When it's chilly out, but I still want to wear a dress and no tights, a long skirt is my go-to fashion choice. I purchased this Calvin Klein skirt a few months ago for less than $10 and it's safe to say I'm in love with her. I first wore the skirt during Fashion Week. Back then I paired it with a vintage crop top, but this time around I wanted a more conservative look for church. But of course I had to throw in a sporty jacket to mix it up.

Leather is probably one of the most fun trends for fall. Traditionally, it's a difficult fabric to wear in professional settings. But this season, leather and leather trim have been added to a number of office appropriate pieces. Of course it's still important to follow a few key rules when wearing leather to work: nothing too short, too tight and avoid a head-to-toe look.

In this week's Cubicle Chic, here are three different ways to style leather for the office. We promise you won't channel a dominatrix!
