A LEATHER EDGE

Studded Leather Vest Sweater

“Cotton/cashmere black knit cardigan sweater with front fully studded leather piecing at chest. Double layered ribbing at hem with one side hanging loose for that “I just got into a fight” look. 85% cotton, 15% cashmere Piecing: 100% leather.”

The studded leather portion of this sweater is a hard look to pull off, but an interesting look nonetheless.  I love how it takes the preppy sense of the cardigan and crosses it with the rebellious edge of a biker.

Goodland Jacket

“Black varsity style jacket with a heavy wool exterior and debatable leather sleeves. snap closures and zippered front welt hand warming pockets. Ribbed trim at cuffs and hem. Fully lined. Shell: 80% wool, 20% nylon. Lining: 100% polyester. Sleeves: 100% leather.”

Interestingly enough it is the back profile of this jacket that caught my eye.  On most occasions, I have a great distaste for epaulets; they normally look really forced, but somehow they work here and balance out a really interesting jacket that turns into a vest.  2 for the price of 1!  But, please none of those convertible shorts/pants.
