STYLE INSPIRATION SERIES: PART 9

Oh Leather, I just love you! (insert leather squeak)

This style inspiration must have is my ultimate versatile piece. This can be worn with just about any item of clothing and will instantly turn your look edgy.

The "bomber" jacket was originally made during WWII when bomber planes weren't air proof and were extremely cold to be in at high altitudes. American (and British) armies issued these thick leather jackets lined with sheepskin and silk to their pilots to help keep them warm on missions.

Invest in timeless pieces, and you’ll never be at a loss for what to wear for whatever occasion and season.

Here are some of my favorite ways to wear the bomber.

WEDNESDAY WHO KNEW!

 

Want to hear a great etiquette tip? When you're introducing someone, you should always say their name first and their relationship to you second.

Wrong: "This is my sister, Rachel."
Right: "This is Rachel, my sister."

That way, you spotlight the person--not their connection to you. It's a small thing, but it makes a lovely difference! I just learned this, and I'm doing it from now on!
