In a Fall Fashion preview from one of our local magazines, the writer gives a nice plug for adding something leather to your wardrobe. My take is that anyone can own a black leather jacket, but it takes some fashion daring to pull off a black leather skirt. I agree with the writer about pairing it with a white flouncy blouse, but not about pairing it with zebra tights. My ideal "black leather skirt look" is a slim, pencil-style skirt paired with a crisp white blouse, wide black leather sash belt, and black leather pumps or boots. Angelina Jolie came close to perfecting this look recently (see photo)!
"You will want to add, if you don't already have it, something leather, especially in black, to your wardrobe for the fall and winter. A leather jacket, or a jacket with leather accents. A leather skirt will take you anywhere. Make it innocent with a winter white flouncy blouse. Take it out on the town with zebra tights and a geometric top. Make it weekend casual with an oversized sweater, tights and flat boots. Ditch your ideas about leather being only for the rockstars. Anyone can wear leather and make it classy...and sassy!"
