WRAP WATCHES AND LEATHER CUFF WATCHES FOR WOMEN & MEN

Wrap watches are meant to look like you have layers of bracelets and jewelry worn together but it is made easy as the watch is often enough or you can add a few bangles or pieces to accentuate. Men's leather cuff watches have been big and continue to trendy for fall/winter.  Go for more bling (i.e. gold or silver detail) or less depending on your personal style.

 

To this I would add gold bracelets and layer it.  ShopBop La Mer Pyramid Stud Wrap Watch, $106.

COLLAR NECKLACES...MIXED METALS FOR FALL

Statement necklaces have been big for over a year.  But this fall Collar Necklaces will change that style slightly.  Collar necklaces are statement pieces that stay amongst the collar line of your shirt or top.  Mixed metals, gold, siler, bronze with crystals are how you will amp your look for fall.  These pair nicely with a statement bag and heels with metal elements (or flats).

LUSCIOUS LEATHER LOOKS FOR FALL

How to wear leather in summer and to transition to fall?  Try color blocking.  Wear a bright colored leather skirt or shorts with a contrasting bright top as seen here.  Pair with a nude pump or sandal.

 

For summer to fall, pair a bright bold colored top with a black leather skirt, black leather shorts, or camel/beige colored skirt/shorts.  This neon hue keeps the look fresh and fun, ala Kerry Washington.

 

Peplum tops are a great leather option for fall.  Go rocker glam with leather leggings, or wear it to the office with a sleek pencil skirt.  Slim fit pants look great with this top.  

Halogen Lambskin Peplum Top, $84.90 (Nordstrom's petites, check store for regular sizes)

Leather skirts are great for summer, fall, and winter.  Wear bright colored and printed chiffon tops for summer.  Change your heels to edgier or leather pumps for fall and in winter add textured tights.  Pleated leather skirts are big this season.  Wear with a fitted top to emphasize the skirt.  Pencil leather skirts are always on trend and work with most body types and different looks and styles of tops.  All age groups can wear pencil skirts.

Ideas for Ways to Wear Two Different Types of Leather Skirts

Leather Leggings transition from summer to fall via the top you wear.  Bold flowy tops or sparkly tank tops are great with strappy sandals for summer.  Add a fitted blazer.  Change your heels from sandals to spikey pumps or open toe booties.  For older women or those more self-concious, pair with a mesh longer sweater.
