STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Leather Weather

February 9th, 2016 at 2:00am

Leather is huge right now, but for some of us, it is way too cold to go out in just a skirt. Don’t let your cute leather skirt—or any skirt for that matter—collect dust during these colder months. You can still wear it. You just have to winterize it!

This leather trend has been going on for a while now, and I can’t see the fashion industry giving it up any time soon. Black leather matches anything and can take any outfit from girly to edgy. My favorite part about this Fashionista’s skirt is the zippers that accentuate her waist. A little detail that would normally go unnoticed, but the way they are positioned on the skirt adds shape.

Making this skirt winter ready is pretty simple by grabbing a pair of black tights. Next, add a sweater with some color. This maroon is still really popular and looks amazing paired with the leather! Then, grab a scarf or some chunky jewelry. I love the black and white blanket scarf this Fashionista has on. It has neutral colors, making the scarf go with any outfit. Finally, grab a pair of black leather booties to match your skirt. The buckles on this Fashionista’s booties pull the whole outfit together.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Don’t be afraid to dig out those skirts that you put away for the winter. You can do so much with them, making multiple outfits and expanding your wardrobe. Don’t limit your wardrobe to the season. Make your wardrobe work year-round.”
