The leather pencil skirt

I thrifted this leather pencil skirt months ago; for the quality, it was an absolute steal. Soft, supple leather, no visible signs of wear, and remarkably comfortable to wear and sit in for hours at work.

Yet, this is only the second time I've worn it, and I'm pretty sure my leather skirt wearing days are dwindling as the humidity level steadily rises. I'll just have to resolve to wear it more this fall, however I'm loving it mixed with the lighter neutrals and brights, it feels perfectly 'spring'.

  2. Only you could manage to make a leather skirt look spring-y. I just loooove it with that bright neon clutch and jean jacket! And I'm proud to say that I've recently obtained a gold spikey bracelet just like yours.

  5. Great thrifted find! The skirt is perfect for you, now that leather is a big trend for spring and summer I think you can come up with tons of looks with it, and since color is your thing bet you'll rock it!

  25. I love that your top has sequins. You look amazing. I have been wanting a leather skirt myself for like 2 years and haven't managed to pick one up yet. I will have to search harder this Fall.

  32. As much as I love leather - and I really, really do - I find that when it comes in certain forms, like skirts, it can be tough to get enough wear out of leather pieces because it's just so warm. I'm glad you got to wear this beauty one more time before summer starts, it works so well with your leather jacket and those heels, which, by the way, are incredible. Seriously. I think I might be in love :)
    xox,

  33. It's great that you were able to get another wear out of it before the warmth. I love leather, it looks nice with the neon and grey nail varnish. Enjoy your weekend. :)
