Leather Skirt

There's an ancient saying that says "Success comes to those who patiently shop every brick-and-mortar, online, and secondhand store on earth (or southwest Missouri) to find the perfect faux leather skirt."

Exhibit A:

   

BCBGeneration: $398.00

Exhibit C(AAP) [Cheaper and also PERFECT] :

Nordstrom: $38.00

For those of us who want to get in on the leather trend this fall, choose something like this with classic (and classy) shape and length. You want your look to say "chic" and "luxurious", not "sketchy-goth-motorcycle chick with a tattoo on my butt, which coincidentally, you can see because this skirt is more of an over-pleated, wide belt than a piece of clothing."

After much deliberation, or a quick glance at my remaining clothing budget this month, I decided on the skirt from Nordstrom. Added bonus: free shipping and returns. Totally worth it! It should be arriving this week, upon which I plan to introduce it to my other new friends: purple tights and black booties. Pics to follow!
