Can you believe it? Not only is summer over but we are only 26 days away from Halloween! So to my faithful readers: it's time to move full on into your fall wardrobe.
One of the hottest trends for this season is leather or—dare I say it—pleather. Oh boy. What feelings that word evokes from those of us who were teens in the 80s and 90s. Way back then, if you pleather’d vs. leather’d ... it was a major fashion faux pas.
Not these days. (Animal lovers, rejoice!) Pleather is just as in demand as leather. We can probably thank high-end designers like Stella McCartney for designing her collections of clothing, shoes and handbags with vegan leather. The best part about the acceptance of pleather and vegan leathers is that it makes this awesome trend an option for anyone’s budget.

Below are some of my favorites “leather” jackets that span the leather-pleather spectrum from our local haunts. There is even one for about $110 for Chanel enthusiasts at Macy's by none other than Karl Lagerfeld (which today was on sale for $69.99) and check out the ones from the GAP and Old Navy (courtesy of the GAP/Old Navy website, you can get 30% off until 11:59 p.m. tonight with the code “48hours.”)
