    I don’t usually wear leather on summer but if I would have one of those pleated skirts for sure I would definitely change my mind!

    As we usually have very hot summers (unlike this summer which has brought us such crazy weather so far), I seldom wear leather in the heat. But I wear my leather jacket every time the weather allows me to, it’s a timeless piece. The front row right outfit is fabulous! can’t think of a more chic way of wearing a leather mini skirt. Hope you’re having a wonderful week, Shin! xoxo

    Ooh I’d love to see your leather shorts! I have some high-wasted shorts as well, in black and in denim, but for some reason leather is not really my thing… But I love to see how other people rock the leather look!
    And you might notice I have a different blog now, I have been neglecting my previous one (foreignfashion.blogspot.com) because I couldn’t post anything I want, the title of the blog was more about fashion while I wanted to post about daily things as well… So I’ve come up with ‘scents of summer’, hope you’ll like it!

    Love, Lisa

  47. These looks are wonderful but even though the ladies and the models didn’t look like they were sweaty under all that leather, I’m not sure how comfy I will be. Though if I were to try this style, I’d definitely go for the pleated skirt.

  48. Tammy says:

    I have never thought of wearing leather in the summer, until I read this post! I am in absolute love with the skirts – especially the first one pictured, I really love that shade.
    Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment!

    I love leather clothes and those pieces were amazing! I don’t have leather clothes much, just one skirt which is really short and can be used just for photo-shoots! I have to buy some leather pieces, but I haven’t find something special!
    OMG your summer will be full of busy days? Will you have any break or some days off? I love to see that even though it will take your summer, you love learning and are so optimistic about it!
    I love to travel the world 2! To see and learn other cultures and traditions!…Well, who knows, maybe one day we can travel together! πŸ˜€

    I am going to vegas in 2 days. I just got the BEST pair of cropped leather pants. I don’t plan on walking around vegas at night (80 degrees). We will probably spend the most time in the casino, temps not warm at all. I really want to wear them with a great pair of Christain Louboutin sandals and a summary Phillip Lim camisole. CAN I DO THIS?????????
