Full-look leather trend

If you find the perfect shape, [leather pieces] are timeless and can be worn season after season. Leather is an investment purchase that has enduring appeal, and with wear, becomes a second skin.

We all love the ’90s revival, and this leather trend edgy minimalism of the era. So investing in a leather trench, jacket, trousers or skirt will prove to be a solid investment over the coming year (if not years, as leather is a boomerang trend that comes back time and again). 

I’m a firm believer that if you add leather items to your outfit, it’ll instantly elevate your look to become effortlessly polished. It’s all about finding those key items that look expensive, though, and I believe the high street never fails when it comes to these five leather items: outerwear, trousers, shirts, skirts and dresses. 

While real leather will set you back more than faux and vegan iterations, that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice quality. Over the years, these variations have become so good, some have even fooled me into believing they’re the real deal.
