leather down


Recently I finally acquired another closet staple: the leather moto. I didn't have to look anywhere else but Nasty Gal, knowing I can count on them to find the raddest jackets around. I'm a sucker for the classic quilt texture, so I knew this was meant to be. I'm caught throwing this over everything to give some edge, especially over something really girly. I love this maxi dress from Sosie; it is the perfect subtle and minimalist statement of the tie-dye trend. It has the cutest ruffles on top, but I just had to tone it down with the leather for the cool gloom kind of day that was happening. This dress is so practical, comfortable, and cute; if I could without looking like I'm a broke homeless fashion victim, I'd wear this dress every day.

Don't be afraid to mix polar ends of the fashion spectrum. Sometimes they meet in beautiful harmony.


dress: c/o ShopSosie
