Leather Makes Everything Better 

I remember last fall sitting with my family in Galletto, devouring the mouth watering mushroom risotto when I looked up. This woman standing at the bar was wearing these amazing leather pants with a simple blouse and blazer. She looked sexy and sophisticated yet effortless and I think that represents every Westlake woman. For the last few seasons Leather has escaped the generalization of being used for only jackets, handbags and boots. For this upcoming fall you will be seeing even more of it! Throw on a pleated leather skirt with a peter pan collared blouse. The contrast of the leather and romantic blouse will complement each other perfectly. Designers such as Diane Von Furstenberg, Nanette Lepore, Alexander Wang and Vince are all showing leather dresses for this fall in all different silhouettes. I know it sounds a little scary to some of you but If you want to be daring slip into a pair of leather pants to give your look some edge. Local store, Madison, located in the Westlake Promenade is already getting ready for fall, receiving shipments of leather skirts, pants and blouses. Go stop in and try on some leather pieces to spice up your wardrobe for fall!
