OOTD from Marie France Asia: Leather on Leather
updated the 14 July 2015 à 18:35If leather and black have always been your weakness, here’s how to get past the summer heat to rock an all black leather look!
Black? Leather? In this blistering heat? Nope, we’ve not lost our sanity yet. In fact, we’re here with answers on how to nail a full leather on leather look successfully without suffering from a heatstroke and still looking on point. Whatever the season, there’s really no excuse for leather to shy away from your wardrobe.
Strappy bralettes work best in summers for its minimal coverage to survive the scorching sun, yet just enough to preserve one’s modesty. Pair it with culottes to accurately embody the nonchalant and carefree summer spirit, and throw on a leather jacket for the added edge. As the most chic way to don a jacket, is to not, you merely have to perch it over your shoulders to complete the look, while allowing you to survive the heat in the most fashionable way possible.
As for the shoes and makeup, opt for a pair of leopard print pumps and go for a bright bold red lipstick because these might just be the only few things that can match up to the attitude of an all-leather ensemble.
About time those leather pieces in your closet come out from hiding, don’t you think?
