A leather jacket is a fun way to add a contemporary vibe to your every day casual outfit. For the most part, it’s an in-between jacket that you can wear anytime of the year. A leather jacket also makes a great layering piece. There are a variety of styles and colors available which offer something for every personality and age group. Yes, I think it’s a trend that any of us can incorporate into our style. It’s probably the only jacket in your closet that you’ll be wearing all year long. Today I am sharing a few casual leather outfit ideas that you can incorporate into your style.
Three Leather Jacket Trends for 2020
Leather Bombers – A Traditional leather jacket is a great casual look that can be worn with a turtleneck and jeans or with a trendy satin skirt and a graphic t-shirt. I like the idea of
High Waist Jeans/ Tan Purse/ Blue Satin Midi Skirt / Black Mule
A leather Blazer – wearing a timeless leather blazer shows effortless style. A fun trendy twist that takes the edginess out of black leather jackets is to wear them with floral dresses. I like how it mixes a traditional with a feminine twist.
Turtleneck/ Red Lip/ Leopard Boot/ Black Tote
Colored Leather -Have fun with colors, white or tan are still very versatile and can coordinate with many pieces you may already own. Feel like a splurge go with a pop of color that makes a statement
Taupe Bag/ Black Bootie
100% real leather is certainly an investment. There are options to buy great pieces on E-bay or through consignment shops or online stores like The RealReal. And of course, there is the faux leather alternative. Whichever style jacket you select, keep in mind that your options for styling are endless. You can swap out what you wear with it. Trends are fun but they do not stick around. Choose a leather jacket or blazer that is your true signature style. Something you’ll keep around for years. With that you can change up your slacks for denim jeans, along with blouses, and t-shirts, and sweaters. Make it a worthy investment piece that just gets more comfortable each time you wear it.
Great advice, Nancy! I’m so glad I’ve kept my leather jackets from years ago.
Yes, I am too and the more you wear them the more comfortable they are!
Love these ideas! I live in Florida so don’t wear leather often, however, love the lightweight offerings!
I know what you mean about not having to wear leather jackets in Florida. Since I’ve just moved here recently I found the chilly days are far and few between. I just keep telling myself this is a good thing.
Thank you for reading my blog,

I love it all! Especially the 2nd combo, it has me all over it- long floral and that sharp leather blazer! wow. I do lve the Le Specs sunnies, but have prescription glasses, so I just ordered a pair of sunglasses that should come soon. The vibrant blue midi skirt is lovely! I have a sliky slipdress I look forward to wearing in the Spring.
Have a great week!

Oh a slip dress sounds so feminine can’t wait t see your post! I could also see you in the floral and leather combo. Thank you for reading my blog.
Enjoy you week too Jess!
Nancy,
A leather jacket is perfect for us Florida gals! Because we do get some cooler days.
It’s not too heavy and bulky. Plus if we need more warmth, we can add a heavier sweater underneath.
I could be happy with any one of your picks. But, I especially like the black blazer. It’s just my style!

Thank you Rosemary, I love the weather here even if I only get a few opportunities to wear a jacket! It’s always nice hearing from you, maybe some day we will have the chance to meet up.
Have a wonderful week!
