Tight Leather Skirts Are Hot.

They really are. Well they could be hot in terms of temperature too, if you are wearing one in the Sahara. But otherwise, they do a lot for your legs.

“Utsavi, can you show us how to wear a black leather pencil skirt, please? Could we see business, date night and casual?”- Clare

So leather skirts are always tricky. They have so much of a personality that you don’t want to enhance it anymore or dampen it. Based on this problem, I have laid out a few options that could help you out.

casual

This could be a great casual option. Look for muscle tees or any loose ones and tuck them in. Avoid choosing any other colors but in backs, grays or whites. Tees with a faded retro look are the best options. At least I absolutely have always loved them. Wear plain black booties, avoid too much embellishments on them. Pair the outfit up with a slouch backpack and a stunning red lipstick. Now this outfit can also be work on a date night. I would just change the bag. Obviously if this date is more at a rock n roll bar and not an upscale dinner.

If the first casual outfit is a little too ” dark” for you, then you can also try any white/gray loose tee or a boyfriend tee and tuck it in. Stripes would look great on this skirt too and for he safest bet, a cropped soft knit always works like a charm. For a more boho look, try tassels and tanned coloured bags.

 

work

Now wearing a leather skirt to work is always tricky. But if you pair them up with the right blouse, it will work just fine. Japanese prints on blouses are so stylish. I absolutely love japanese themed clothes. Once again, you don’t want blouses in any other colour at all. Avoid dramatic blouses as they will collide with the skirt. You can always wear the point-toes flats in black but if you do want to add some colour, then maybe a mauve look that include accessories and shoes can be worn too. Don’t wear a bright red lipstick at work with this skirt. Once again, you can opt for an ox-blood colour.

 

date night

For a night out whether fine dining or dancing, you can bolden your look by wearing sequined cropped tops. You can also try a lacy bustier with a fur vest. Once again, I would go for an oxblood matte lipstick than a bright red.

 

So these are the looks, hope I covered any doubts you had. For any more outfit requests or just to show any appreciation, do leave a comment or just show a like.
