Faux Leather Leggings
These leather-looking leggings look like they could kick someone’s butt! Soften the style with a long button down or with a chic pullover sweater.

Skirt
Yes you can wear leather to the office! Opt for a leather pencil skirt that hits right at the knee. Pair it with a tucked in silky blouse and pumps for a sophisticated and polished look.

Clutch
For a subtle touch of edge, go for a leather clutch like this studded one. You can probably get away with pairing this with anything in your closet. But it’d spice up an evening dress with this chic accessory.

Top
A leather peplum top like this looks great with a bright pair of skinny jeans or pencil skirt. This piece may be made of leather, but the style gives off a fun feminine flair!

Dress
How adorable is this leather faux dress? I love that this mini-dress is flared rather than skin-tight. It creates the perfect balance of edgy-yet-girly. Pair the dress with an elegant pair of pointy-toe pumps or high-heeled ankle booties to finish off the look.

Jacket
This leather piece is definitely not your typical motorcycle jacket. I love the quilted and mini stud details. You can easily dress this up or down. Use this sophisticated jacket to give some edge to your favorite LBD or pair it with those hard-to-match pretty floral jeans.
