Three Ways to Wear Leather

Leather is the new denim.

It is not only going to be a huge trend for this upcoming Fall season but it is such a versatile piece. It has become my go-to uniform and below I show you how it can be styled in three different ways.

In addition to leather, cropped tops are also trending in every category, ranging from t-shirts and woven tops to knits and sweaters. Although the cropped sweatshirt can make an outfit casual, adding a touch of edge with the leather mini skirt can take this outfit from day to night. I added a reflective clutch with a bold lip to play up the leather more and add some shine.

~ Leather with a graphic tee ~

My obsession with graphic tees is growing everyday. Although graphic tees are more summer wear, you can transition it into fall by adding a leather skirt with any outerwear pieces. Here, I took it one step further with my smoke eye makeup to give this outfit more of a grunge rocker look.

I love using denim as a contrast for my dressy, edgy pieces in my wardrobe. I've worn this chambray top with denim before but here, I wanted to pair it with leather to make it more playful with different textures and fabrications. Pairing it with a pop color accessory can take any outfit and add a fun factor to it. Here, I paired it with a red beanie making it a perfect transition for fall.

Which is your favorite look? How would you style a leather skirt?
