Tips For Styling Leather With Leather

I am a lover of leather, especially in black.  Sometimes it feels like half my wardrobe is filled with the stuff.  I usually stick to just one key piece - leather trousers with a cashmere knit or a leather dress with suede ankle boots.  Recently I have enjoyed styling a few pieces at once and I think I've almost nailed the formula.  

I purchased this Dolce and Gabbana cropped biker jacket a few seasons ago and adore it (especially its silk, leopard print lining).  However when I stocked up on Autumn's leather over-the-knee boots I wasn't sure how versatile they would be.  As it turns out they go with pretty much everything.  Even more leather.

Springs new must-have skirt is pleated and midi length.  There are one hundred and one colour options out on the High St at the moment but if in doubt stick to a darker shade.  The soft pleats are the perfect outfit softener and make it ideal for styling with harder looking leather items.
