I was able to debut my Versace x H & M leather jacket in Hong Kong last week, thanks to the chilly weather.
This is my first black leather jacket, and I’m really loving it! I had been hankering to own a really good leather jacket but just could not yet justify spending that amount for it, so this Versace x H&M is a very good substitute to satisfy that leather jacket “lusting”. Besides, living in the tropics does not call for owning more than 1 leather jacket– not because people won’t really get to wear it often (unless you actually like wearing a leather jacket inside the malls *and there are peeps who do*– and hopefully you aren’t sweating up a storm underneath it LOL), but because the leather itself can be easily ruined with our humid climate.
Earlier this year, I had bought myself a very thin pleather jacket in camel from another high street fashion brand. It had the thickness or rather thinness of regular fabric jacket so I am able to get more “wear” out of it.
This jacket I’ve actually been able to wear a bit more often in Manila and people have wondered about it– but when I let them touch the pleather, they were surprised to find that it’s so thin. And oh yeah I didn’t pay so much for it too– it is pleather after all!
I don’t know about you, but I really have taken a liking to leather jackets. My free time has been spent looking at leather jackets in LuisaViaRoma
. How about you? What’s your take on leather jackets?
