new fave

#1 - I recently realized that I really want a pair of leather shorts or a leather skirt. I'm worried it's too late to find either any more. I feel like the skirt, though, would transition much more seamlessly into fall. (photo from StockholmStreetStyle)

#2 - Isabelle's blog, Style With Isabelle, which can be accessed through StockholmStreetStyle, is one of my new favorites. She almost always has similar style interests to me.

#3 - Isabelle's most recent outfit. I love this pattern and wish it came in skirt form.

Saw a pair of pants that looked exactly like this at H&M on Monday. They didn't have my size but after seeing this photo I may have to hunt them down - black or khaki?

I really love leather leggings and how they look with just about anything. However, I know I would look super stupid in them. I'm really short and I used to swim competitively, so my legs aren't really anywhere near being long and lean enough to pull off this trend. So I have settled for looking at street style photos - I love how these ladies dressed their leather both up and down. Also, I wish I could find out where to get a pair like the girl in the last photo. They aren't as form-fitting and are more pant-ish, so I think this is a version of the trend I could actually wear. I'll have to look around for something similar.

Oh and on a side note: I picked up my Payless booties and they are INTENSE - in a good way. They're clearly not leather but with a good outfit they should fit in just fine. Hopefully once my camera is fixed I'll post some shoe photos.
