I’ve never been into leather besides my shoes, jackets and bags, but it’s hard for me to resist all the leather skirts I’ve seen around this fall. I usually stick to brown leather because I think black leather makes me look too cheesy, but below are my picks for best leather skirts, in all colors.
1.) Gray leather pencil skirt, Bebe: This sleek leather skirt is actually very modest for Bebe, and the gray is an unexpected but still neutral shade that really works. $169.
2.) Geren Ford Snap Placket Leather Skirt: Geren Ford has convinced me that wearing a black leather mini skirt doesn’t mean you have to look trashy. Its cute bubble shape and haphazard snaps are youthful and fun, when worn with the right shoes. $474.
3.) Washed calfskin leather skirt, J.Crew: The idea of calfskin always makes me cringe, and this skirt is too expensive for me anyway. But it’s beautiful, comes in a flattering shade of tan and can be dressed up for work or cocktail parties. $595.
4.) Diane von Furstenberg Adame Leather Skirt: This beautiful contrasting leather pencil skirt above is exactly why I’m loving leather skirts in the first place: it looks warm but isn’t bulky or cheesy. It’s ladylike and raw at the same time, and I wish it was mine. $255 (on sale).
UPDATE: BEST FALL SKIRTS OF 2009!
