Trend Alert: “The Faux Leather Skater Skirt”
For the past two weeks I have been watching a new trend develop and decided to finally do a specific post on it. It is the ‘Faux Leather Skater Skirt’ or some may call it the ‘Faux Leather Pleated Skirt’. I included this trend in my ‘Must Have’ list for the Fall but I’ve seen a few more pop up since then. I first saw one on the New Look website and from there I have spotted a couple more that I like. Now I am not a short skirt lover myself but am trying to break out of that shell slowly but surely as you will see in upcoming post. But this faux leather skirt trend has me eager to try something new. Some ladies may be self conscious about cellulite showing with such a short mini but since it will be getting a little cooler soon out, I just suggest wearing the skirt with a pair of flesh-tone or pattered tights for that problem.

I’m still a huge fan of the New Look one… it just looks like it would lay perfectly and look so classy. I’m going to have to break down and buy it. lol Thanks for sharing the alternatives too!

Excellent advice! If I feel it’s too short, I turn to tights also. It’s difficult “to break out of that shell” … Proud of ya! You’ll Rock it as usual! #NoDoubt
I am looking for tights that are short size like 28″ inseam. I hate pulling up my tights all the time. Any ideas? I love skirts but I cannot wear them bear legged.
