If theres one fabric that never seems to go out of style, its leather. From classic biker jackets and leather satchels to more daring leather trousers, leather always rears its stylish head on the catwalk and on the street.

In 2013, leather has quickly evolved from a timeless fashion fallback to a key mens clothing trend of the year. If you want to get in on the trend, there are plenty of different ways to make leather work for you.

The simplest and most time-honoured way to wear this enduring fabric is in the form of a leather jacket. The iconic status of the leather jacket has been reinforced in countless films, from James Deans classic cut in 1955s Rebel Without a Cause to the many red ones sported by Brad Pitt in 1999s Fight Club.

Todays styles havent veered too far from the mould. Biker jackets are still typically solid black, with an asymmetrical zip and pockets on either side. Some variations may offer extra details, like patterned stitching at the shoulders or cuffs. But in general, leather jackets look just as stylish worn over jeans and a white t-shirt in 2013 as they did in 1955.

If youre after a modern twist on this classic style, seek out a brown leather jacket with a ribbed fabric waist and three-quarter sleeves. This style particularly suits slim men who might otherwise be swamped by the square proportions of a traditional style. A tailored jacket with leather elbow patches is another great way to sneak leather into a contemporary formal outfit.

Alternatively, for outerwear thats less biker gang and more fighter pilot, look for a style with a sheepskin collar and cuffs. Sheepskin is another key trend for 2013, and combining it with leather is the ideal way to fuse two fashion must-haves this year.

More ways to wear leather

Naturally, mens leather jackets arent the only way to wear this vintage fabric. Leather shirts, for instance, are a quick and easy way to join the trend, and look great worn with jeans and smart shoes to a bar or restaurant. And if youre feeling brave, its never been a better time to wear leather trousers. If you decide to take the plunge, its advisable to go all in: leather trousers look their best when theyre matched with a leather jacket. Wear with a simple Merino wool jumper for a sophisticated look, or a graphic t-shirt for an outfit that stands out from the crowd.

Growing up doesn’t mean you have to start dressing like your more elderly relations, there’s plenty of room in your wardrobe for fun, exciting and interesting outfits no matter what age you are. There are few styles as great for letting your hair down and getting ready to party as the classic rock chick, and you’ll be glad to know that you dont necessarily have to leave it behind as you get older. All you need to do is make some minor adjustments to the basics and you’ll have a rock chick look that will allow you to party all night whatever age you are.

The rock chick look can be very flattering to women of all ages as long as you’re willing to say good-bye to some of the more risqu favourites. With a few simple swaps, you’re already halfway there. Ditch the teeny tiny mini skirts in favour of tight black pencil skirts and swap bright pink leopard print leggings for a pair of muted metallic tights. The rock chick look is all about attitude, so look for ways you can tone down the style without losing any of the intent.

Slim or skinny fit jeans are perfect especially when teamed with a classic, fitted white shirt or a vest top. Good boots are another essential and even if you think your days of thigh highs are past, a small heel and some kick ass pointy toes are just the thing to give your outfit an edge. The key to updating the rock look is to mix grunge with grown up glamour. Think faded band t-shirt combined with a gorgeous gold pendant or a rough and tough jeans and jacket combo softened by a pink slip and a slash of red lipstick.

Leather trousers and skirts are another characteristic rock look that just keeps coming back and if you have the figure to get away with them, go for it. Moderation is the key thing to remember here, while leather trousers and a simple singlet can look great, if you pair leather boots, trousers and jacket, you could end up looking like a washed out star rather than a fashion-savvy woman in her prime.

Of course, the real crowning glory to any rock chick ensemble is a beautiful, tough leather biker jacket. Choose wisely and your leather jacket will see you through thick and thin as it will look great with everything from skinny jeans and plimsolls to covering a floaty white dress and sandals. There are few jackets as versatile as the biker jacket and while it has real rock and roll roots, its now also a firm fashion favourite with trend setters the world over.

Transform yourself into a sophisticated rock chick ready for a wild night on the tiles by slipping on your womens leather biker jacket, using some soft kohl to outline your eyes and accessorising with some oversized silver or gold bangles. You’ll have the grown up rock chick look down to a T, all you’ll need to do to hang on to that glamorous aura is stay away from karaoke bars and the temptation to blast out a few classics.

When you are choosing the right pieces of handcrafted jewellery to accessories your outfits it can become quite an art form. You have not only to take into account the type of jewellery you are choosing but also the style, colours, design what it is made from and the occasion it is going to be worn for.

