Trending Now: White Jumpsuits on the Red Carpet




This week Elle Women in Hollywood 2013 and Fashion Group International 2013 both held events and many celebrites were in attendance.  As usually the stars looked flawless, but I (Leather) could not help but to notice the white jumpsuits seen on the red carpets.  Megan Good, Naya Rivera, and Joan Smalls opt for deep plunging V neckline versions, while Scandal's very own Darby Stanchfield decided to rock a cutout version. What are your thoughts on this trend?  Who has your vote for the best white jumpsuit red carpet look?

Twenty Something Us

This blog is supposed to be about us, supposed to illustrate our interests, and our passion and in some ways it does. Leather, the edgy fashionista illustrates herself by her posts about fashion and Lace attempts to show her heart with talks of causes. But what is really missing is tone. You can look at all the pretty pictures and know which organization is doing what or which designer released what, but if you really want to know who Leather and Lace are here goes….

We are Dreamers, utterly consumed with our passion and desire to never work again. When I say never work again I don’t mean non-stop vacations, though that would be nice. I mean loving what you do so much that it’s not work, it’s purely you being yourself in every moment of everyday and being free to express whatever liberates you. Whether you are trying to find a cure for cancer and know that each trial will bring you one step closer to saving millions of lives or walking dogs because you’re an avid animal lover you’re experiencing pure joy. And the idea of having that kind of joy in your life daily is what fuels us.


In addition to the posts that you know and love, we plan to incorporate more of what is going on behind the passion, the ups and downs that many of us face being twenty-something. We want to give you a deeper look into the souls of dreamers…….

NYFW SS14: The trend classic black & white

As NYFW finished up, there were many trends seen on the runways.  The major trend on just about every runway from Ralph Lauren menswear inspired black and white looks to Giulietta color-blocking and graphic designs was the classic black and white color trend.  Whether shown on the runway as a crop top, striped skirt, suit, coat, color-blocking print, or head scarf one things for sure designers can't get enough of the classic black and white combo.  Black and white is definitely a trend that has carried over from season to season and still strong as ever. Black and white are stable colors in most people wardrobes, so why not combine the two colors and give us fabulous looks like the ones shown above from NYFW.  Next up LFW, so stay tuned for Leather's favorite top trend that London will deliver!

Milly Spring 2014

This collection in one word is perfection.  Every single look was femininity at its best.  This collection is sexy yet very classy, showing of curves in a very elegant way.  From the crop tops, below the knee pencil skirts, fishnet dresses, and the colorful prints, Milly's collection definitely brought sexy back.  Even the styling with the black leather gloves and sandal heels gets two thumbs up.  What are your thoughts on Milly's SS 2014 looks?
