I’ve been pulling out my peacoat more and more with the temps dropping around these parts! It’s finally getting chilly enough during the day to also sport my favorite pair of leather pants – and let’s face it, leather in general is my favorite. Since sales will be picking up again right before Christmas for those last minute gifts, I thought I’d share a few leather pieces that would make perfect presents that you can save for those markdowns coming up! What makes leather items a great gift? 1) leather isn’t cheap, so she’s not always likely to buy it for herself, and 2) it’s a wardrobe staple – she’ll have it and love it forever!
If she’s been on the hunt for a classic leather jacket, this one by Vince is a fabulous choice – the oversized shawl collar adds a feminine touch. If spring is on her mind and you need a lighter option, try this draped Helmut Lang jacket (on sale!!). For the trendsetter, gift this long leather Vince vest – so chic! Leather pants are another great gift to give – a little luxury never hurt nobody! I love this quilted pair by Thakoon Addition and this basic pair by J BRAND. I also wouldn’t mind if I found this baby blue jacket under my tree this year… If she’s into leather, but you don’t want to spend as much, try some leather-paneled options or faux leather items! For pants, a couple gorgeous options include these faux leather AG track pants and these Haute Hippie paneled leggings. For jackets, pick up this amazing steal by BB Dakota or this leather-sleeved blazer! This pewter blazer is only $58, but looks like $1k – I’ll take it.

You and me both girl! I feel like I have been wearing my faux leather pieces non-stop lately. It seems to easily add the perfect amount of edge. Love the tan and black combo.
