This is why I love style. A horrible faux pas can be turned into a thing chic and fashionable by a single trendsetter in a second flat. Take leather bottoms for example: What utilized to come to mind was Russell Brand and numerous ’80s hair metal musicians jammed into as well-tight leather pants. But if you ask us about leather bottoms these days, we think of Rachel Bilson seeking adorable on Hart of Dixie in a pair of leather shorts with a tailored jacket.
Of course, right here at CF, we stay away from real leather whenever feasible, and are as a result loving the fake leather versions of these shorts. We really like the look (and value tag) of fake leather bottoms with a plain white tee, fitted jacket, and bold accents. We specifically enjoy the juxtaposition of a feminine blouse or dainty jewelry with these rocker shorts. Even so, we can not help but ponder if this look will last or be a short-lived summer time fad.

Although maxi dresses are a summer weather staple, they can be tricky to put on. I often really feel like I’m dressing up in a hippie costume, which is not specifically my definition of trendy.
