Falling for Fall...

Luxurious Leather
The leaves are changing colors, and the temperature's dropping. This butter soft lambskin leather skirt is by Halogen. It has an A-line cut with inset side pockets, and a banded hem. The skirt isn't technically a mini, given it falls a few inches lower than a traditional mini skirt would. It's rich camel color is listed as one of the hot colors for fall/winter 2014. I guess I was ahead of the trend, when I purchased it from Nordstrom last fall, for about $129. I coupled the skirt with a poly blend wrap blouse from Forever 21. It has bell shaped long sleeves, which gives it a boho feel. The camel, navy, rust, browns, and pumpkin colors in the blouse compliments the solid skirt.

Accessory Tip: Keep it simple. Don't over do it with the jewelry. I think a pair of over sized gold hoops and a few gold bangles are enough. No need for a belt, noting the contrasting sash tie at the waist of the skirt.

Shoe Tip: A pair of brown or camel colored suede or leather shoe booties, or a pair of tall boots with a flat heel would definitely set this outfit off. Flat boots will help to maintain the sophistication of the outfit. I wouldn't necessarily recommend wearing tall boots with a high heel, due to the length of the skirt. Unless of course you're looking to give it a more urban vibe.
