My wardrobe is like a game of Jenger. I have at least 2-3 pieces of clothing teetering on each lonely hanger. And that’s when i tend to forget things I own or even recently purchased.
This weekend I had a mini clear out which I’ve sworn to do every so many months. That’s when i came across my trusty leather pleated skirt from Warehouse. I bought it for New Years Eve last year and haven’t had much wear out of it due to the fact its been playing hide & seek in my wardrobe.
The leather skirt is probably a key item in most fashion forward wardrobes. Its a great Autumn/Winter piece which can be dressed up with statement jewellery and shoes boots or dressed down with a casual loose jumper and simple accessories.
I paired it with my ultimate favorite Marc By Marc Jacobs rose gold watch and my burgundy bat wing jumper which is also from Warehouse, its a loose fit with fitted sleeves. I always find it to be the perfect jumper that i can throw on over a body con skirt for a more casual look or tuck it in with a cinched in waist skirt. The jumper shoulders are so detailed if you were going more for a casual look you probably wouldn’t need a necklace as it slightly takes the attention away.
