A Girly-Girl's Guide to Leather

So, I'm pretty much obsessed with leather. However, I'm not really edgy enough to pull off a rockstar chic type of look, so I always end up sweetening it up with a bold color or a fun print. I love the idea of this pleather mini with a flirty silhouette paired with this sweet floral blouse. It gives my ultra feminine look a much needed hint of edge. Even the biggest girly-girls can rock leather.

I have a similar skirt but with more pleats. I love this outfit. The touch of rocker neutralized by the femininity of the flowered shirt.

You are so right. The fit and style of this leather skirt still retain a totally girly style. I like it. It's tough and sweet at the same time.

I get you! I also like mixing leather with soft or colorful prints. Besides the fact that I'm not bold enough, I think it's so much prettier <3

Great balance of soft + edgy in the outfit - I usually pull out my leather jacket when I want a more severe look - but maybe next time I'll pair it with some chiffon and see where that combo takes my mood...

Congrats on the LALM!
