Leather skiers might not be a huge trend this fall, they are however a closet staple, an essential of some sorts. I scored this pencil leather skirt off of Loft a few years ago and love to restyle it over and over in the cold weather months. My favorite way of styling my leather skirt in the fall or winter is by pairing it with boots. When I want to tone down the edginess of the leather skirt, I throw in some faux faux in the form of a shawl, vest or bag. For this look here, I layered a turtle neck sweater into my leather pencil skirt, threw on my leather Altuzarra boots which actually adds to the edginess of the skirt and added my faux fur vest which toned everything down. When I got too warm, I rolled up my faux fur vest (which I purchased from Forever 21 years ago) into a ball and just carried it in my arms like a clutch. So, if you are styling your leather pieces for the holiday, mixing in warm and fuzzy accessories with it would make it holiday chic. Aside from faux fur shawl and scarfs, a good quality felt hat is a great idea too. I also like this Topshop teddy faux fur bucket bag here. Check out the other blog post I made of this outfit here.
