So what leather (or faux) skinnies did you get? Do you wear them EVERYWHERE?!

I love them and love the look of leather skinny and big jumper.

I just wondered which I should go for?

They are £££ but would you say good value in terms of cost per wear?

Thanks

I bought some from Mint Velvet last year. Loved them all winter with chunky jumpers but haven't touched them since last January. They weren't cheap but I'd say they worked out ok in terms of CPW because they still look perfect and I'm going to dig them out again today and start wearing them.

I was out last night and saw someone wearing them but with a black leather jacket on top, the leather version of double denim. A bit too Cher 1980's for me, definitely a knit on top.

I think they look fab but I don't have the confidence to wear them.

I wear them for a night out with heels and really like them - I agree that they don't go well with a leather jacket though. I think they would be great with a chunky knit but what shoes would you wear in colder weather?

I worry they'd be really hot!

And unwashable....

Just bought a pair of leather ponte leggings from M&S. Cheaper than full leather and fit very well. I wear them with trainers and big jumpers during the day, and heels and top for night. Wouldn't wear them with a leather jacket.

Couldn't bring myself to shell out £300 for full leather, the M&S ones were under £100 with the 20% off. Definitely try on as many styles as you can - some looked horrific on me, some looked great.
