How to Style a Leather Skirt

Fall

skirt | similar sweater | belt | booties | sunglasses

It’s no secret, I’m really into leather (posts here and here) and sweaters (posts here, here, and here) this fall. Sooo… why not combine the two into a fun leather/sweater combo!? This black velvet Rachel Parcell belt really brought the look together, and I think the snakeskin bootie adds a little pizazz! I love a great pencil skirt, but a leather pencil skirt can elevate your fall and winter look with a few tips.

  • Opt for heeled booties or pumps to elongate and proportion your body.
  • Let the leather skirt be the statement – meaning, try not to let the other items in your look speak louder than the leather piece. Keep it balanced!
  • Confidence! I got my very first leather skirt when I was in 5th grade. I remember I was always so excited the day I wore it, which my mom paired with an adorable white penguin sweatshirt. It also made me want to run and skip over benches, like these pics below… what has changed from my 5th grade self to today? Not much, I guess!

Only a few more days left of fall- then its officially winter! Being cold isn’t my favorite – but when I lived in Ohio (for two freezing cold winters) a friend reminded me – there’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing. So this winter, I’ve decided not to suffer through the cold, and instead look forward to ‘good clothing’ and more cold weather fashion inspiration to share with all of you. What are you looking forward to this winter? I’d love to hear, thanks so much for reading and sharing!
