I'd like to find a nice cropped one. Where did you get yours Kaz?
I have a dark brown leather jacket that I bought in London that I get a fair bit of wear out of.

It's not quite the electric blue trend that we're loving at the moment, but we still adore the blue polka dot mini-dress which model Miranda Kerr graced recently.



Just like her, it's as cute as a button. But we think it's the pairing of the mini-dress with a cropped leather jacket, fitting in perfectly with the leather jacket trend, that really sets this one apart.

What do you think of her look? Cast your vote.

I couldn't agree more with Tania. A good leather jacket goes with "rougher" looks as well as cocktail dresses and it certainly looks great. BUT, it has to be fake leather!

"fake leather" does not have the properties of real leather. besides, my couch, my car, my shoes, even my sunglass case are all leather! and I eat meat too. what do you think your ancestors covered themselves in when they were cold before people started making synthetic fabrics?

What a cheap argument, that was back then. The world has changed. If there is an alternative fabric to animal skin I'd personally go for that. But indeed synthetic leather does not have the properties of real leather, for instant it doesn't "breathe" as real leather does. We know that. But then again, I could live without those properties. Only time I'd agree with the usage of leather is if it's essentially needed for a humans survival. I don't think that applies to your sunglass case. But then again, we're all entitled to our own choices and we will hold our own opinions. So why don't you keep yours and I'll keep mine?
