A Celebrity Stylist Reveals THE Best Leggings for Fall

When she’s not working with big names like Lupita Nyong’o, Jennifer Hudson, and Hilary Swank, celebrity stylist Micaela Erlanger also divulges her fashion expertise in our Ask a Stylist column. From the best places to source vintage to the secret to finding your most flattering jeans, come back each week for a professional’s perspective.
At this point, leggings have become a staple in most of our closets, but when it comes to wearing the athleisure trend outside of the gym, I prefer to opt for sleek leather or luxe suede options. I traditionally shop for ones with minimal detailing (I like to keep it simple) and let these rich materials do the talking. My favorite pairs are from Alice + Olivia and Vince; both brands make amazing fits that are stylish and insanely comfortable.
