Leather Bound Chic

So I still can't get enough of Leather/PU skirts, weather you prefer the real thing or like the look without having to wear leather (vegan etc). Everyone can now get this look easy, I think if you do go for leather than vintage is always great as  there is a sea of leather skirts from the 80s and is great for any of you Eco girls. 


If you don't do vintage than there are lots of choices on the high street, if you don't do leather there are heaps of leather look skirts that are vegan friendly (also friendly to non vegan's). So you may recall me being featured at style clone, in a leather skirt I tried on in Topshop you can now get this skirt in black if you were after it. I recently got a PU leather look dress which I am going to layer to look like a skirt, as I have not found my perfect leather skirt (my waist goes in and my bum sticks right out) so still hunting one down. So anyway here is some inspiration for the look. I did have a look for plus size leather skirts, but it seems no one does them (which is pants)as I think this look is amazing on a full figure, pencil skirt and kitten heels me thinks so for all the plus size beauty's head to EBay as they have some.

Would you ever try this look?

So here is just a little something I put together, but I think everyone wears this look differently. I think some times this can be a hard look to get right, even above some looks are better than others. I think leather can have may looks and it depends on the cut ...like 60s mod, or 80s power chic, to 90s grunge. So if you do try it you have so many ways to wear it, dress it down with a tee and trainers or glam it up with a blouse and heels. The no no with leather skirts is going to OTT, when you look like least fashion more hooker. Double leather should not be attempted unless you are uber stylish and can make a sack look good. This look is sexy without it becoming tarty ... so leave your feathered boa at home.
