TRY A LITTLE LEATHER (FAUX OR REAL)

Have you ever thought of leather? I don't mean purses, shoes, jackets or sofas. I mean leather apparel. Most of us who wear leather, limit it to accessories or outerwear. But leather can have a nice appeal, whether it is faux or real.It gives that edgy feel and does give a particular look to an outfit. For women, wearing leather can be a little daring and sexy. A leather mini skirt or a clingy pair of leather pants is not the conservative woman's look. But she can certainly try to add a little attitude to her wardrobe.Leather has its own personality and it says a little abut the personality style of the wearer.

Lately, I have been researching various leather looks and found it dating way back. From the "Cowboys" to the Dominatrix; it has never left the fashion world. Leather can convey sexy, sultry, easy, funky, rock star, and of course it can look fabulous. Current trends are leaning towards colour, as leather apparel now comes in a variety of hues. No longer are you limited to wearing just black.

Step out of your wardrobe comfort zone and try a little leather with your outfit. If you don't want to go all the way, how about some mixing and matching. For example, a black (or coloured) leather vest and a white shirt can spunk  up a pair of skinny jeans with some fabulous boots. Go for a different look, try a little leather!
