Leather makes a regular pencil skirt so much more interesting and ten times more fun to wear. They are great for work as well as a night out. Here, I’m wearing a fun work friendly look. A nice crew neck sweater is a perfect item to pair with a leather skirt. Key tips when buying leather or faux leather skirts are 1. Stick to a longer length if it's fitted. The skirt will look sophisticated instead of skanky. 2. Neutral dark colors look more expensive and they will automatically go with many other pieces in your closet. A blazer is also a nice addition to make the look more professional. I added fun accessories and colors through the statement neck, shoes, and clutch.
