So a few weeks ago, I wrote THIS post showing you 5 of the best denim jackets out there, and it sparked a reader request for some awesome leather jackets – so here it is.
I love a leather (or leather-look) jacket almost as much as a denim jacket (actually, i think maybe even more!) they are SUCH a vital part of a versatile wardrobe.
In fact, a leather jacket is one of the FOUR items I think will double your wardrobe instantly so this post could save you loads of time and money 😉
So a few myths to dispel before I share with you some of my fave finds……
Am I too old for a leather jacket?
Um no. Don’t EVER feel that you are too old to wear anything. It’s all about how you style it. If you aren’t sure about a black, studded bomber-style, go for a softer, drape-front taupe leather jacket or the like, but no – you are not too old (no matter how old you are) for a leather jacket.
Are they just a trend that will pass quickly?Â
Well I’ve had my favourite leather jacket for about 8 years and I still wear it almost EVERY. SINGLE. WEEK. Pretty long trend. A leather jacket that suits your style and shape will last for years and years so something definitely worth investing in.
So here’s a mix of real leather, and faux-leather jacket options, with something for everyone!
SHOP THE JACKETS: 1) Decjuba “Cleo” leather jacket $329.95 | 2) CottonOn “Billie” faux-leather jacket $69.95 | 3) Just Jeans zip leather biker jacker $249.95 | 4) Portmans “moto” crop leather jacket $199.95 | 5) Max quilted leather jacket on sale $179.99 (was $349.95)

This is one of those pieces I highly recommend investing in – so go forth and shop.
