I also did not know that Stuart Weitzman had been acquired by Coach earlier this year - another company that has made some very nice tall boots!

Happy Birthday, Tina Fey!
Happy 45th Birthday to Tina Fey! Although she doesn't wear leather very often, she looks great when she does, whether it's boots, leggings, pants, or even a daring leather top.

Candace Cameron...all grown up and in black leather!
Today's announcement that the late 1980s sitcom "Full House" is returning on Netflix somehow brought several posts on Facebook. Of course, the one featuring series star Candace Cameron Bure in a sleeveless white top and black leather pants was the one that got my attention!
The sleeveless white top and black leather pants seems like such a simple look to put together, yet it's so sexy! A great date look to transition from summer into fall or winter into spring!
Of course, this isn't the first time we've seen Candace rocking some great Leather Looks.
Here she is on the red carpet sporting a nice black leather dress.
Finally, a nice studio shot where she appears to be wearing Stuart Weitzman 50/50 over-the-knee boots.

Kate Upton accepts People's "Sexiest Woman Alive" in what else? Black leather!
So if you're Kate Upton and accepting People's "Sexiest Woman Alive" Award, how better to dress for the occasion than rocking a hot black leather outfit and stiletto pumps!
Although I saw a reference to it being a "leather pencil dress," I'm not so sure. The top, which is amazing, has a real lambskin-sheen to it while the skirt has more of a matte, print look to it. Of course, we may never know if it's dress or leather top and skirt because she's wearing a wide black leather belt - also very hot!
A quick search reveals that this is not the first time Ms. Upton has rocked a Leather Look, such as what's definitely a leather dress at some kind of GQ event.
And while we're at it, here are a few bonus looks at Ms. Upton rocking some great Leather Looks, including leather skirts, jackets, thigh-high boots, and long leather gloves!

Some nice long black leather gloves from a UK retailer
I was looking around online for some deals on long leather gloves and came across this 2013 article from UK retailer Black Co. with five different ways to pair long leather gloves. They range from the traditional pairing with a little black dress to a surprising "grown up biker" look.
These very nice gloves measure about 24.5" and will set you back about $172 at today's conversion rate.
I was also intrigued by this very cool style featuring a diagonal zipper. These measure 17" long.
I don't know about where you are, but it's definitely "long leather glove" weather where I am. Stay warm and in style!

Halloween - to costume or not to costume
It's been years since I wore a Halloween costume, especially to work.
Although we don't have an office policy about wearing costumes that I'm
aware of, there are always a few of my co-workers, usually the younger women, who get adventurous and dress up.
So I got to thinking today what I would wear as a costume to the office. I started poking around on the Internet and came across a 2013 article on Babble.com called "10 Halloween Costumes You Won't Be Embarrassed To Wear To Work" and loved the first look I saw - a spy or secret agent.
I could actually pull this off and wouldn't feel too self-conscious (I think). It's basically a trench coat, sexy boots, leather gloves, and some dark sunglasses. This happens to be one of my favorite fall/winter looks!
The writer of the website actually got her inspiration from a fashion blogger whose site I haven't visited for a long time, lovemaegan.com Besides being a gorgeous blonde, she has a great fashion sense and puts together some incredible looks! To say I'm envious would be an understatement! In addition to the photos below, you can see her incredible look here, although I don't think I could wear the coat as a dress like she does! And those boots are a-mazing!
That said, I'd have to have another great "costume" look underneath, which also happens to be featured in the article. This time, it's Bonnie Parker of the classic bank robber movie, "Bonnie and Clyde." This look basically involves a short-sleeved, sweater, pencil skirt, scarf, and beret (gun optional). Another classic look and the only things I would do is to update the look with a leather pencil skirt and an infinity scarf.

Target gets into some nice over-the-knee boot action for $50
Target gets into the over-the-knee boot action this season with this intriguing pair of Xhilaration boots for $49.99, on sale this week for $42.49. Unfortunately, they're only available online as I'd really like to see these in person or at least on a model.
Kudos to the copywriter:
Long, lean and super sexy, the Xhilaration Women's Nate Over the Knee Boots are going to make you a true standout in a crowd. More than just over the knee, these thigh high womens boots really take it to that next level. The unembellished, simple black boot is extremely slimming and it leads the pack of todays hottest trends. This is the look you want to adopt and make your own before someone else beats you to it. You're going to look amazing.
They're getting good reviews and they look like a decent boot for the price and the style. However, I found it interesting that "Tall gal shopper" actually thinks these are leather!
The style reminds me of the Jeffrey Campbell "Militant" boots ($99.99), and considering those are not real leather either, the Target boots are a much better deal. The matte material on the Target boots also makes them look more like real leather than the Jeffrey Campbell boots.
Both pairs appear to be based on the no-longer-in-production Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" OTK boots, which I own and are my favorite low-heeled boots. Although I'd never pay the original retail price of $650, these appear occasionally on eBay.
