This time of year is always hard in Minnesota. The temperatures continue to dip below zero while the calendar starts teasing the arrival of Spring. I always find myself caught in a rut from a fashion perspective- I’m tired of my well worn winter wear but unable to start wearing spring dresses and sandals. This is also a time of year that reminds me how practical quality wardrobe staples are. Items that can be worn from Fall to Spring and still hold up over the years are keepers in my book.

Keeping this “lean closet” mentality in mind, I’ve started to be drawn towards leather. From a gorgeous and classic Cuyana tote to hip yet sturdy Frye slip ons, quality leather pieces are surely worth investing in. Leather is so gorgeous new yet tells a beautiful story as it ages. It is a material that can last a lifetime and only gets better with age. So whether you’re in the market for a new wardrobe staple or are looking for a beautiful gift, these curated finds may just begin your own love affair with leather.
