Mary Portas' leather trousers are a wardrobe stape
Leather in any form is an investment piece, because the great thing about it is, it gets better with age.
Whether you opt for brand new or vintage you know it'll see you through seasons and seasons to come.
Leather pants have certainly made a comeback this year and Miranda Kerr has certainly shown that she's a fan of them, wearing them on a number of occasions. Even when she's just running errands in New York with Flynn.
Balmain has to be the designer go-to for the item, but if your budget won't cover the hefty price tag (prices start from £1,000 upwards) then we can thankfully trust the British High Street to bring us the next best thing.
These stunning black pair, designed by Mary Portas - the leading retail marketing consultant - will see you through day and night events.
Women's Mary Portas Skinny leather trouser, Black
A top tip is to always wear with heels though, you need to elongate your legs as much as possible. Flats will only make you look dumpy and nobody wants that.
Available from House of Fraser, on sale for £132 from £220.
