8. The Mesh Top & Leather Pants

Leather pants have a natural edginess, so softening them with a sheer, floral, or patterned mesh top is a great way to introduce femininity into a look that otherwise feels very “rock-and-roll.”

How to Make

Wear a pair of slim-fit, straight-leg faux leather pants. Pair them with a long-sleeve, sheer mesh top with a delicate floral or abstract print. Underneath, wear a high-quality camisole or a structured bralette. The mesh adds a layer of softness and visual complexity that contrasts beautifully with the sleek, solid surface of the leather. Finish with chunky loafers. This look is perfect for nighttime events or a cool city outing.

Things Needed

  • Faux leather pants
  • Printed mesh long-sleeve top
  • High-quality camisole or bralette
