Genuine leather and faux leather are hot fashion trends

Black leather jacket with red trim, $89, from a range of one-off leather jackets priced from $50 to $400, available at Etika, Star Court Arcade, Lismore.
A HUGE trend this winter is leather. Leather pants, jackets, skirts, vests - you name it.
You can find pieces in genuine leather or faux leather everywhere.
One of the looks I love is leggings with panelled faux leather, they are an inexpensive way to get the look and often more flattering than leather pants.
But a leather jacket is another matter - any colour, any shape goes and it's the perfect addition to any wardrobe.
Again, there are also faux leather jackets or vests that can achieve the same look for a fraction of the price, but for my money, a well-fitted, genuine leather jacket is something every woman should have in her wardrobe.
