than faux leather or leather. They just LOOK like faux leather!
Kathleen – I could not agree more. The faux leather Spanx are a must have for every one of your readers! I live in mine.
Yasssss Susan! You go girl!
I love seeing how you style these for summer! I have recently seen more people start playing with leather pieces for summer and it’s just so fun and versatile! These look great and I love that they have firming and smoothing! xx

I absolutely LOVE everything about this outfit for warmer leather. The lightweight sweater + sleeveless blazer combo is a dream! You must link these. And who could resist those little faux leather babies? You’re gorge! Xx
Sadly they’re both really old so I linked similar styles!
No worries!! That’s bound to happen at some point. Thanks girl!
Can’t get enough of this look!

So I went out of my comfort zone and got some of these leggings last year, but I struggle with what to wear with them. I get self conscious about my rear hanging out there. They look so fab on you, that I want to break them out! Could you do a round up of longer tops that work with these?
I link three other posts in this one where I’ve styled these leggings – that should help some!
This look is everything but I wish that exact vest was still available, I like how it doesn’t have buttons/pockets
Me too! Sadly this vest is like…. five years old. So old!
This outfit is lovely! The way you created a sophisticated, professional look with leggings just impresses me. I always just throw on leggings for lazy days, haha!

Hi! How do these run? I feel like the Nordstrom reviews are all over the place!
I think if you’re in between sizes I would size up!
You’re my style inspiration.
I love leather everything! But how do you wear that in the summer??
