TWO IN ONE. The key to packing light when traveling is to bring versatile pieces that can be worn in lots of different ways and the leather jacket above is a genius example of a multipurpose item. Technically, it’s actually a leather dress, but when worn unbuttoned, it turns into this awesome, short-sleeved leather jacket. Boom, two in one!

LEATHER DRESS WORN AS JACKET Rebecca Minkoff (on sale here!). KNIT Gant. SUNGLASSES Céline. JEANS J brand ‘Alana Crop‘. BAG Kurt Geiger. WATCH Michael Kors (here). SHOES Jimmy Choo ‘Abel‘.

I’ve always like coats which look like dresses bc worn as a coat it looks like a dress. But I haven’t thought of the reverse. Genius! And sooo sooo stunning!

Your black leather jacket is really cool, very stylish. With a dark sweater is a good choice, I like to mix white sweater. This style is very casual fashion. I like your clothes, shoes and bags. I think is a good idea to wear it when I go out. I usually go out with a casually dress, and does not fashion, I think it’s time to change my style of dress. I like your blog and look forward to your new one blog.
