Leather Jacket Weather

Could it be? Is it actually leather jacket weather? Leather jackets are kind of funny things. The weather has to be JUST RIGHT for me to wear my leather jacket out. I'm talking an early fall or spring day. It also can't have any precipitation or even a chance of rain for fear of ruining the leather. D and I have a running joke that we can never wear of leather jackets because the outdoor elements need to be just so. This weekend was one of those glorious moments for us where we both rocked out our leather with pride and style. Granted I was a little chilly (it maybe hit 50 degrees on Saturday) but to us Northerners, those temperatures after this winter might as well be summer right? This look below is very similar to the outfit I wore this weekend.

Anyone else feel really particular about  leather jacket weather?

or am I the only weirdo out there?

Either way -- keep it coming.....bring on the spring!!

Cold Weather Essentials: Leather jacket, fur and booties

This is another one of my favorite #tbt outfits that I wear ALL.THE.TIME. Fall weather is the perfect weather for wearing a leather jacket (which goes with pretty much anything by the way -- so invest in a nice one you can wear for years) and little accessories like fur and booties are also classics that complement nearly any outfit. These pieces are in constant rotation in my wardrobe, and I just change up the sweater/top and accessories to give them fresh looks. Like here, I added a little swipe of red lipstick for some extra sassiness ; ) Plus the holidays are coming up so OMGredeverything. Even Starbucks has their red holiday cups out already! Gingerbread latte anyone?

Hope you all have a happy (and thirsty) Thursday!

polka dot tops, boots and some fur...

This was one of my favorite outfit last year (#tbt) and right around now the weather is getting crisp enough to get away wearing only a leather jacket and be comfortable. Awesome! Throw on some boots and a little faux fur and you've got yourself a chic autumn outfit.

Leather jacket: Gift  (nice option) // Polka dot sweater: Old Navy last year (cute option) 

Faux Fur scarf: J.Crew factory (similar) // Black mini skirt: Target (nice option) // Leggings: Gap // Boots: Steve Madden (similar)

Also I'm a big fan of wearing black and brown together (always have) yet some people think this is a fashion faux pas?

What are you thoughts on wearing black and brown together?

Happy almost Friday!!
