Is it too soon for another post involving leather? I guess this would be a good time to admit that I have an obsession with leather (faux-leather, that is), and you may see me wearing it a lot now that cooler temps are here to stay.

One of my favorite things about leather is that it allows me to create a look that is chic and sexy with almost anything in my preexisting wardrobe. I absolutely love pairing leather bottoms with feminine blouses - particularly those blouses which include girlie accents (i.e., floral prints, ruffles, pale pink hues, etc.). The contrast between these two very different styles makes for an interesting, yet beautiful aesthetic, and is the perfect look for a night out with my girlfriends or hubby.

If you haven't found the perfect pair of leather leggings/pants yet, I highly recommend trying the Scuba Legging from Express. I love these because they are made out of a leather-like material and have the luster of curve-hugging scuba gear (believe it or not). While getting them on for the first time can be a bit challenging (LOL), they are incredibly comfortable and really do fit great. OMG, and I almost forgot - they can be machine washed!

Thank y'all so much for stopping by. May your day be as beautiful as you are!
