Dress It Down
I love this skirt but I’ve realised that it looks much better dressed down than up. If I wear it with heels and a fancy top I look like a Tim Burton nightmare. It always looks better with a simple tee and ballet flats.
Let It Shine
I try not to wear too much other leather when wearing this skirt, simply because it’s such a big piece. By all means carry your leather boho bag but best leave the leather jacket at home.
Lighten It Up
As much as I adore black, if I wear a solid black top with this skirt I look like an airport runway. Lighten up large blocks of dark leather with crisp white or cream.
This outfit was worn for a day of writing and a belated birthday lunch with my man.

This one is so comfy! It has a little elastic panel in the waist so I just pull it on!
