A Little Leather Goes A Long Way

imageAside from a leather jacket or leather shoes, leather (or faux leather) can be a difficult material to pull off. While head-to-toe leather is usually reserved for hard-core biker chicks and goth girls, and may be more scary than stylish, a little leather trim can go a long way. Added to simple basics like feminine cardigans or jackets, leather trim can add instant edge. It looks unique and fashionably daring when added to pants and would-be basic tops, and dangerously sexy on skirts and dresses. Leather trim is a interesting way to make a piece more modern or hip and definitely gets points in the ‘too cool for school’ department. So try adding a little bit of leather in your ensemble to give it a chic and tough vibe without feeling like Catwoman and her amazing (-ly uncomfortable looking) patent leather costume.
