Hybrid Leather Boot Pants

The Tamara Mellon Leather Legging Boots are the Best of Both Worlds

— December 11, 2013 — Fashion
Designer Tamara Mellon has done one for all the lazy girls who don't exactly want their style sense to show off their indolent habits.


A thigh high boot that pulls up right into a legging, these pant/boot hybrids are stylish, quick and easy. The heel of this chic half onesie measures approximately 90 mm/3.5 inches and don't worry about dressing it up -- it does wear quite well. Throw a baggy sweater over these leather boot pants and you're stunning in a fall look that is similar to a three piece outfit without all the trouble. Anything you would normally wear with leather leggings and some boots can creatively be taken to another level with these nifty pants.

Tamar Mellon has definitely set the bar for fashion creativity with her newest design. I just hope no one ever wears these in a home where they have to take off their shoes before entry.
