I’ve wanted leather pants for as long as I can remember and for the most part, black and slim have always been the theme. However looking at this cool green version, colored leather is looking very nice. While  the side embroidery hints at a Mariachi suit, the look  can work. Available at Asos.

Lost Art by Jordan Betten is alive and well.  His iconic leather pants as styled by Donald Lawrence above are the stuff our fashion dreams are made of…

Thanks to a video tape showing Kanye West going off on the lighting guy for messing up the lights (though some are saying it’s part of the act and he’s doing the same thing in all his shows) for “All Of The Lights” during his “Watch The Throne” concert this past weekend, a lot of people are also noticing the outfit West performed in. The top is Givenchy but no one seems to have identified the leather skirt yet (perhaps lent by Marc Jacobs?). The kicks are the Nike Air Yeezy style launching later this month. 

Anyway, interesting to see rap fashion trend less conservatively. From Lil Wayne’s leopard leggings to now Kanye in a skirt, it certainly makes for more compelling entertainment. And who knows, maybe it’s a positive sign that rap is becoming less obsessed with the “no homo” sadness of the early 00s.

See the video clip on the next page.

Kanye rocks relaxed-fit leather jeans to perfection, pairing them with a vee-neck charcoal sweater and his soon-to-be-launched Nike Air Yeezy kicks, which a sneaker buyer  tells us will launch on Black Friday. This is a look that any female could wear, too, and yet it still works for a guy like Kanye who has a feel for style plus loads of confidence. Nice Apple laptop Kanye is toting, too……can’t help but wondering what juicy files are to found therein!

Not sure where I found these today (and not positive they’re leather either!) but I know for sure they are head turners!

Finding a classic pair of leather can be quite the task.While the most common has been the 5pocket denim style, we greatly admire Damir Doma’s sleek version that you would agree is timelessness and edge personified. A closer look on the next page, available  at the beloved ln-cc.
