It’s around 78 degrees here in Houston, but I heard faux leather leggings are all the rave this time of year lol. I can’t wait until it is cold enough for me to start wearing them at least twice a week. Not only are they a great way to keep warm, but I love how stylish they can make a Fall/Winter outfit. You may want to know where to start when shopping for them online. So, since online shopping is all I do, here’s a quick starter guide of plus size brands that carry faux leather leggings and how you can style them.
These are my most comfortable faux leather leggings from Spanx. I’ve literally accidentally put jeans on top of them because I forgot I had them on. They are by far the most stretchy and breatheable pair of leggings I own. You may not be able to tell, but I have shapewear on under these leggings. They are the Thinstincts High Waisted Power Shorts, which are great for smoothing and control. They’re also very unnoticeable under the most form fitting attire.

These leather leggings are from Torrid. (exact ones are linked in the text, similar pictured below) If you are looking for faux leather leggings that are on the more affordable side, then these would be perfect for you! They are on the thicker side so they are perfect for cold or cooler weather. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT wear these on a warm day or you will pass out from dehydration lol.

Here are some ways that I’ve styled faux leather leggings over the years. It’s not hard at all. If you are worried about cellulite, shape wear underneath will help smooth that out. Though, I didn’t experience much of my cellulite showing in the Spanx faux leather leggings. However, the shaper I would suggest is the Thinsticts High Waisted Shorts. Below, check out all of the plus size faux leather leggings I found during my online shopping session.
