Liven Up your Wardrobe with {Faux} Leather

As the days of November steadily fly by, I continue to get creative with textures. Fall is my favorite time of the year. Yes I happen to love apple cider, plaid and the cute sweater beer koozies I pull out for football games, but I also love accessorizing with layers!

Since the weather in San Francisco is pretty mild, it’s necessary to occasionally take a step back from the typical textures of chunky sweaters and fur, and focus on the lighter layers. One of my go-to textures that adds glamour and the feel of fall is leather. It’s great for when the weather is too warm to bundle up, but you’re craving texture.

I love dressing my leather pieces down by pairing them with plaid or plain v-necks. Check out the fun leather products I pulled together below. These are great pieces to pull out for the holidays or even just a night out. Share your favorite in the comments below and click to shop!

BTS- Back To Skorts

Skorts used to be one of my go-to looks when I was young- they were a staple for any young girl in the 90’s. Skorts pleased your parent by looking like a skirt, but you still able to keep up with the boys without flashing your princess panties. To put it simply, they are the clothing version of a mullet- business in the front, party in the back!

But, skorts are no longer just for the 90’s and tennis matches, they are coming back! If you haven’t noticed, skorts are everywhere this summer and I don’t see them going anywhere for fall. There are tons of ways to wear them and I’m sharing a few of my favorites below!
