SPRING LEATHER: THE SKIRT

Well good Tuesday, my sweet readers! I’m writing to you from my bed, with an excrutiating stomach ache, but hey, work has to be done right? After a couple of sans post days, I’m back to deliver the fourth of my Spring Leather series. Today we are going to be talking about the leather skirt, an item that got so popular last season (we all got our cream or black, elastic waisted, Zara pleated skirt) and that stuck around for this one. Spring leather is always more fun, whether you go metallic, pastel, neon or even basic black, you are in for the kill if you style it right. Here’s the selection of skirts you can find online:

SKIRT SELECTION

TOP: Oasis Stores / Topshop / Marc Jacobs

MIDDLE: Chloe / Marni / Stephen Sprouse

BOTTOM: Karl Sachi / Monki / Miu Miu

LOOK OF THE DAY

I’m back to pastels, this time mixed in with leather (coincidentally, pastel and leather are my two all-time obsessions). This look is cute, it’s flirty and it’s comfy, dare to try it out?

All details from today’s look can be found at FASHIOLISTA

We still have one leathery post on the works, then I’m gonna start tackling Summer trends. Bikini season is just around the corner (I’m seriously considering a Jersey Shore fake tan, I look like a steamed dumpling) and Sweet’n'Raw has all the fashion scoop.

SPRING LEATHER: THE PANTS

Little Friday my sweet readers, the weekend is just around the corner! I am here, armed and ready, with another post from Sweet’n'Raw’s Spring Leather series. Today is all about pants! Before temperatures reach boiling point, leather pants are a sexy way to flatter you legs without actually showing them. Let me tell you something, men go crazy for women in leather pants. Are you ready to take yours out to play? Here’s a selection you can find online!

SELECTION

TOP: J Brand / J Brand / Curent Elliot

BOTTOM: Roberto Cavalli / Joseph / Notify

LOOK OF THE DAY

I wanted to go a little bohemian, hence the lace and suede. I rarely wear black, in fact, it’s my least favorite color, but when it comes to leather pants, black is definitely my favorite.

ACCESSORIES:

BEAUTY:

  • Carry on nail polish, ESSIE

For all the details on today’s look, go to FASHIOLISTA

What do you think about this look? I think that the straw hat gives it a fun twist. Ready to try this trend out? Just remember, wear a sheer or light top and sandals (let’s avoid the I think it’s still Winter look).

SPRING LEATHER: THE SHORTS

We are halfway through with this week, time flies my sweet readers! Today I have for you the second part of our Spring Leather series. I have been obsessed with leather for a while now, everything I design has to always have at least a hint of it. Leather shorts are resourceful and cool, you can wear them in Spring with a sheer top and sandals, on fall with some tights and a jacket and even on Winter with a pair if boots. If you ask me, a caramel shade has to be inside you closet (I can guarantee, you’ll wear them out). Here’s a selection you can find online:

SELECTION

TOP: Vince / Chloe / A.P.C.

MIDDLE: 3.1 Phillip Lim / Kelly Bergin / TOPSHOP

BOTTOM: Emma Cook / Ralph Lauren / TOPSHOP

LOOK OF THE DAY

Mustard, bottle green and navy are a combo that usually works for me. Add a touch of crimson and you are good to go. I love the athletic touch on the shorts, very trendy right now!
