Leather Unlimited

Fall 2012 is all about adding texture and layers to your wardrobe.  Gone are the days when leather was limited to bags, belts, shoes and jackets.  Add one of these pieces to your fall shopping list!

Leather Trend #1:  Leather dresses

• DO try a variety of colors.  Black is timeless, but new colors add spice
• DO wear with jewel tone tights or patterned tights
• DO NOT wear head-to-toe leather!  Too much of a good thing is possible.

Leather Trend #2:  Leather leggings 

• DO try a variety of colors or even metallics
• DO wear with a long sweater or layer with a cozy cardigan
• DO make sure they fit.  Avoid the sausage stuffed into a casing that's too small look!
