The one piece that I was looking forward more than anything this fall is the leather short. I realize that to some a leather short is a bit of reach, but for those willing to take a chance and try them, we promise you will not be disappointed.
The Joie Denver Leather Short is a beautiful piece that is so wearable. It is just how you choose to put it together. It needs to worn in a way that best reflects you and what you feel the most comfortable wearing.
To give you some ideas, we styled this Hot Fall Trend 3 ways.
Classic – a style that never goes out… of style. The key is the downplay of the pieces and up play of the accessories. 
Wear the short to work with a little jacket or out for a day of shopping with some short, flat boots. Top with a button up shirt by Elizabeth and James, a fun statement piece of jewelry (we chose a Streets Ahead belt) like Gemma Redux or a simple glass bauble ring from TRE, add a wide, strappy heel and a grocery style bag from Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent.
For Night – Perfect for a date night out or a girls night on the town. We love this Graham & Spencer Lace Back Cami because the lace is subtle, yet sexy. Not sure you want to share the lace? throw on a Blazer. This whole outfit is so on-trend with Leather and Lace. The Pour La Victoire Short Bootie is a great way to toughen up this really girly look.
This look would be great with a open toe bootie as well.
For Day – The cool Fall days and nights are quickly upon us so we love that these shorts are super versatile when paired with a tight. We chose a patterned style (stylists own), but you can do an opaque Plush tight too. The military-esque details on this Rebecca Taylor sweater is perfected with it’s soft lilac color. Another way to wear the popular military style - YOUR way. Pair this cozy, easy yet sophisticated look with a rugged bootie or an over the knee, flat boot (available soon at shopchantal.com and in store at chantal.).
A statement bag is a must for all these looks. A gorgeous gold studded Crossbody bag from Treesje or if you dare, the Botkier Ava Slouchy Hobo in Metallic Mermaid would be amazing.
