Outfit du Jour: Mistaken for Strangers

Today's tip for wearing summer clothes in fall is to add something leather. I was planning on wearing a t-shirt with this black leather motorcycle vest I thrifted a few weeks ago when I was visiting Brittany but it was a little chilly today, so I ended up putting this oversized gold sweater with it. You could layer almost anything with this kind of vest. I love the fringe and the silver buckle-things (no idea what they're really called...somebody help me out?) on the sides. I picked up this brown and black wool hat last weekend and it inspired me to mix a little of both colors into this outfit, so I added the brown leather bag too. I really love brown and black together, but I know it isn't everyone's favorite. You could always stick to one or the other though, or just to adding one leather item into an outfit. If you aren't sure if you like leather, try something small like a headband or bracelet to start with. I love leather, so having a vest, bag and suede boots doesn't really feel too over the top to me...but really, who am I kidding? I tend to like things over the top. The more the merrier!
