We are working on a wardrobe for a woman over thirty. These are wardrobe basics that you
are going to wear day in and day out. Spend your money here and you will have them forever.
Now, we talked about winter coats, we talked about trenches, but just a note about leather.
Leather is a really great staple to have in your wardrobe. But, here is my note to you.
Unless you are a biker do not wear leather pants to work, ok, leather is really best
if it is kept in a simple classic form i.e. a coat a jacket. You, can do a little leather
jacket and have it fitted and look really cute or this is a leather coat obviously,
and as you see here is my tips on leather coats now you are probably thinking now gosh
Terry everything is black with you but black never goes out of style and I have had it
for years and it looks good with everything. So that is why I always have black. This leather
coat as you see, the leather is like butter if you are going to spend your money on leather
make sure that it really feels good because the better if feels the more expensive it
is. Next, a really good rule of thumb once again is simple style; simple style doesn't
go out of style, which is another good tip. Lining is so important whenever you are buying
anything you are going to keep for a long time lining really sells a number of problems.
First of all it really makes the clothing really drape better. Second of all it adds
an extra layer which it makes, it feels better over the body, it gives a much more finished
look. So, lining is always a good thing. And of course this is a zip up jacket but when
you look at accessories make sure that the belt, I have actually seen belts that don't
match. If it's got a belt make sure that the belt is made of the same leather. If it does
need to be altered, when you are altering leather it is a little bit more money so it
is always best to go with a simple style that is not going to cost you a fortune if you
do need to go that route. Ok, the length and the stitching and the zipper are all important.
Now, if you are not a leather girl and you want to go to suede, I just happen to have
a fabulous black suede jacket. Now, this does have a removable collar ok, once again this
style is very simple but with this collar and I put this baby on I get upgraded to first
class right away so give it a try. Once again you will notice that it is lined it does have
great stitching it's a simple style and the belt matches so that is just a quick little
exert on if you are going to buy leather or suede. You know the basics girls go with classic
styling, a really good color, little alterations, and make sure it is lined and you will wear
it forever.
