Season Stand Outs
So one of this season’s coveted looks is all things leather … it is a sleek, chic and most definitely a city vibe. But … how many of us love the look of leather (from jackets, to trousers, to skirts etc), but either don’t feel like confident that they can pull off the look or have ethical reasons for not wearing it? Well, here’s some ways to work around our concerns. First, (and you know this by now) there is faux everything.
