Fashion Fun With Leather


Welcome to the season where many designers are making affordable and stylish leather pieces. The Leather trend is one that is very popular among many, as we all know Kanye West is no stranger to leather. He rocks his leather skinny pants with almost everything; he has also introduced his chic girlfriend Kim Kardashian to the trend as well.  

During Fashion Night Out many designers and stars were out wearing their leather pieces. At the Alice +Olivia show in New York Angela Simmons wore an all black leather look with a nice bright bold lip, and fashion stylist June Ambrose also rocked a nice leather jacket over her black and grey cocktail dress. While most of their pieces are very costly there are affordable designers that offer the leather look as well.



In some of my previous postings I have used many looks from Top Shop (www.topshop.com). The reason why I recommended Top Shop is because they offer many fashion forward pieces that are affordable; they have a Ruch leather skirt by Boutique that will have you runway ready for the fall. The price of the skirt is ($190); the color is oxblood which is a nice dark burgundy which happens to be the color for this fall. You can pair this skirt with a nice grey sweater, black tights and some black booties.


Leather or not is the new collection that is offered at Urban Outfitters this fall. The collection offers skirts, tights, shorts and even some shirts that have some type of leather. Urban Renewal offers fitted leather shorts that are pierced with remnant leather accents, a zipper appears to be on the back and depending on your body type they can fit high waisted. The price of the shorts is ($59); you can purchase the shorts at (www.UrbanOutfitters.com). You can pair the shorts with a nice vintage shirt and a pair of your favorite heels.


 Take your fashion to another level by adding some abstract of leather to your wabrobe. Have fun with the leather pieces that you find and wear. If you happen to get stares and frowns when you wear your leather pieces just let people know if Kim and Kayne can pull it off so can I.
