    I am so crazy about leather skirts too… I wanted to buy one for so much, but I thought it was not super cool for the animals etc, but NOW I just want to BUY ONE once more!!!

    Leather skirts are one of my all time favourite items of clothing. I’m wearing a body con one from topshop in my latest post that I am in love with. The Alice+Olivia one is AMAZING and I also like the quirkiness of the House of Holland one. great post!

    Hello, Shin! I love leather skirts! Leave a more stylish look!
    I loved the pictures for inspiration! One more interesting than the other.
    The cue image is perfect! The skirt is beautiful, the necklace of skulls is incredible. The entire composition is lovely.

    Nice outfit, I love all those skirts,
    yours must be so pretty.
    I have a pleated one from Zara I bought last summer and I love it, although it’s a bit difficult (for me) to wear
    hope you’re having a nice week

    ♥ Marley

  24. You totally made me want a leather skirt! Maybe i’ll find one in NY. Knit and leather looks great together, because of the contrast I think.

  25. Hi Shin! How are you? Yes I love leather skirts too, i feel like tulip leather skirts for the moment!
    Love that post!

    Have a nice week!

    You have 5 leather skirts?! Holy heck woman! I don’t own a single one! I really like leather skirts in non-traditional shapes. Like the a-line pleated version. I think if I were to get one, I’d go with something like this!

  35. brandi says:

  37. Your sense of style always inspires me! Your descriptions of your leather skirts paired with shrunken knit sweaters sounds so amazing! I love that Alice + Olivia Pleated leather skirt, it’s perfect! I can’t believe I actually don’t own a leather skirt at all! But I really want one, and some real leather pants too! I hope you had an amazing weekend & your week is off to a great start, beautiful!

    What gorgeous skirts! I myself have not a single leather skirt, yet I remember when I was younger my mum had this fabulous brown leather skirt. She looks so glamorous in it!

    Leather skirts!! How cute. What a great look. I don’t think I can pull off a leather skirt but I want a pair of leather shorts sooo bad.

    My week is going well so far, thank you for asking. : ) How is yours? I have actually been in a drought for blog topics. argh it sucks. I am dying to see Water for Elephants. It’s definitely on my to do list!! : )

  50. Hi Shin, how are you? How was your Easter? Myself I couldn’t relax a bit, constantly something that needed to be done. If it wasn’t school, which I happen to have a lot of, it was cleaning the summer place (were we spent the break, or every break for that matter..) or it was working out, yes that happen to be on my to-do list :P! Anyways I love leather skirts, they are perfect. Puts a little edginess to the outfit. I prefer classic ones, though, such as the Michael Kors and the Alice + Olivia! Have a great Wednesday! xoxo

  51. Bonnie says:

    Leather skirts = S&M theme = I am so there

    A little hint of sluttiness in an outfit never hurt anybody.
