There will never be a wardrobe staple quite like a classic black leather biker jacket. So versatile and so easy to wear, or is it? If you get stuck in a styling rut (you know, always wearing it with the same outfit) here's some styling tips that'll change your life!
1. Wear it with all back. Yeah, there is no chic-er way to do it - an all black outfit (think skinny jeans ripped at the knee and a black tee), topped off with a sexy leather biker is simple and oh-so easy to pull off!
2. Style it with a V-neck tee. My go-to look is to always pair a leather biker with a soft and floaty v-neck tee. Comfortable, semi casual and shows a little bit of skin (which never hurts, right?)
3. Layer it with a hoodie. "What?! A hoodie", you might say. Well, if Kendall Jenner is doing it then it is good enough for me! Go for a grey marle, or something with a print on the front.
4. Throw it over a chunky knit. In addition to keeping you warm, this look is also really slimming. A great option for winter, especially on breezy days.
5. Give it a little sparkle. Wear your biker with some chunky jewels around your neck for a chic, and more done-up look. Throw on a pair of heels and you're ready to take on the town
6. Let your lingerie peek out. You may have read a little about boudoir dressing at the moment, and there is no better way to incorporate the trend than by wearing a lacy cami underneath your leather jacket. A little bit pretty, a little bit biker and a lot bit sexy!
7. Slip on a knit dress. I absolutely love this look for autumn/winter this year. Knit dresses on their own are gorgeous and can have a really done/undone look when done right - add a leather biker to finish.
8. Wear it athleisure style. Sounds impossible (or just awful) but styling your leather jacket with a pair of chic trackies has an effortless look to it - very French! Though I can't say I have seen many French girls out in their tracksuit ha!
9. Pretty it up. Contrast the biker look by wearing your jacket with a pretty, floating skirt or dress. Even better, style it with lace!
19. Wear it with stripes. Because, well, stripes!
