But in everyone else's heads they see...
sourceOh dear.
Anyway in the hunt for the perfect skirt, I do what I do best, I went on eBay. I came across the shop "Charming Magpes" who are also accessable as a Vintage shop in Winchester (near me! YAY!) and bought a vintage 80s leather skirt. However I thought, how do I wear it without looking slutty? I came up with some simple rules:
1. Wear it with something oversized if it's a tight leather skirt
2. Mix up the textures with chunky knitwear
3. Don't be scared to mix sheer and leather
No I don't mean sheer, see your bra and look slutty sheer, but something floaty. I love the contrast.
What do you think of leather skirts? I can't wait to wear it tucked in to something as it's high waisted! I wore the final outfit last night to the pub quiz!! Sadly it didn't help us win though!
I love what the Olson tiwn (I am not sure which one it is, lol) is wearing, looks funky and relaxed. I have a tan leather skirt that is just above the need, which I have worn only once; here http://www.urban-butterfly.com/2011/08/dinner-date.html
ReplyDeleteI would like to wear it to work to get more wear out of it but worried about 'The Look' Love how you wore it last night, it really suits you. x
Whilst Mila Kunis looks lovely in her leather skirt I much prefer your sheer(ish) top and leather skirt!
ReplyDeleteI have a suede and leather skirt which I love but never knew how to wear it until i tucked a band tee into it and funked it up with accessories.
What a great post <3
I really like the 1st style above, its the one I would go for. Which one did you opt for when you said you wore it to the pub? I wasnt sure what you went for in the end?
ReplyDeleteYou look so lovely in these photos. I can never pull out a leather miniskirt like that
ReplyDeletelove your style! you look stunning!
