Since fall temperatures are nowhere in sight here in San Diego, I’m still reaching for my shorts and tanks for no. If you’re in Southern California or a similar climate, you will probably understand the frustration of trying to transition your wardrobe into fall while also dressing for the weather. If you’re like me and want to wear fall-appropriate items but the weather just won’t let up, ditch the denim cut-offs and instead reach for a pair of leather shorts to pair with your camis and knit tanks. And to my cold-weather girls: don’t be afraid to style leather shorts in cooler climates this fall!

Tonight I’m sharing my guide and tups on how to style leather shorts all year long including for fall and winter! Keep reading to see all my style options and a full Shopping Edit with looks for every budget!

LAYERED WITH A BLAZER OR LONG CARDIGAN

The ultimate cool-girl look is a pair of leather shorts paired with an oversized blazer or long cardigan. There’s something unexpected about the contrast of leather and a blazer. And you girls know I love long cardigans, the length difference adds so much dimension to a look…plus it’s a cute way to stay warmer while styling shorts!

STYLED WITH A CHUNKY SWEATER + BOOTS

A super simple yet chic way to style leather shorts is to pair them with a chunky oversized knit, tights and booties. This combination will become a go-to in your fall rotation because it’s so easy to quickly pick these pieces out of your wardrobe for an edgy look. Not to mention, this combination is a great way to get cost-per-wear out of your sweaters, shorts, and boots because the combinations are endless when working with black shorts + boots.

PAIRED WITH COATS & COOL TIGHTS

Instead of styling your jeans on repeat this season try pairing your shorts with a cool pair of tights. This is such a fun, edgy twist on shorts and will simultaneously keep you from falling into a denim rut. This combination is perfect for anyone in colder climates for a little extra coverage. For even more warmth, finish off your look with a chic long coat.
