Styling: Luxe Leather
Leather has long been a symbol of sophistication and timeless style. Whether you prefer the authenticity of real leather or the versatility of faux leather, both materials offer unique opportunities to elevate your fashion game. It’s actually one of my favorite materials. There has been times I have joked about having too much of it. My closet has everything from leather shorts to leather dresses and, of course, leather jackets. Leather just feels cool, a little edgy, and even a little sexy at times. It’s a trend that has been popular for a minute with no signs of slowing down.
When it comes to leather, there are two avenues: real and faux. I am team faux leather not only for the price point but I’m just not a fan of animal materials. Plus, these days so many things made of faux leather don’t feel cheap or of poor quality so they are still a solid choice. Real leather exudes a luxurious charm that only improves with age. On the other hand, faux leather provides a cruelty-free alternative without compromising style.
Regardless of your choice, caring for leather is crucial. It will keep your clothing in tip-top shape for much longer which is essential with trends like this one that cycle back or stick around for a long time. Keep real leather moisturized with specialized leather conditioners, while faux leather can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Both materials deserve a spot in your wardrobe, offering endless possibilities to express your style with a touch of sophistication. Since it’s one material I love, it was only natural to do a Styling post on it so keep scrolling for a bunch of inspiration, a few chic ways to wear it, and a few leather items that have caught my eye to help you get the look.
