Leather is typically associated with fall and winter. It's the heavier material you wear when the temps are a bit frigid. But that's changing. We saw tons of leather on the runways of Charlotte Ronson, DKNY and in countless other spring 2013 collections. But exactly how do you wear this material without sweating your buns off? Actually, it's quite easy. And you don't have to pay a major price.
You can choose a pair of shorts, sheath dress or even a biker vest, but I love a great skirt for spring and summer. And last week I picked up a lightweight faux leather skater skirt from Strawberry for $13.
Check out three easy ways you can style a leather skirt this spring for any occasion, from weekend to work.
Last week I had a few minutes of down time so I did something I haven't done in about a year and a half. I went to Strawberry. If you don't know what Strawberry is or totally forgot they existed, Strawberry is an affordable retailer in the northeast that's comparable to Forever 21 and Wet Seal. The pieces are trendy and wallet friendly. And I used to always {and I do mean always!} shop there when I first moved to NYC.Fast forward a few years and the pieces are still trendy and the prices are affordable for the most part. Check out what I found, including the most adorable, ladylike skirt and how to know when to walk away from a cheap chic find.
