Really Love My … Leather Skirt

03/27/19 | Fashion and Style, J Crew, really love my ...

JCrew Leather Skirt in New York

In New York, New York 

Greetings from Germany!  I am here for work, as I have been nearly every week this year but there is one exciting tweak of today – it is my half birthday!  When I was little on your half birthday you got ice cream and that was usually my favorite Black Raspberry at a spot called Longford’s in my hometown but now I will try and find ice cream somewhere between Germany and London.   But now on to more important things – one of my favorite wardrobe stapes – my navy leather skirt!

Nearly two years ago I bought this  J.Crew Pleat Faux Leather Miniskirt at the Nordstrom Summer sale and it was one of my best purchases! The accordion pleats are so fun to twirl in and the faux-leather looks and feels just like the real thing – well worth the fact that it is dry clean only.   And this skirt has traveled quite a bit, take a look at some of the adventures it has been on:

This skirt is definitely one of my top go-tos and I can see it remaining this way for many years!   Do you have a wardrobe staple like this navy leather skirt?

    I have my favorite suede coat that goes everywhere with me but it is starting to show its age and I am really sad about that.

    I have worn it so much that it is really soft and feels like a big hug every-time I am wearing it. Any suggestions for a replacement? It is beige so goes with everything. So sad.
