Current Must-Haves

I find that I spend a large amount of time online shopping. Here are a few things that have caught my eye recently that I just can't seem to get off my mind.

• Mimi Chica Chambray & Chiffon Bustier Maxi Dress (can be found at Nordstrom) 

• Essie's winter 2012 collection ("butler please" looks AMAZING) and Essie's sleek sticks

• Wildflower Phone Cases

• Steve Madden "Fairmont" Boots

• Garage! This store just opened at a nearby mall. Garage sells amazing clothes at decent prices, and needless to say, I'M OBSESSED. 

Leather Skirt Love

Leather Skirt Love by heatherfeather722 featuring sleeveless tops


For years I always had a certain dislike for leather skirts. But after Cher Lloyd stepped out to perform at a teen vogue fashion show this fall, leather skirts were suddenly under my radar. I'm obsessed with the edgy look the skirt gives, while still being girly with the shape it has. The one I have framed here can be found at Nordstrom. I've spent a while deliberating on whether or not to buy it - I have even tried it on in the store! I can't seem to get it of my mind, which means that this skirt will more than likely be my next purchase. For $38, I think it's a steal!

In this set I created here on Polyvore, I added a bunch of tips I think would go well with this skirt. I think bustier or tank style tops look great, and for this time of year, a jacket and tights can be added to keep warm. It's easy to see that I also have a thing for collar detail on shirts. These can tone down the edginess of the skirt with lace, jewels, or pearls, or a collar can add to it with studs or spikes. Leather skirts have proved to be very versatile and definitely a must-have in my closet.
