The season for leather trousers has finally arrived, and we're taking styling inspiration from Victoria Beckham's relaxed yet refined street style look from 2018 that's just as fashionable today.
Nothing completes a winter capsule wardrobe quite like a pair of sleek leather trousers. A chic and comfortable alternative to jeans, they are smart enough for the office with an edgy feel that will take you to Christmas nights out and beyond.
You can trust Victoria Beckham to know just how to style these daring bottoms. Opting for a simple white tee and pointed heels, she captured the high-low look perfectly whilst keeping the look endlessly versatile. We can't think of any occasion her ensemble wouldn't work for, and it's an outfit recipe that will never date.
Shop VB's style
Made from 100% leather, this is a pair of trousers that will stand the test of time. With the same straight leg cut as Victoria's trousers, they're the perfect everyday fit.
Cos t-shirts are known as some of the best on the high street - and they're reasonably priced too. Just the right amount of oversized, this tee can be tucked into any bottoms for a sleek look.
With a small kitten heel, these heels are sophisticated and refined but not too impractical. A pointed toe looks especially good peeking out of wide leg silhouettes like barrel leg jeans too.
If you usually go for wide leg jeans over skinnies, go for wide cut leather trousers instead. Airy and comfortable but still flattering, they're a wardrobe staple.
Make the look suitable for wet weather with these water resistant Chelsea boots that will pair just as well with tights and skirts for the autumnal months.
An alternative to a white tee that's just as sophisticated, this fluffy wrap-around cardigan is the ideal length to pair with leather trousers. Plus, we love the addition of some texture that will complement buttery leather.
Although Victoria's leather trousers look is now several years old, it looks just as current and trendy today as it did then. And it's clear her penchant for wearing leather hasn't changed, as she sported an unexpected chic leather neck scarf just a few weeks ago.
If you've found your seasonal wardrobe falling slightly flat and you want to invest in pieces that are easy to style, versatile, and will elevate any look with minimal effort, nothing ticks those boxes better than leather trousers.
Nothing beats a crisp white tee, but leather trousers can also be easily dressed up and made more cosy with a Sezane Gaspard cardigan and a pair of suede boots. Or if you prefer a more casual look, a pair of the best white trainers makes a chic change from VB's stilettos.
