Highlight your style in leather and suede!

If you are getting ready to recondition your closet this fall, take a closer look at suede and leather. They can be both catalogued as some of the trendiest materials seen this year, and as foreseen, they’re making a grand entrance this season.

It was only a matter of time until these two made a real comeback. Their real value lies in the luxury that comes with them, which adds instant richness to any silhouette to which they’re applied. Even faux suede has that sumptuous appeal; it brings an overall allure that talks about old-school quality.

The fashion crowd has gone crazy wearing it, and so can you! You will easily spot the trendiest brands and other very affordable ones carrying fall essentials such as regular leather and suede pants, mini skirts, mini dresses and even shorts.

Get carried away as autumn will also allow you to taste these amazingly versatile materials in pieces such as jackets, coats, mid-length, and maxi skirts. The trend brings back a bit of safari vibes, 70`s retro groove, and even linear 60’s and 90’silhuettes back.

What should be highlighted is the wearability of all leather pieces. No matter how you decide to wear them, if you choose basic items, or go for accessories such as bags, belts, or shoes, in enhanced leather options such as faux crocodile, ostrich, python leather, or suede, they will all instant effortless luxury and class.

The transitioning Vegas weather is perfect to explore that and identify what would look best on you. It is the perfect opportunity to make a point by wearing leather and suede in everyday pieces. Maybe you want to go totally bohemian and wear the trending fringe on a suede jacket, crossbody bag, or skirt. Or go a little more formal, and just wear a light leather trench coat over a see-through blouse and skinny pants.

Pair a midi leather skirt with a silk blouse and heels and be ready for the office. Wear a suede short or suede mini skirt with a cotton top or cardigan. Complete the look by adding low heel shoes or flats and be ready for school or casual date.

To get the most out of easily mixing and matching leather and suede, remember to pair them with pieces in lighter fabrics such as regular cotton, linen, organza or silk. Light textures such as these, will keep the volume of the overall look harmonious.

If you plan on embracing them but don’t want to go deep into the trending 70’s look, stay away from brown, camel tones and fringe, and go for more classic color palette such as that of burgundies, navies and military green tones that add to a sharp look. For a more adventurous approach, feel free to try leather and specially suede in outspoken colors such as yellow, pink, red, or purple.

Leather and suede aren’t leaving anytime soon. Matching them to contrast with other fabrics that go from cotton to even wool are a real highlight. They can spark the simplest basic to look fashionably impressive and expensive. Thus, they are the real piece to look for in trendy Vegas right now.