Finding the right piece that will fit all these criteria and it can sometimes become a headache and what are the right pieces to wear for the right occasions, should I wear a beaded necklace of glass beads with a woollen jumper, should I wear pearl earrings to go shopping in and will it be OK to accessories my little black dress with a jewellery set of wooden beads. There are so many ways we can get it wrong but do not worry there are so many ways that we can get it right.

One of the rules when choosing your pieces of handcrafted jewellery to wear is that it should compliment what you are wearing. If you are wearing something that is soft and slinky then you need to look for designs that are delicate and feminine. Semi-precious pendants with lovely semi-precious pendants on fine chains or necklaces crafted from small beads of crystal beads and pearls will look beautiful will feminine styles of clothes. If it is a casual outfit of jeans and a jumper that you are going to wear then bright beaded designs will look good worn with these. You can dress a casual outfit up into something bright and funky by adding these pieces of handcrafted jewellery and there are many designs in the shops for you to choose from and these will include beaded necklaces, jewellery bracelets made from bright beads and earrings in every colour that you could ever want.

It is not only the style of the outfit that if you are accessorising that has been taken into consideration but the colour plays a large part. If the outfit has a busy pattern then keep your pieces of handcrafted jewellery plain in both colour and design. Look for just one colour within the pattern of the outfit and use this as the chosen colour of the jewellery. If you think that your outfit as a frame for your earrings, bracelets, necklaces, jewellery sets, and other pieces this will help. If your outfit is black you will find that most colours will look great with this but if you are looking for something that is really dramatic then a large statement piece of Stirling Silver jewellery will look amazing and if you do not want to wear a necklace you could choose a jewellery set of matching large cuff bracelet and earrings. The designs of these could just be crafted from silver or they could be set with your favourite semi-precious stone. Sterling silver also looks stunning with dark red, green and blues. Try mixing the same colours but in different shades for example if you have a pale blue dress team it up with pieces of handcrafted that have been made from Blue Goldstone and if it is a lilac coloured suit then the semi-precious stone Amethyst would compliment this perfectly.

You have also to think about the event that this piece of handcrafted jewellery is going to be worn for, if it is very formal and you are going to be wearing and off the shoulder ball gown you could opt to wear something bright and sparkly in the form of a collar necklace with long chandelier earrings or if it is just a casual dinner date with friend you might want to wear something that is bright and funky.

Just remember have fun and show some of your own personality in your choices.

A good leather jacket can be your best fashion friend. Not only will quality leather last for years, but it will also turn out to be one of the most flexible items in your wardrobe. Dont be scared of slipping into a tailored leather jacket and experimenting with your look. Womens leather jackets come a in variety of cuts, including biker and boyfriend styles, but for a leather jacket youll be able to wear to a whole variety of places, a tailored one is your best bet.

Team your leather jacket with a flowery, flowing dress for that boho chic look beloved of stars like Kate Moss and Sienna Miller. This works so well because the structure and heaviness of the jacket contrasts alluringly with the light, floaty fabric of the dress.

Wear your hair tousled and free and pick some sassy boots for your feet and you have the perfect mixture of sassy and sweet. On warmer days, you can even make this look work with sandals, but only if you keep your legs bare and accessorise with a pair of statement sunglasses.

A tailored leather jacket is also a great choice for women who work in busy offices as it can be beautifully coordinated with a skirt or trouser suit. For this look, think of high heeled boots and hair swept back off your face but avoid wearing too much jewellery as the look is already very powerful.

When a chilled out jeans and t-shirt day rolls around you can throw your leather jacket over whatever youre wearing. It will look especially lovely if youre wearing three-quarter length jeans and a pair of ballet flats as you channel old Hollywood glamour. On the other hand, baggy jeans and a vintage band tee is a great way to let your hair down.

For a more daring but equally casual look, swap your jeans out for a pair of leggings and wear an oversized belt loosely around your hips. For your top half, either a tee or a tunic top will look great and a pair of Converse or some demure heels will set the outfit off nicely.

If you want to give your leather jacket a more casual feel, just push the sleeves up to your elbows and leave the zip or buttons undone. This looks even better if youre wearing a large necklace or flowing neck scarf and gives you a great touch of seemingly effortless glamour. For the opposite effect, cinch longer tailored jackets at the waist using a belt and youll have a more professional edge instantly.

When it comes to accessorising a leather jacket, there are few feistier choices than a pair of bright red lips, a wrist full of jangling bangles or a nice long pendant. The only thing to avoid is very small or fussy jewellery as it can look a little swamped and fiddly when youre rocking a tailored jacket.

There are so many ways to wear womens tailored jackets and also leather bomber jackets youll quickly find they will become one of your favourite fashion staples. Its a good thing leather is so hard wearing, you might find you hardly ever want to take it off.
