Forever Leather

Leather isn’t just for rock stars or bikers anymore. Think again, it’s been a while since we are all able to adopt this edgy sexy look, but usually many of us tend to use our favorite leather pieces during winter time only. Big Mistake: leather is one of the most versatile textures you can wear 365 days a year. So, I’ve got great news: This season Leather gets updated with new cuts and bright colors. We're already seeing new styles trickling in on the streets.
Because leather is so glossy and smooth, it makes a statement by itself no matter how you wear it. That's why it's important to look for leather clothing that you will feel comfortable wearing. Let’s pay attention to these useful tips:
- Leather is clingy and form-fitting by nature, which sometimes makes it difficult for curvier women to wear it.
- Avoid leather leggings and pants if you have thicker legs and stay away from bustiers and tight leather dresses if you have a round stomach.
- Leather jackets are flattering on almost everyone because there are so many different styles, but avoid cropped cuts if you are thick waisted, because this style will draw attention to your stomach.
- If you don’t want to look like Catwoman (I hope!), you can wear contrasting fabrics with your leather leggings or pants. Wearing all black can be slimming and sophisticated, but try adding other colors to your leather ensemble. Slip on white pants or skirts to complement a leather vest or wear blue jeans, a T-shirt and sneakers with a leather jacket for a laid-back look. 
- If you're still too afraid to wear a leather statement piece, you can always wear leather boots with your jeans. Leather cuffs and headbands also allow you to incorporate the trendy fabric into your wardrobe, and leather gloves work wonderfully as driving gloves.
