StyleFab: Keep your Boots High Like Your Standards!

WHY WE LOVE IT

It’ officially Fall and almost Winter so you may already have a slew of boots in your wardrobe to choose from but a must have this season is the over-the-knee.

That’s right you have seen some of your favorite celebrities rocking this look flawlessly!

HOW TO WEAR IT

When most people think of thigh high boots they think Julia Roberts strutting her stuff down Hollywood Boulevard in my favorite movie Pretty Woman🙂 But thigh-high boots don’t have to scream prostitue. On the contrary, the right styling can leave you looking chic, sophisticated, and practical. They’re truly a closet gem as they can polish off a broad range of looks from mini to midi skirts, cuffed shorts, or skinny jeans.

Try pairing them with a short skirt or a dress to reveal a sexy sliver of skin and achieve a softer look than you would get when wearing stockings. If you decide to bare some leg, try to limit it to about three inches of thigh between your boot and bottoms.

They also jazz up an otherwise ordinary outfit, like your go-to jeans and a simple blouse. Just add a statement necklace or clutch and you’ve got a great outfit that you can wear from day to night.

To further ensure classiness and elegance, try to steer clear of too-shiny, faux leather resembling plastic, sky-high platforms, and, of course, anything uncomfortable.

StyleFab: Watch This Leather Skirt Transform Your Wardrobe

WHY WE LOVE IT

A leather skirt is always down to solve a fashion dilemma. Its inherent trend feature is its style versatility: from grunge, to glam, to girly, to preppy, to smart, to sporty luxe or rock glam, you can’t lose rocking this item. Whether you style it with a solid tee in the Summer or slip it on over tights in the Fall, there are plenty of ways to rock this must-have piece. Leather Skirts have been having their moment for a while now, with bloggers and fashionistats wearing them like crazy in summer, but the trend is now spreading into the colder seasons big time. And the best part about it is that ALL leather skirts are in: skater, pencil, mini, A-line, in all colors. Today we will discuss the must have black leather skirt.

HOW TO WEAR IT

Try the black leather skirt with these casual looks:

If however we want to go more on the glam sophisticated side, it’s all in the bling (statement necklaces & rings) and textures. Mix fabrics: leather, lace, sheer, silk, cashmere, beads, sequins. Keep one thing in mind though, when going all the way, you need to keep at least one thing toned down: face, hair or shoes.

The biggest DON’T when it comes to leather skirts is those super short, painted-on latex styles, that’ll have us looking cheap & desperate. Also avoid pairing them with a same-texture tiny leather jacket and thigh high heeled black leather boots. We don’t want you to come across like a prostitute lol. It’s about BALANCE and making you look effortless, girly and confident.
