Tips for styling your leather jacket

Since we're on the topic of leather jackets today, I figured I'd share some style tips. I created a guide below, with a few everyday pieces that pair well with leather jackets. You probably have most of these in your closet already! 

THE LAYERING BASICS
It doesn't matter what color, style, or fabric, you select, these are just simple pieces you can easily find, dress up or down, and layer. #1 T-shirt (crew or V-neck) #2 Chambray or White Button Down, #3 Stripped Shirt (of any kind) #4 turtlenecks, #5 sweaters 


WHAT SHOES ARE YOU WEARING?
When wearing a leather jacket, your shoe selection is infinite. You can wear, sneakers, pumps, ankle boots, knee boots, flats, sandals, ANYTHING. For a casual look, I opt for the classic Converse Chuck Taylor Sneaker, and for a more polished look, I'll wear ankle boots and pumps. (You can also wear ankle boots for casual looks as well) Hope these tips helped! 

And remember, when you wear a leather jacket, the fashion world is your oyster! 

The only jacket that matters

  
                                                                    THE LEATHER JACKET

 The leather jacket, is probably one of the most iconic pieces in your closet.  Its been a staple of American fashion for generations, and it looks like it's going to stay that way. Leather jackets are versatile, classic, edgy, and perfect for layering. They come in various styles, leathers, and if you invest in the right one, it'll last you decades.  Sometimes, all you need is a good pair of jeans, a basic shirt, a buttery leather jacket, and you're good to go! 

So whether you already have a jacket, or you're thinking about investing in one, here's a list of a few retailers where you can find the perfect leather jacket for your style and price range: TopshopMadewellNordstromMango, and H&M

                           
Try pairing your jacket with a white button down, some distressed jeans, and sneakers! It's quick, easy, and pure Americana.

Effortless Fall



 
    Ti's the season for go to pieces, timeless coats, never ending layers, and of course, boots! The best thing about fall style, is that it's completely effortless. It doesn't take a lot to have a great outfit. Who doesn't love getting dressed in an oversized sweater, your best skinnies, over the knee boots, and a statement handbag?!
   
 Since we're on the topic of fall fashion.. lol, here's a recap of my fall ensemble from last weekend.  I went for an easy downtown look, the weather was kind of cloudy and cool, and I wanted to be comfortable in case it rained.

 I wore my fave leather moto jacket from Nordstrom, my green oversized flannel and high riser skinnies from Madewell, a faux fur wrap from Target,  my Tory Burch Amanda Ridding Boots, and Warby Parker Maynard frames. What's your go to look fall?
