When the weather is rotten like it is today, there's one thing I always reach for in my wardrobe - black leather trousers. They really are ridiculously practical and easy to style, and as Rachel Weisz reminded us back in June, they're incredibly chic, too.
She attended an event in New York dressed head to toe in Chanel, teaming her trousers with a printed shirt, a quilted white bag and slingback heels to complete the look. A good pair of leather trousers will immediately become an autumn capsule wardrobe staple, and certainly it took me a good few years to find the perfect pair. A tapered shape like Rachel's is universally flattering, and feels like an elevated alternative to black trousers or blue jeans.
