I’m still convinced that a leather detail sweater is the perfect way to rock the trend without going all hardcore. This softly draped sweater from Saks Fifth Avenue’s in-house BLACK label has just enough faux leather to look on trend, but not so much that it takes over the sweater. It’s available in both grey and black.

This standout peplum dress has a ladylike silhouette, accented by an exposed back zip that adds a little edge. This dress would be ideal for cocktails or a daytime event that calls for a more fashion-forward look.

Leather detail leggings are definitely a wardrobe must have. I love the diagonal faux leather details on these poly-blend leggings – it’s so unique compared to the standard tux stripe detail that’s all over the racks.
