Savvy in Suede -

Say hello to suede this season as it’s taking center stage for all things warm and chic – this skirt especially.

Suede is one of those fabrics that never seems to go out of style and there’s a reason for it too. With its versatility, suede is easily considered a wardrobe staple as it’s one of those pieces that will always come in handy.

This skirt alone is a prime example of savvy suede. Fitted and flattering, this skirt can easily be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Here, I’ve paired this high waisted suede skirt with a retro off the shoulder striped top making for a fun yet modern 70’s inspired style, a look that’s perfect for a casual lunch or day on the town. Come the evening, this skirt could be transformed into evening chic paired with a sleek black top and a leather jacket creating a contrast between the soft suede and edgy leather, top off this evening look with a statement necklace or earring to craft a look that stands out.

When shopping for suede, my advice is to opt for fitted pieces that showcase your own unique features and sway away from downing in the fabric which would take so much away from the chicness of this fabric. This skirt is the perfect example of what to look for when shopping suede. What I love most about this style in particular is the firmness of the piece. It sits right below the rib cage and sucks in everything beneath all while maintaining comfort and style – need I say more?
