Fall Trend: Lots Of Leather

{ Via: Chloe }

Each season brings a new style focus. This year "leather" is trending bigger than it ever did before. What's interesting is that it also is more affordable than in the past. Many designers have gone faux in fabulous ways. No one does it better that Stella McCartney, but her vegan styles are still expensive. This edit features the season's best leather looks - real and faux- with prices for every budget.

Cruise Leather Wide Leg Pant

Soft lambskin leather helps to create a mastery of modern proportions. Love the drape of these.

Banana Republic

Laser Cut Faux Leather Trousers

These scream "date night." I am not a lover of the color brown, but when it comes to leather, it is a luxe look. Pair it with black and it becomes instantly sophisticated. Loving the lace like details at the ankle.

Anthropologie

Jagger Jumpsuit

This jumpsuit has moves. The perfect going out super stretchy jumpsuit. It's faux but really well done. For sizes 0 - 14

Sachin & Babi

Costarellos Sonia Pant

Oh how I love this outfit! The metallic finish on the Nappa leather is super striking.

Moda Operandi

Natori Vegan Luxe Pants & Top

These two pieces are said to feel as luxe and soft as they look.  Loving the comfy chic vibe of each piece. Very modern yet not too trendy.

Proenza Schouler Faux Leather Midi

The shimmering shade of red catches your attention.  The pretty pleats are the style details that make it special.

Leather Bermuda Short

Banana is certainly leveling up their style file this season. This look is soooo good. The shorts can easily be worn as shown, or taken down a notch with sneakers and a sweater. 

Banana Republic

Rock Music Vegan Leather Leggings
No need to make an investment in leather leggings when faux leather leggings give you the same casual look. I have a pair at a considerably higher price than $50, but I love them. Very comfy and shiny.

Lulu's

Lauren Leather Jacket

I love this look. Dress up denim or pair it with off white wide leg pants and heels for an evening look.

Ralph Lauren

Stella McCartney Cape Midi 

Designed in the best shade of "aubergine," in Stella's vegan leather, a wonderful alternative to any animal product. From the billowing sleeves to the pretty pleats, this dress may just be the best of the year.

Stella McCartney

L'AGENCE

Billie Belted Leather Jacket

Isn't this fun! The dreamy green leather and turquoise lining is just so chic and cheerful. It's sold out at Saks but you can find it at...

Neiman Marcus. or  L'Agence

Better Than Leather Quilted Bomber

 Two trends in one. The Bomber Jacket is back. Add a leather like fabrication and it becomes something very new for the season. 

Love it!
