The daily steal: Leather pants, $79

Leather isn’t the first thing you throw on when the weather turns warm, but more than a few designers put leather pieces into their spring collections. Even if you don’t want to don these slim-cut leather jeans from Danier in the sticky months, at only $79 (on sale from $249, danier.com) they’re a cracking investment for your fall wardrobe.
