Leather pieces are something that will never go out of style, and they can easily be paired with anything to add an edgy vibe to every outfit. My goal for this look was to put several classic pieces together to create a unique look. This faux black leather moto jacket is one of my favorite go-to staple pieces. A leather jacket is a great layering piece, and it can take any outfit from drab to fab instantly. Especially on days when the weather fluctuates, I love draping the jacket over my shoulders when it gets warmer. The black and white plaid skirt offsets the hardness of the leather jacket, while the red turtleneck provides a pop of color and softness to this look. I love how the classic turtleneck has been trending recently, and it is definitely a cozy and chic look for the winter season.Â
My style in the colder months usually tends to consist of neutral colors and monochrome outfits, so I like to challenge myself by adding pops of color. I love mixing textures when creating outfits, and this look perfectly balances the hard and the soft. The turtleneck and skirt combo brings the femininity to this outfit for an edgy chic look. The structured black leather bag also adds to the overall aesthetic of this outfit, and my long silver tassel necklace matches the hardware on my leather jacket for a polished look that ties the outfit together. I finished off this look with black leather booties that are both comfortable and stylish—perfect for long walks on campus and in the city! I encourage all of you Fashionistas/os to go outside of your comfort zone and experiment with new looks!Â
