I love me some leather- whatever your pleasure (faux or real), fall’s latest trend has me so excited and adding items to my Fall Wishlist immediately…. I have lusted after Sequins, shared the love for Animal Print, but today, we talk LEATHER.
Finding designers and retailers who fashion leather BEYOND the leather jacket has been a task, BUT there are quite a few options! Even some of my favorite tweeps (@_franceta) snatched up pieces that had me salivating and tempted to make my purchases immediately!
