Is there a way to wear leather that doesn’t look wannabe rock chick?

I have an issue with this ‘rock chick’ tag. Yes, I’m partial to a leather jacket, and I rarely wear any colour other than black, but I’ve never picked up an instrument and I’m fine with that. I would steer clear of top-to-toe leather (especially in one colour — only good for motorcyclists and actual cowboys), leather arm cuffs and suspiciously large quantities of studding. Mix softer fabrics and colours to balance your look. The key is nonchalance... just don’t try too hard. This navy jacket is perfect.

Orsolya loves: Agi & Sam for Evian

Agi & Sam for Evian

GQ’s Breakthrough Designers of 2014, Agi & Sam are turning their talents to women’s T-shirts, designing a range for Evian. Nice — but best of all, 15 per cent of the proceeds will go to Fashion Awareness Direct, which provides training for disadvantaged young people who want to work in fashion.
