Layer up with leather, 3 Autumnal looks.

Autumn is here!


Season Fix Style Edit.
Three style ideas for your leather shorts.

  So, as always get out your layered knits and start to polish those boots because we will sure be needing them.

Autumn is around the corner (if you live in England, it's already starting to feel like autumn with the dreary rain and cloudy days...) but don't fret, because with a new season comes a new wardrobe! (or at least in my imaginary wardrobe...).

For me, autumn is all about the natural colours that go along with the changing season, burgundy's and reds, oranges, dark greens, mustards and navy's. So, along those lines and inspired by my personal and slightly naughty spend up on shopping the other day... I've created three layered transitional outfits styled around leather shorts, also including similar alternative items of clothing and accessories to that featured and some change up extras to bring your outfit full circle, day to night, warm to chilly and casual to smart.

1. Dark elegance and minimalist texture. 
This outfit focuses on minimalism with the layering of texture and materials speaking for itself with only a subtle slip of colour. Leather shorts layered on top of either lycra or knitted tights. The simple yet beautifully cut delicate lace detail crop, fluffy and fun pom hair accessory and a suede leather rust coloured bag adding an overall autumnal feel.

 2. 70's and orange.
The 70's are on trend and orange is in so, with autumn on the doorstep this trend is totally welcomed. This outfit looks at incorporating the on trend staples and the classic autumnal orange with a chic city vibe pairing the perfect orange lip with a modern funky hair pom and a pair of step out in style mid heels.

3.  Suede persuasion.
Its time to think suede with this outfit, layering up the leathers and tying it all together with stand out gorgeous emerald shade accessories. (...which is bound to stun!) Accompanied with statement, flash back to the 60's, ankle booties and a black nail polish that radiates sass and romantic class.

    Similar items and occasion variations:  

Here, I've listed a few variations for different occasions and similar items to suit personal style and body shape. With occasions ranging from winter knit tights and light knit layers to a suedette skirt and platform boots for smarter occasions and finally a durable yet super fun floral print backpack just in time for the back to school season.
