The Virtual Sylist: Werkin' Leather For Spring + Summer

A few days ago I received a note asking for suggestions on how to wear leather for spring and summer. I chose a faux-leather jacket because the synthetics tend to be lighter than leather (the exception are higher-end leathers which are as light as a feather). A pair of distressed denim boyfriend or white skinny jeans would be a great alternative for the the high-low skirt. Tell me (or better yet, show me!!!) how you would werk it.
