STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Lovin' Leather

January 21st, 2015 at 2:00am

There’s nothing better this season than lots and lots of leather. Rain or shine, warm or cold,  Fashionistas/os all over are rocking leather pants, jackets, boots and accessories. There’s nothing better than slipping into a leather jacket for day, and than transitioning that same jacket to an evening look. This week’s post is all about how to make your look moto-chic with a bunch of leather pieces.

This Fashionista is wearing a faux leather skirt, graphic T-shirt and black tights accessorized with black booties with gold buckles and a gold chain necklace. Her outfit is a creative take on how to make a graphic top and faux leather skirt a contemporary rocker-chic. Additionally, her amazing red ombré hair almost serves as a pop of color in the outfit’s minimal color palette. This Fashionista did a great job with pairing her leather pieces with a casual graphic shirt and gold accessories to make day to night look.

This outfit could have been equally as good if the faux leather skirt was switched out with some leather pants. It would turn this originally girly moto-chic outfit into something a bit edgier. To make it slightly more dressed up, you could switch out her booties for a pair of strappy heels for an elegant look. Take it even further and add a blouse or a silk tank top for an evening look.

Leather is a great way to make an outfit go from cute to edgy. It’s a great material that can work for a casual Sunday outfit, or for a night out with the girls. If you aren’t convinced yet, try some leather pants or leggings with a white T-shirt. You can’t go wrong with that outfit!

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I hardly ever splurge on shoes, but these leather booties were hard to resist. I loved the gold detailing, and they go with almost everything! Can’t go wrong with these heels!”
