I have been on a mission to find a great leather piece for fall - not a jacket; but rather shorts, pants or a skirt (or all of the above). But, being on a budget means that the faux options are more accessible for me. The key to purchasing faux (this goes for leather, suede & fur) is finding something that closely resembles the look & feel of the real thing. I loved the cut and color of this skirt & I've already found it to be incredibly versatile. It's easy to pair with a simple white blouse, as I did here...but I can also throw on a lightweight knit sweater with tights & booties when the fall chill hits the air.

You look amazing! I love this skirt. It is such a fabulous "leather" option.
What a gorgeous skirt!! I agree that it can be rocked with a plain white blouse (& got a great visual with the sweater & boots comment). The photos look great in the sun room :) I'm new to your blog so this is the first post i've read!

Love this look. Just did a shoot with that Forever 21 skirt. You were it so well. The orange clutch adds a nice touch.

I have a feeling this skirt, being a classic, will see you through many seasons. Lovely chic look with the white blouse (something I must find, I don't own one!)

good luck for your move!!
This is a great skirt! I've never seen leather (or pleather) look so demure. (In a good way.) They always seem to edgy for me to wear but this look is super cute.
Also,good luck with the new house!
Love the outfit! And congrats on the new house!
You look LOVELY!! I love the skirt and the clutch - this outfit is great!
This skirt is an amazing piece to add to your fall wardrobe. Such a classic cut and color that you'll be able to wear it for a long time to come. The clutch you paired with it adds the perfect pop of color.
Wait?! What?! You need to go back to your other blog and fill me in! ;) I am so excited for you guys! I just flipped over to the other blog to make sure I didn't miss something. I'm disconnected from all internet for a week and look what happens. LOL! From the looks out the window it looks like you are in the country?! Fun fun!!
Sorry, Lynn - I have been doing personal updates about the house & move on Facebook! It is out in the country on 5 acres... so exciting! :)
You look amazing!And your pictures are great!

I just bought this myself. I had it in my cart online but I decided I needed to see it in person to make sure it didn't have a "cheap" look. I love it - so soft and buttery. You wear it well.
