Leather Skirt Street Style

As soon as I laid eyes on this look from Fab reader Katnani, I was smitten. Her minimalistic take on the leather skirt trend is so chic and avant-garde – I could easily picture it in the pages of a glossy. I especially love that she decided to forego any additional accessories, and focus solely on her quilted skirt, white button-up blouse, and slouchy open-toe booties. Great less is more Read more
