Trend Alert: Leather Jacket

One of the downside of living in a tropical country is that we miss out wearing a lot of clothing suitable for colder weather! I was never please to see a lot of amazing collections from designers for fall/winter. Gee, which person in their right mind wear boots or leather jacket in sunny Malaysia? But hey, why not? We’ve seen so many celebrities looking so good in leather jacket and we shouldn’t let the weather (or other’s opinion) stop us from dressing up the way we want to.
Where to wear a leather jacket?
1. Clubs and bars. Since everyone is usually dressy there, you’ll fit right in!
2. Malls and Cinemas I dont’ know about you but I always find the air-conditioning in cinemas and malls are too strong. Instead of covering yourself with a shawl or snuggle to your boyfriend, why not wear a leather jacket instead?
3. Dress up/fashion parties. Need I say more?
How to wear it?
1. Wear the jacket with dark skinny jeans, oversized tank top, sky high heels, huge bag and lots of accessories. If you really want to pull off the bad-girl look ala Georgiona Sparks in Gossipgirls, put on dark nail polish and do the smoky eyes.
2. Don’t fancy the punk-rock style? Tone it down with a mini dress and a pump. If Alexa Chung’s style is too ‘dark’ for you. Replace the little black dress with neutral colour mini dress and a coloured peep-toe.
3. Or go effortless like Kate Moss with a glossy legging, a white tank top and a cute clutch.
