Leather is better
When I saw this pleated leather skirt on Pinterest…
It went on the find it list. Ebay had a similar style skirt for $26 so I decided to spin the wheel of possible regret in ordering overseas. I have not had the greatest luck with that. Especially in faux leather, that was extra stress points, wondering if it would come in looking like a plastic tablecloth or some unwearable hot mess. I was pleasantly surprised however when the skirt came in. The pleats are not as large as I wanted but it looked like the listing photo so I count it as a win. It was harder to find a longer one than I thought it would be. Granted, I am only 5’2 so everything is long on me, but at almost 34” in length, it’s the longest one I could find.
The leather-trimmed cardigan is by Ralph Lauren. I love the gold detail on it. It’s the perfect outfit for the transition from winter to spring, when it’s still chilly but you want to wear white. I plan on styling it with several different things in the future. I get sooo many compliments on this skirt, the gamble paid off.
