What are your tips for styling leggings?
"I think leggings get a bad rap because of the implication that they are lazy, but I think they are in the running to be the most hard-working pair of pants in my closet. They help my wardrobe be more versatile by making my warm-weather dresses winter appropriate, they look great with boots, and when you're dealing with leather they can make an outfit out of almost any top. I especially love how leather leggings toughen up a short dress, tempering the sexiness of cocktail attire and adding a little bit of dark edge to the look."

Olga struts it in Zara leggings, a Barneys Co-Op dress, Alexander Wang heels, J.Crew necklace, Stitch & Hammer clutch, and Kathleen Whitaker earrings.
