Fall Fashion

Leather Four Ways

September 10, 2014

A leather jacket is the most versatile piece to complete any fall ensemble. Here are four ways to style your favorite leather jacket…

DETAILS | oxfords (similar) | jeans (old) | shirt (similar) | sweater | jacket

IN LIEU OF A BLAZER | Tell your blazer you’re making leather your new preppy essential. Mix it with classic fall plaids, button-down shirts, a pair of ripped denim (or slacks for the office) and fun slip-on oxfords. Reading glasses and your favorite book, encouraged.

DETAILS | sneakers (old) | sweats | tee | necklace | jacket

WEEKEND WEARABLE | The weekend often finds us leaving the house less than presentable — dare I say, t-shirt and sweatpants? Support your loungewear unapologetically by throwing on a leather jacket and wedge sneakers. See? You’re completely stylish even for that quick donut run!

DETAILS | sneakers | dress (in stores) | tee (old) | necklace | jacket

WITH A DRESS | Fall weather can be unpredictable. Don’t part ways with your summer maxi just yet. Layer it with a graphic tee for a little more interest, while adding sneakers to keep it casual. Top it off with your leather jacket — a warm layer and yet another reason to go play out on the town.

DETAILS | jeans | tee | necklace | jacket

WITH A WHITE TEE | A plain white tee might not look like much on its own, but when paired with a leather jacket and quality denim, it becomes a forever classic. Ground your ensemble by keeping accessories to a minimum — let your simple look speak for itself!

    Totally loving the layers in the first look.

    I really love all the looks. Since I am over 45, the last look will suit me the best. You look great as usual!

    in every instance, I love the way you’ve paired this! though, number two is probably my favorite simply because I love any excuse to leave the house in sweats and a t-shirt 🙂

    love, arielle

    What kind of shoes are you wearing in the last simple look?! I love it! Just hoping the shoes would be okay for Michigan winter or fall. I love the flares but can never find shoes to go with.

    How is the sizing with that jacket? I think we are about the same size and am wondering if you mind sharing which size you ordered. Thank you!
