Leather and Lace

Jacket: c/o Sugarlips, Skirt: Kohls, Shoes: Target, Bracelet: Kohls (old)

Spaghetti and meatballs.  Milk and cookies.  Peanut butter and jelly.  Leather and lace?  Yup, I think it's the perfect combination of differing textures and I'm loving this look for Fall!  I had been looking for a modest leather skirt for a while, so when I found this little beauty on sale at Kohls, I knew it was meant to be.  

There are so many ways to wear a leather pencil skirt...I'm going to try to put together a few different outfits to show the various options.  Today I wanted to pair it with lace, so I wore it with the adorable "Clemence, You Doll Jacket" from Sugarlips Apparel. I can't wait to create another outfit with the skirt...I already have it planned out!


I also have to throw in this picture, because I look so happy...It makes me smile just looking at it!

Do you have any leather in your wardrobe?

  6. Super cute! And yes, leather and lace goes together like pb&jelly :) I love that the feminine lace balances the edgy leather. Balance is everything! And I own some leather leggings that I loooooove! I will definitely be pairing them with lace!

    1. Thanks Katie! I have been contemplating the leather leggings, but I just can't decide...is it weird for a mom of two kids to be wearing those?

  8. Oh my goodness...normally I wouldn't think of leather and classy in the same statement, but you've proven me wrong! I absolutely LOVE everything about this outfit...truly! The only leather I own now are boots and belts haha, but now I'm wondering if I shouldn't try to find a leather skirt...awesome:)

  11. I love the leather and lace look! I don't have any yet...but my sister just found a full length leather skirt at Salvation Army and bought it...and told me she might give it to me since it's a tad too short on her. So I've got my fingers crossed!

    1. No, I said I didn't like the pleated leather skirt! But you said you can't wear pencil skirts. And I probably said that I didn't think leather would look good on me or something. Or maybe I did say I didn't like it...who knows? Haha...I can't be trusted :)
